Preliminary reference waste descriptions for a repository at Yucca Mountain, Nevada
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:59538
This report describes the reference waste forms and containers for the early stages of conceptual design of a radioactive waste repository being considered for location in the tuff formations at Yucca Mountain, Nye County, Nevada. An assessment of the effects of nonreference waste characteristics on repository design is included. The report is based on the premise that repository would receive 50% spent fuel and 50% commercial high-level waste. Future information will be developed based on the current guidance that the repository would receive 100% spent fuel. 8 references, 2 figures, 3 tables.
