About Radwaste Solutions

Radwaste Solutions is a bimonthly specialty magazine containing articles that discuss practical approaches and solutions to everyday problems and issues in all fields of radioactive waste management and facility remediation.

Copy & Contract Requirements

Advertiser and advertising agency assume liability for all content (including text, representation, and illustrations) of advertisement printed, and also assume responsibility for any claims arising therefrom made against the publisher.  The publisher reserves the right to reject any advertising that is not in keeping with the publication's specifications.

Issuance and Closing Dates

Published bimonthly by the American Nuclear Society.  The magazine is typically mailed no later than the 15th of the first month of combined publication (e.g. the May/June issue will be in the mail by May 15).  Cancellations are NOT accepted after the ad space reservation deadline for a given issue.

Agency Commission

Provided account is paid within 60 days from the month in which the advertisement appeared, 15% of gross billing on space, color, and position will be allowed to recognized agencies.  Other items such as back-up, tip-in, and similar production items, or the cost of artwork and reprints, are noncommissionable.

General Rate Policy

Advertisers will be short-rated if, within the calendar year of the first insertion, they do not use the amount of space upon which their billings have been established.  Advertisers will be rebated if, within the calendar year of the first insertion, they have used sufficient additional space to warrant a lower rate than that at which they have been previously billed.

Frequency Discount

Frequency discounts apply to all insertions without respect to mixed sizes.  Earned rate is based on total number of insertions within the calendar year.  Spreads count as two insertions.
