Acceptance Priority Ranking and Annual Capacity Report

From the Introduction: The Standard Contract requires the Department to issue an annual Acceptance Priority Ranking (APR) report and an Annual Capacity Report (ACR). The APR establishes the order in which the Department allocates the projected acceptance capacity for commercial spent nuclear fuel. The ACR applies projected nominal acceptance rates for the system to the APR, resulting in individual allocations for the owners and generators expressed in metric tons of uranium (MTU). These capacity allocations form the basis for the Purchasers' submittal of Delivery Commitment Schedules (DCS). As specified in the Standard Contract, the ACR is for planning purposes only and, thus, is not contractually binding on either DOE or the Purchasers.
