Public Preferences Related to Consent-Based Siting of Radioactive Waste Management Facilities for Storage and Disposal: Analyzing Variations over Time, Events, and Program Designs
Third International Conference on Applications of Radiation Science and Technology (ICARST-2025)
Event Location
IAEA Headquarters, Vienna, Austria
The purpose of ICARST-2025 is to provide a comprehensive review of significant developments in applications of radiation science and technology, as well as the state of the art in the field; assess national, regional, and global initiatives for implementing proven industrial applications of radiation science and technology; provide a composite platform where representatives from industry and academia can develop new initiatives; and chart a clear-cut pathway for the adoption of radiation technologies to achieve specific SDGs.
NUWCEM 2025
Event Location

Cementation is a widely applied technique for the conditioning of low – and intermediate – level radioactive wastes. However, specific issues have still to be addressed, such as the limitation of adverse cement-waste interactions which may affect the quality of the resulting solidified waste form, or the understanding and prediction of long-term properties of the waste packages and cement barriers.
A Historical Review of the Safe Transport of Spent Nuclear Fuel
The US Department of Energy (DOE) has since established the IWM, which builds on the work begun by NFST, to develop an integrated waste management system for spent nuclear fuel (SNF)a, including the development of a large-scale transportation system for the safe transport of SNF to storage or disposal facilities.
Nuclear Power Plant Infrastructure Evaluations for Removal of Spent Nuclear Fuel (2024)
This report fulfills the M3 milestone M3SF-23PN0203020614, “Updated NPP Site Evaluation Report (2).” This report is an update of the 2021 report Nuclear Power Plant Infrastructure Evaluations for Removal of Spent Nuclear Fuel and includes expansion of the site evaluations to include operating nuclear power plant (NPP) sites and to incorporate updated site inventory data. Figures that include the number of spent nuclear fuel (SNF) assemblies and metric tons heavy metal (MTHM) in a single figure have also been added to the report.
