Spent Fuel Management Report Published
05 October 2007
The NDA made a commitment in its 2006 Strategy to carry out an assessment of the full life-cycle implications of spent fuel management. This assessment was completed by a Contractor of the NDA, Environmental Resources Management (ERM) and Integrated Decision Management (IDM), and a report describing the study is now available. This assessment intentionally makes no option recommendations.
It is being used to inform the NDA’s approach to spent fuel management, and includes an assessment of the risks and opportunities associated with three broad scenarios: disposal, storage or use. The work being carried out by the NDA will ultimately give rise to a range of recommended policy options to be presented to Government. These policy recommendations will take into account the life-cycle financial, safety, security and environmental assessment of the range of options available for spent fuel management.
In July 2007, the NDA also published the Nuclear Materials Macro-Economic Study, which should be considered to be a sister study of this latest Spent Fuel work.
