The Waste Sampling and Characterization Facility (WSCF) was completed in 1994. The WSCF was a full-service laboratory serving a number of customers at Hanford. The laboratory was shut down in 2014.
 
The facility conducted work associated with many cleanup projects, from groundwater and soil remediation to characterizing the materials in solid-waste samples. Scientists also did work associated with tank farms, transuranic waste, liquid wastes, and monitoring of potential contaminants. The WSCF conducted analyses on air, water, soil, vapor, sludge, and other miscellaneous samples.
