IAEA, FT-04-020, and ANS 16.1, standard leaching test methods, were evaluated comparatively with their test results. Leaching index of $^{60}$ Co and $^{137}$ Cs by ANS 16.1 method for waste forms of paraffin and cement were above 6.0. Their leaching behavior were depending on the type of matrix and leachant. Leachability of $^{60}$ Co for cement waste form was higher in simulated seawater than do-mineralized water, and was higher in de-mineralized water for paraffin waste form. leachability of $^{60}$ Co was contrary to $^{137}$ Cs. Cumulative fraction leached of $^{60}$ Co was higher in order or IAEA ＞ ANS ＞ FT in a cement waste form.

IAEA, FT-04-020, and ANS 16.1, standard leaching test methods, were evaluated comparatively with their test results. Leaching index of Co-60 and Cs-137 for all waste forms were above 6.0. Their leaching behavior were contrary according to the type of matrix and leachant. Leachability of Co in cement waste form was higher in simulated seawater than demi. water, and higher in demi. water in paraffin waste form. Leachability of Cs was contrary to Cs. Cumulative fraction leached of Co was higher such as IAEA＞ANS＞FT in cement waste form.
