Integrating management of spent nuclear fuel in the United States by consolidating storage
The theme of the paper is that consolidated interim storage can provide an important integrating function between storage and disposal in the United States. Given the historical tension between consolidated interim storage and disposal in the United States, this paper articulates a rationale for consolidated interim storage. However, the paper concludes more effort could be expended on developing the societal aspects of the rationale, in addition to the technical and operational aspects of using consolidated interim storage.
