Recent events have renewed long-standing congressional interest in
safe management of spent nuclear fuel (SNF) and other high level
nuclear waste. These issues have been examined and debated for
decades, sometimes renewed by world events like the 9/11 terrorist
attacks. The incident at the Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear reactor
complex in Japan, combined with the termination of the Yucca
Mountain geologic repository project, have contributed to the
increased interest. This book focuses on the current situation with
spent nuclear fuel storage in the United States. It addresses the
SNF storage situation, primarily at current and former reactor
facilities and former reactor sites for the potentially foreseeable
future. Although no nation has yet established a permanent disposal
repository for SNF and other forms of high-level radioactive waste,
there is broad consensus that a geological repository is the
preferred method for these wastes.
