Title: CSER 95-014: Criticality storage category for K Basin spent cartridge filters in ECOROK casks at central waste complex

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/463553· OSTI ID:463553

This CSER justifies storing K Basin spent cartridge filters in ECOROK 25-11 casks with liners under the limits in an existing criticality prevention specification, CPS-SW-149-00002, Rev./Mod. B-1, because the worst case fissionable material inventory is less then 1/2 the CPS limit and the cask is larger than allowed containers, the cask and liner have adequate iron content to meet the CPS requirements, and the cask concrete walls are thick enough to isolate the fissionable contents of each cask from neutron interaction with fissionable material external to each cask.
