Monitored Retrievable Storage Facility Conceptual Design Report

Monitored Retrievable Storage Facility Conceptual Design Report

Author(s)
TRW Environmental Safety Systems, Inc.
Publication Date
This conceptual design report presents results of the monitored retrievable storage facility (MRS) conceptual design effort. Six design concepts were investigated for handling and storing spent nuclear fuel assemblies at the MRS and are presented in this report. All six of these design concepts satisfy program requirements and provide safe and efficient methods to handle and store spent nuclear fuel. This conceptual design is an important step towards furthering the civilian radioactive waste management system program.

The Design Criteria Policy Document will provide guidance on the types of Design Events, Design Basis Accidents, and Design Criteria for Important To Radiological Safety Systems, Structures, and Components (SSCs) to be assumed during the design of the MRS facility. Definitions of key terms associated with Design Events are also included with this document. Appropriate combinations of Design Events and criteria is identified.

The purpose of this report, and the information contained in the associated computerized data bases, is to establish the DOE/OCRWM reference characteristics of the radioactive waste materials that may be accepted by DOE for emplacement in the mined geologic disposal system as developed under the Nuclear Waste Policy Act of 1982. This report provides relevant technical data for use by DOE and its supporting contractors and is not intended to be a policy document.

The Office of Civilian Radioactive Waste Management (OCRWM) is responsible for all spent fuels and high-level wastes (HLW) that will eventually be disposed of in a geologic repository. The purpose of this document, and the information contained in the associated computerized data bases and supporting technical reports, is to provide the technical characteristics of the radioactive waste materials that will (or may) be accepted by DOE for interim storage in an MRS or emplacement in a repository as developed under the Nuclear Waste Policy Act Amendment of 1987.

The Department of Energy (DOE), pursuant to the Atomic Energy Act of 1954
as amended, the Energy Reorganization Act of 1974, the Department of Energy
Organization Act of 1977, and the Nuclear Waste Policy Act of 1982 (the Act),
has the responsibility to provide for the disposal of high-level radioactive
waste and spent nuclear fuel.* The DOE selected mined geologic repositories
as the preferred means for the disposal of commercially generated high-level
radioactive waste and spent fuel (Federal Register, Vol. 46, p. 26677, May 14,

Publication Date

In 2007 the OECD Nuclear Energy Agency (NEA) Radioactive Waste Management Committee
(RWMC) launched a four-year project on the topics of reversibility and retrievability in geological
disposal. The goal of the project studies and activities (www.oecd-nea.org/rwm/rr) was to
acknowledge the range of approaches to reversibility and retrievability (R&R), rather than to
recommend a specific approach, and to provide a basis for reflection rather than to lead towards
