ANSWER:
Contaminated clothing is not a high level radioactive waste but a low level radioactive waste.
EXPLANATION:
- Radio-active waste is any waste that contains radio-active material and is usually a "by-product" of nuclear reactions. Radio-active waste is considered to be hazardous for all forms of life as well as the environment.
- High level radio-active waste contains high levels of radio-active material and therefore must be disposed as soon as possible. Contaminated clothing has very low level of radio-active waste that can be removed by washing in appropriate medium.
