Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6127803
Activities of the Department of Energy's nuclear waste program for the quarter ending December 1986 included (1) emphasis placed on preparing site characterization plans which will provide the basis for deciding on the preferred site for the nation's first nuclear waste repository; (2) the establishment of a Repository Technology and Transportation Division to manage responsibilities concerning high-level waste; (3) a ruling that DOE is not required to consult with any state before it submits the monitored retrievable storage proposal to the Congress; and (4) the collection of over $175.2 million in fees and investment income by the Nuclear Waste Fund and its obligation of about $171 million for program activities. In addition, DOE released the nuclear waste program's planning document amendment which extends for 5 years its target date for beginning repository operations from 1998 to 2003.
