Closing Yucca Mountain by Todd Garvey Pdf

Passed in 1982, the Nuclear Waste Policy Act (NWPA) was an effort to establish an explicit statutory basis for the Dept. of Energy (DoE) to dispose of the nation's most highly radioactive nuclear waste. The NWPA requires DoE to remove spent nuclear fuel from commercial nuclear power plants and transport it to a permanent geologic repository. In 1987, Congress designated Yucca Mountain, NV (YM), as the repository. Contents of this report: Intro.; Establishing a Permanent Geologic Repository for High-Level Nuclear Waste and Spent Nuclear Fuel; YM and the Obama Admin.; Blue Ribbon Comm. on America's Nuclear Future; Withdrawal of the YM Construction License; NRC Halts YM License Review; The Future of YM. A print on demand report.

Final Environmental Impact Statement for a Geologic Repository for the Disposal of Spent Nuclear Fuel and High-level Radioactive Waste at Yucca Mountain, Nye County, Nevada: pt. 1. Comment-response document, Introduction, etc by Anonim Pdf

The purpose of this environmental impact statement (EIS) is to provide information on potential environmental impacts that could result from a Proposed Action to construct, operate and monitor, and eventually close a geologic repository for the disposal of spent nuclear fuel and high-level radioactive waste at the Yucca Mountain site in Nye County, Nevada. The EIS also provides information on potential environmental impacts from an alternative referred to as the No-Action Alternative, under which there would be no development of a geologic repository at Yucca Mountain.

Yucca Mountain by Crtd Asme Pdf

Yucca Mountain, Nevada is designated as the proposed geological repository for disposal of spent nuclear fuel (SNF) and high-level radioactive waste (HLW). The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is preparing a license application to be submitted to the U.S. Regulatory Committee (USNRC). The Waste Package Closure System (WPCS) project, as summarized in this report, addresses control-related subsystems needed to perform waste package closure-related operations. It includes technical requirements for the WPCS, including component design descriptions for the Welding and Inspection System, and Control and Data Management System. It also includes control functions and associated performance requirements for the Welding Process.
