NRC SFST ISG-17: Interim Storage of Greater Than Class C Waste

Guidance is necessary on the interim storage of greater than Class C (GTCC) waste due to the
revision of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) Part 72. The revision to 10
CFR Part 72 is documented in final rule, ìInterim Storage for GTCC Waste,î and permits the
storage of GTCC wastes at independent spent fuel storage installations (ISFSI) or monitored
retrievable storage (MRS) facilities. The GTCC wastes, if stored at an ISFSI, must be in solid
form, and stored in a separate container (i.e., GTCC waste may not be stored in a cask that
also contains spent fuel).
