Nuclear Waste: Impediments to Completing the Yucca Mountain Repository Project

  Premium   Download PDF Now (60 pages)
Report Type Reports and Testimonies
Report Date Jan. 17, 1997
Report No. RCED-97-30
Subject
Summary:

Congress is expressing growing concern about the pace, direction, and cost of the Department of Energy's (DOE) effort to permanently dispose of radioactive waste generated by civilian nuclear power plants and DOE's nuclear weapons programs. Central to the disposal effort is the investigation of Yucca Mountain, Nevada, as a possible site for a geologic repository to contain the waste. The perceived lack of progress on the repository project has led to renewed debate over the need for a federal facility to store waste until the repository has been built and a reduced allotment of appropriations for the project in fiscal year 1996. This report identifies the (1) adjustments DOE made to the disposal program because of the reduced appropriations and (2) potential impediments to achieving DOE's objectives and schedule for the repository project.
