Korean Second National Report Under the Joint Convention on the Safety of Spent Fuel Management and on the Safety of Radioactive Waste Management, Korean Implementation of the Obligations of the Joint Convention Second Review Meeting
The Korean government has maintained a consistent national policy for stable energy supply by fostering nuclear power industries under the insufficient energy resources in the country. Nuclear power reached approximately 40 % of total domestic electricity generation. Since the commencement of the first commercial operation of Kori Unit 1 in April 1978, 20 units of NPPs are commercially operating as of October 2005. Four units out of the 20 operating NPPs are Pressurized Heavy Water Reactors (PHWRs) at Wolsong.

Geological Problems in Radioactive Waste Isolation Second Worldwide Review Part 1 Ch 1 - 9
The first world wide review of the geological problems in radioactive waste isolation was published by Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory in 1991. This review was a compilation of reports that had been submitted to a workshop held in conjunction with the 28th International Geological Congress that took place July 9-19,1989 in Washington, D.C.

Spent Fuel Storage Requirements 1991-2040
Spent Fuel Storage Requirements 1991-2040
Historical inventories of spent fuel are combined with U.S Department of Energy (DOE) projections of future discharges from commercial nuclear reactors in the United States to provide estimates of spent fuel storage requirements over the next 50 years, through the year 2040. The needs for storage capacity beyond that presently available in the pools are estimated. These estimates incorporate the maximum capacities within current-and planned in-pool storage facilities and any planned transshipments of fuel to ther reactors or, facilities.
WHITE PAPER Regarding OPPOSITION TO THE HIGH-LEVEL NUCLEAR WASTE STORAGE FACILITY Proposed By PRIVATE FUEL STORAGE On The SKULL VALLEY BAND OF GOSHUTE INDIAN RESERVATION SKULL VALLEY, UTAH
WHITE PAPER Regarding OPPOSITION TO THE HIGH-LEVEL NUCLEAR WASTE STORAGE FACILITY Proposed By PRIVATE FUEL STORAGE On The SKULL VALLEY BAND OF GOSHUTE INDIAN RESERVATION SKULL VALLEY, UTAH
There are no nuclear power plants in Utah. Despite that, Utah is targeted to be the site of the largest facility ever licensed for storage of spent nuclear fuel rods (high-level nuclear waste) from nuclear power plants. This proposed site would store up to 40,000 metric tons of spent nuclear fuel. The storage of this amount of waste in one location is equivalent to all the commercial spent nuclear fuel rods in the United States. The Federal government has responsibility for permanently storing this high-level nuclear waste, but after 18 years, it has missed the deadline.

Annual Report 2010 on Radiation and Nuclear Safety in the Republic of Slovenia
Annual Report 2010 on Radiation and Nuclear Safety in the Republic of Slovenia
In 2010, there were no events that posed a serious radiological threat to the population in Slovenia. There were also no particularities in relation to the services of radiation practices and operators of radiation facilities.
The Krško NPP operated without shutdowns and production was interrupted only for the annual outage. In 2010, the power plant produced 5.7 TWh in total and achieved 89.9% availability. The nuclear power plant had no major problems during the September floods, when the Sava river otherwise seriously threatened settlements in Posavje.
