Hosting a Nuclear Facility: Mayors Discuss Role of Community Engagement
Hosting a Nuclear Facility: Mayors Discuss Role of Community Engagement
Engaging local stakeholders through transparent and open dialogue is pivotal for the success of nuclear projects. Engagement requires time, trust-building and adaptability as expectations evolve. In many places, communities that initially expressed scepticism or opposition have become advocates because of this engagement and better understanding of what it means to host a nuclear facility.

A Journey Through a Hypothetical Consolidated Interim Storage Facility
The hypothetical facility shown in this animation has not been sited or licensed. It is one concept intended only to demonstrate what a potential federal consolidated interim storage facility for commercial spent nuclear fuel could look like based on a set of operating assumptions.

Survey of National Programs for Managing High-Level Radioactive Waste and Spent Nuclear Fuel: 2022 Update
Survey of National Programs for Managing High-Level Radioactive Waste and Spent Nuclear Fuel: 2022 Update
In October 2009, the U.S. Nuclear Waste Technical Review Board (Board or NWTRB) published Survey of National Programs for Managing High-Level Radioactive Waste and Spent Nuclear Fuel. For each of the 13 national programs studied, the report catalogued 15 institutional arrangements that had been set in place and 15 technical approaches that had been taken to design repository systems for the long-term management of high-activity radioactive waste.

Six Overarching Recommendations for How to Move the Nation’s Nuclear Waste Management Program Forward
Six Overarching Recommendations for How to Move the Nation’s Nuclear Waste Management Program Forward
The goal of this report is to communicate high-level recommendations to the U.S. Department of
Energy (DOE), which if adopted, the U.S. Nuclear Waste Technical Review Board (Board)
members believe will support the creation of a robust, safe, and effective nuclear waste
management capability for the nation, including laying the groundwork for a successful geologic
repository. The DOE nuclear waste management program encompasses the management and
disposal of spent nuclear fuel (SNF) and high-level radioactive waste (HLW), in addition to the
