This article outlines the three stages of the destruction process: setting up Destruction Lots/sublots, destroying waste, and closing/destroying the Destruction Lots. The Destroying Waste section of this article is not an ordered list; destruction processes occur in multiple places in both the Gun App and web platform, and the Destroying Waste section is a list of every possible way to destroy and restore waste. The user may complete any of the processes in the Destroying Waste section before moving on to The Closing/Destroying section.
Setting up Destruction Lots
Before destroying waste, the user must set up the Destruction Lots, sublots, and destruction vessels that will house the material to be destroyed.
- Create a Destruction Lot
- Create a sublot–also known as a child lot–for the Destruction Lot. A sublot may be a single-use container or a reusable vessel. Label each sublot/child lot.
Destroying Waste
The Destroying Waste section of this article is not an ordered list; destruction processes occur in multiple modules in both the Gun App and Seed-to-Sale web platform, and this section lists all possible ways to destroy and restore waste. The user may complete any of the processes for waste destruction before moving on to the Closing/Destroying section.

Closing/Destroying the Destruction Lot
Waste is not truly destroyed until the Destruction Lot is closed and destroyed. If a Destruction Lot is closed, no additional waste can go into it. A closed Destruction Lot can be reopened. However, destroying a Destruction Lot is irreversible.
- Close all sublots within the Destruction Lot, and then close the Destruction Lot itself. This can be done on both the Web App and the Gun App.
- Destroy the Destruction Lot.
