1999 Design Basis Waste Input Report for Commercial Spent Nuclear Fuel

The purpose of this document is to provide waste quantity and sequencing information that serves as the design basis for commercial spent nuclear fuel (CSNF) arriving at the repository, and the information on the transportation systems that will be used to deliver this fuel. It is intended as input for waste package and repository design analyses needed to ensure that facilities are flexible enough to be capable of receiving, unloading, handling, and emplacing the amounts and types of CSNF expected for receipt under realistic bounding conditions. It must be recognized that within the bounding limits, there will be CSNF with characteristics different from those described in this document , that must still be accepted into the Civilian Radioactive Waste Management System (CRWMS).
