Office of Civilian Radioactive Waste Management annual capacity report
The Standard Contract for Disposal of Spent Nuclear Fuel and/or High-Level Radioactive Waste (10 CFR Part 961) requires the Department of Energy (DOE) to issue an Annual Capacity Report (ACR) for planning purposes. This report is the fourth in the series published by DOE. In December 1991, the Department published the 1991 Acceptance Priority Ranking (APR) that established the order in which the Department will allocate acceptance capacity. As required by the Standard Contract, the priority ranking for acceptance capacity is based on the date the spent nuclear fuel (SNF) was permanently discharged, with the owners of the oldest SNF, on an industry-wide basis, given the highest priority. The 1991 ACR applies the waste acceptance rates in the 1991 APR, resulting in individual Purchaser allocations. These allocations are listed and summarized. The projected waste acceptance rates for SNF presented assume: a site for a Monitored Retrievable Storage (MRS) facility will be obtained and the facility will be obtained and the facility will initiate operations in 1998; and the statutory schedule linkages between the MRS facility and the repository set forth in the Nuclear Waste Policy of 1982, as amended (NWPA) will be modified.
