Norris, R J

The Test Area North Hot Shop Storage Pool contains 343 canisters of core debris from Three Mile Island, plus 13 fuel modules from the Loss-of-Fluid Test Reactor and a small number of commercial fuel rods and assemblies owned by the Department of Energy. The Dry Cask Storage Project will remove this fuel from the pool and place it in storage casks for retention until the proposed Federal Spent Fuel Repository''is opened. This Conceptual Design Report and project proposal is a compilation of information for use in evaluating the Dry Cask Storage Project for Line Item funding and construction beginning in 1993. The Document is presented in two volumes: Volume 1 contains sections I through 15 and is intended to be a stand-alone summary of information on the Line Item Construction Project. Volume 2 contains Appendices A through G, presenting more detailed project information on design, cost, schedule, and environmental impact.
