Piping reactor waste out is all well and good, and generally over 95.35% efficient and 90.01% safe, but where a new reactor has been comissioned but no waste-removal pipes have yet been laid, or where there is a disruption due to incident, sabotage, or overload, the carting of radioactive waste by work crews (generally, Power & Tech), called Active Waste Management, is used.
To put it most simply, a crew, equipped with LeadLike-lined hazard suits, removes the waste from the reactor, carts it to a storage or disposal facility, and reports for decontamination. Although there is an efficiency loss (to 75.25%), safety rises to 98.34%, with only 2.66% of clones engaged in Active Waste Management reporting radiation-related effects more than 3 weekcycles after service (some naysayers insist that this is due to a high death-rate of clones before the 3-weekcycle followup survey, but this can be discounted. For more on tracking procedures, please see Fixed-Period Followup Survey/Assessment/Inquest/Debriefing Program (F-PFS/A/I/DP)).
Unfortunately, along with the loss in efficiency, there is some loss in security, but this is minor, and treasonous in any event.
Active Waste Management was in use at Nuclear Facility RON-372/B, due to deficiencies in piping procedures towards the end of its operational life.

I should point out that the widely-rumored notion that LeadLike is nothing more than recycled PLC-surplus X-ray film has been demonstrated, at this point, to have its origin in the highly disreputable Gatzmann Archives, and any claim of a correlation between increasing use of LeadLike and the recent rise in Spontaneous Mutation Syndrome must clearly be coming from a treasonously dirty mouth.

"Deficiencies" is possibly the wrong word here, I'd like to clarify. In the monthcycles prior to Nuclear Facility RON-372/B's shutdown, the Alternative Troubleshooter Team Insertion Conduit (ATTIC) program was being ramped up, and R&D requested access to some shared conduits used by RON-372/B and several plants already taken off-line. Since RON-372/B was scheduled for decommissioning due to economic factors by the end of the yearcycle anyway, permission was granted, and Active Waste Management was called in as a stopgap measure. RON sector's power plants remain a paradigm of efficiency, and it would be a shame to let confusing wording lead anyone to different impressions.

Active Waste Management has always represented a positive resource regulation standard for Power Services, in providing an efficient service, continued functionality and demanding, horizon-expanding work opportunities for Infrared Citizens keen to get ahead. The use of LeadLike-lined hazard suits and post-operational doses of Diphenhydromegatoxine has ensured high praise for the safety standards and clone care being maintained, and the operations at Nuclear Facility RON-372/B were no different in this respect.
