        It is important to make a strategy for clearance-level radioactive waste. Sampling and disposal plans should be drawn up with characteristics of target waste. In this paper, a target clearance-level radioactive waste is used in a laboratory for experiments with Cs-137 and Co-60, unsealed radioactive sources with gamma radiation isotopes. Therefore, it is enough to analyze with HPGe to check the contaminant level. The laboratory fume hood combined multiple materials, which means some are volume contamination and others are surface contamination. The wood, plastic, and drywall boards, which are absorbent volume contaminated parts and make up PVC pipes, base cabinet doors, backside baffles, etc., will be sampled with coring methods. The metals and glasses, which are unabsorbent, surface-contaminated parts, are sampled with smear methods. The work surface, baffles, exhaust plenum, and glass sash inside parts have a high possibility of being contaminated. The hood body, flame, base cabinet, PVC pipe (the rare end of the filter), and blower transition case have a low possibility of becoming contaminated. When we checked with HPGe, except for the work surface (which was below clearance level), other parts were less than MDA. The highest radionuclide concentration was in PVC pipe: Cs-137C 3.91E-02 (Bq/g), Co-60 4.54E- 03 (Bq/g). It is less than clearance level. Therefore, the waste was applied for the clearance level radioactive wastes and got permission from the regulatory body.
