What type of materials require special attention during the decommission process?

The type of materials that require special attention during the decommission process is radioactive materials. This is because radioactive materials pose significant health and safety risks due to their potential to emit radiation. Proper handling, storage, and disposal are essential to prevent exposure to individuals and contamination of the environment. Regulatory guidelines dictate stringent protocols for the management of these materials to ensure that they do not pose a risk to public health or the ecosystem.

In contrast, final project reports, common office supplies, and biodegradable waste do not carry the same level of risk associated with radiation. While all materials should be managed responsibly, the specific hazards associated with radioactive materials necessitate specialized training and procedures that are not applicable to the other materials listed.
