Commercial Nuclear Waste Research and Development Program. Quarterly report, April-June 1985
Support was provided to DOE/NV during preparation of a proposal, requested by the DOE San Francisco office, for performance of SP-100 Ground Engineering Systems tests at the E-MAD facility. The site selection committee visited the Nevada Test Site in May for a tour and briefings on all aspects of the proposal. The fuel assembly used in the two-year metal cask simulation test was removed from the test stand and characterized to document its post-test condition. Fuel assembly integrity monitoring for the second half of FY 1985 was completed of six of the fuel assemblies being stored in unwelded canisters. Post-storage characterization was completed on three fuel assemblies which were stored in welded canisters. All test procedures have been completed and delivered for the Canister Assembly Launch Test Program being conducted at another Area 25 facility. The "Safety Assessment Document for Spent Fuel Handling, Packaging, and Storage Demonstrations at the E-MAD Facility on the Nevada Test Site," DOE/NV10250-20, was revised to be consistent with new and revised DOE Orders and Directives, and delivered to DOE/NV.
