Spent Nuclear Fuel Canister Qualification Support

A publication of the Center for Research and Technology Development (CRTD). This report discusses the National Spent Nuclear Fuel (SNF) canisters for the handling and interim storage of SNF at various DOE sites, as well as the transport, handling, and disposal of SNF at the repository. The Project Team (PT), as part of a licensing support effect, has developed a comprehensive plan to assist DOE to meet USNRC licensing requirements for DOE's SNF canisters. The key components of the plan were presented to the Review Panel (RP) as the DOE SNF Canister Qualification Support Chart. The chart is periodically updated to reflect program status.
