Update of the Used Fuel Dispositon Campaign Implementation Plan

Mcmahon, Kevin A.; Bragg-Sitton, Shannon; Mackinnon, Robert J.; Saltzstein, Sylvia J.; Sorenson, Ken B.; Swift, Peter; Birkholzer, Jens T.

This Update to the Used Fuel Disposition Campaign Implementation Plan provides summary level detail describing how the Used Fuel Disposition Campaign (UFDC) supports achievement of the overarching mission and objectives of the Department of Energy Office of Nuclear Energy Fuel Cycle Technologies Program, building on work completed in this area since 2009. This implementation plan begins with the assumption of target dates that are set out in the January 2013 DOE Strategy for the Management and Disposal of Used Nuclear Fuel and High-Level Radioactive Waste (http://energy.gov/downloads/strategy-management-and-disposal-used-nuclearfuel- and-high-level-radioactive-waste). These target dates and goals are summarized in section III. This implementation plan will be maintained as a living document and will be updated as needed in response to available funding and progress in the Used Fuel Disposition Campaign and the Fuel Cycle Technologies Program.

Deep Borehole Disposal Research: Geological Data Evaluation Alternative Waste Forms and Borehole Seals

Arnold, Bill W.; Brady, Patrick V.; Sutton, Mark; Travis, Karl; Mackinnon, Robert J.; Gibb, Fergus; Greenberg, Harris

This report documents deep borehole disposal research during FY2014, as directed by U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Used Fuel Disposition (UFD) Campaign. These research efforts are principally directed at advancing the deep borehole disposal project to the implementation of a full-scale Research, Development, and Demonstration (RD&D) project. Activities of particular relevance to this goal include evaluation of guidelines for selection of a deep borehole field test site, analyses of deep borehole disposal of alternative waste forms, and technical planning for borehole seals research.
