Book Description
The Nuclear Waste Policy Act of 1982 directs the Department of Energy to complete a detailed study of the need for and feasibility of, and to submit to the Congress a proposal for, the construction of one or more monitored retrievable storage facilities for high level radioactive waste and spent nuclear fuel.'' The Act directs that the proposal includes site specific designs. Further, the proposal is to include, for the first such facility, at least three alternative sites and at least five alternative combinations of such proposed sites and facility designs {hor ellipsis}'' as well as a recommendation of the combination among the alternatives that the Secretary deems preferable.'' An MRS Site Screening Task Force has been formed to help identify and evaluate potential MRS facility sites within a preferred region and with the application of a siting process and criteria developed by the DOE. The activities of the Task Force presented in this report, all site evaluations (sections 13 through 16) where the rationale for the site evaluations are presented, along with each evaluation and findings of the Task Force. This is Volume 3 of a three volume document. References are also included in this volume.

Book Description
"This report responds to a request by the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission, dated November 7, 1972, to the Committee on Radioactive Waste Management (C R W M) of the National Academy of Sciences-National Research Council, for advice "concerning the AEC's concepts for the safe storage of high-level solidified waste for an interim period in an engineered storage vacility at or near the surface of the earth. A retrievable surface-storage facility (R S S F) for an interim period (not exceeding 100 years) is understood to be a provisional measure for use while procedures for long-term storage or ultimate disposal of wastes - as in deep geologic media - are being developed, proven, and adopted."--Preface.

Book Description
From joint meeting of the American Nuclear Society and the Atomic Industrial Forum and Nuclear Energy Exhibition; San Francisco, California, USA (11 Nov 1973). A Retrievable Surface Storage facility (RSSF) for the interim storage of solidified high-level nuclear wastes will be built for the USAEC at Richland to serve until a permanent waste repository is established. Design criteria for the RSSF are presented, and the three basic storage concepts currently being evaluated, i.e., storage in cooled water basins, in air-cooled concrete vaults, and in air-cooled steel casks, are discussed.
