Nuclear Waste Disposal: Policy Briefs
Briefing papers that provide the industry's positions on issues related to nuclear waste management and disposal.
A Federal Corporation Should Be Developed to Manage Used Nuclear Fuel
The nuclear industry supports establishing a self-sustaining, quasi-government entity—a federal corporation (Fed Corp)—to manage the federal government’s responsibilities for used reactor fuel and radioactive waste management. Such an institutional framework must be capable of withstanding political changes and maintaining public trust over the long life of the program.
Advanced Fuel-Cycle Technologies Hold Promise for Used Fuel Management Program
The resurgence of nuclear energy has renewed policymaker interest in advanced nuclear fuel-cycle technologies. These technologies could reduce the volume and toxicity of the nuclear waste byproducts requiring disposal.
Industry Supports Integrated Used Fuel Management Strategy
The industry supports an integrated strategy for managing used nuclear fuel that includes interim storage, recycling and disposal.
