Performance Specification: This performance specification document addresses use of a standardized transportation, aging, and
disposal (STAD) canister system in the spent nuclear fuel (SNF) waste management system. This
document was developed to support STAD canister system studies and potential research, development,
and demonstration activities. Requirements in this specification may evolve with time based on results
from analyses, experiments, design studies, system evaluations and demonstrations, as well as other
factors.
