Guidance concerning regulatory requirements for criticality analysis of new and spent fuel storage at light-water reactor power plants used by the Reactor Systems Branch.
This memo sets forth the Office of Standard Contract Management's current estimate of the US Government's liability in connection with the Government's partial breach of the "standard contracts" that it executed pursuant to the NWPA of 1982. The Office of Standard Contract Management estimates that liability, as of today and based on the analysis and qualifications set forth below, to be $15.4 billion.

U.S Court of Federal Claims Senior Judge James F. Merow issued a favorable ruling on September 30, 2006 for the three former Yankee nuclear power plants in their litigation with the federal government over its failure to remove used nuclear fuel from the three New England sites. Yankee Vice- President and Chief Financial Officer Michael Thomas said, “While the Court’s decision will need to be reviewed and evaluated, the Yankee companies’ initial reaction to the monetary award is very positive.
The Connecticut Yankee Atomic Power Company (CY) today announced that it has been notified by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) that its former plant site has been decommissioned in accordance with NRC procedures and regulations. The NRC has formally approved Connecticut Yankee’s Final Status Survey Reports in accordance with the License Termination Plan. The site under the federal license is now reduced to the approximately 5 acres surrounding the Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation site.

Presentation to Nuclear Waste Technical Review Board. Summarizes work performed for the EPRI report TR-101988 published in 1993 by EPRI. This examines a universal canister concept as well as a universal cask concept, and performs a systems analysis. Prepared by E.R. Johnson Associates Inc.
A comprehensive, integrated data and analysis tool—the Used Nuclear Fuel-Storage, Transportation & Disposal Analysis Resource and Data System (UNF-ST&DARDS) —is being developed for the US DOE Office of Nuclear Energy (DOE-NE) Nuclear Fuels Storage and Transportation Planning Project (NFST). The overarching goal of UNF-ST&DARDS is to provide a comprehensive controlled source of technical data integrated with key analysis capabilities to characterize inputs to the overall US waste management system from reactor power production through ultimate disposition.

This paper assesses the feasibility of direct disposal of loaded dual-purpose canisters (DPCs) from a criticality standpoint by evaluating attributes that could be credited to justify that the DPCs remain subcritical over a repository performance period. This study investigates the uncredited criticality margin associated with actual fuel loading compared with the regulatory licensing design basis limits and evaluates the percentage of DPCs that remain subcritical solely based on the uncredited criticality margin.
House of Representatives Letter to Secretary of Energy regarding split of defense and commercial nuclear waste disposal.
Social Scientists such as Hank Jenkins-Smith from the University of Oklahoma have suggested that the structured evaluation of beliefs and preferences measured in annual survey and social media data streams can assist program managers in making nuclear facility siting programs responsive and adaptive to the evolution of nuclear narratives. This presentation will provide an engineering and project management perspective on how ongoing social science research can be used.
