Book excerpt: The study reported herein contains the results of Task 1 of a four-task study entitled Criteria for Evaluating Engineered Facilities. The overall objective of this study is to ensure that the criteria needed to evaluate five alternative low-level radioactive waste (LLW) disposal methods are available to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) and the Agreement States. The alternative methods considered are belowground vaults, aboveground vaults, earth mounded concrete bunkers, mined cavities, and augered holes. Each of these alternatives is either being used by other countries for low-level radioactive waste (LLW) disposal or is being considered by other countries or US agencies. In this report the performance requirements are listed, each alternative is described, the experience gained with its use is discussed, and the performance capabilities of each method are addressed. Next, the existing 10 CFR Part 61 Subpart D criteria with respect to paragraphs 61.50 through 61.53, pertaining to site suitability, design, operations and closure, and monitoring are assessed for applicability to evaluation of each alternative. Preliminary conclusions and recommendations are offered on each method's suitability as an LLW disposal alternative, the applicability of the criteria, and the need for supplemental or modified criteria.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Current practice in the US for disposal of commercial low-level radioactive waste (LLW) is shallow land burial (SLB). However, several alternative disposal methods utilizing engineered facilities are possible and may be considered for licensing in coming years. One such method is disposal in mined cavities. Any disposal method, current or alternative, must satisfy Performance Objectives for land disposal of LLW as set forth in Part C of 10 CFR 61. Underground excavations comprise mines and tunnels. Mines excavated by the open-stoping or room-and-pillar method are the best adapted for storage or disposal purposes. There are many important differences between the underground environment of a mined cavity and the environment of SLB or other near-surface alternatives. Thus, technical criteria for evaluating mined-cavity disposal facilities may be expected to differ markedly from those appropriate for near-surface facilities. For instance, criteria dealing with strictly surface geological processes are not applicable to mined cavities. The details of important matters such as protection from ground-water intrusion of the wastes must be addressed in fundamentally different ways. About half of the existing 10 CFR 61 technical criteria, however, are still directly or generally applicable to mined-cavity disposal. Existing criteria are considered one by one in this report, and a recommendation is offered in each case as to acceptance, modification, substitution, or deletion of a criterion for the purpose of application to mined-cavity disposal. Matters that need to be considered in the formulation of supplemental criteria are discussed. Certain matters present technical questions that are unresolved at the present time. Suggestions for further research that may aid in the resolution of these issues are offered.
