Strategy, Thermal Management

Strategy, the Engineered Barrier

System

Pursuant to its authority under

section 5051 of Public Law 100–203, the

Nuclear Waste Policy Amendments Act

of 1987, the Nuclear Waste Technical

Review Board will hold its summer

public and will begin at 8:30 a.m. both

Energy’s (DOE) advanced conceptual

design for a potential deep geologic

repository for spent nuclear fuel and

defense high-level radioactive waste at

Yucca Mountain, Nevada; new

radionuclide release standards for

Yucca Mountain (based on the National

updates on environmental impact

statement scoping studies for the DOE’s

high-level nuclear waste program and

exploratory facility construction at

Yucca Mountain (including tunnel

boring machine operations). The Board

outline being developed by the DOE for

license application to construct a

repository, should the Yucca Mountain

site be found suitable.

Time will be set aside on the agenda

for comments and questions from the

public. To ensure that everyone wishing

Board encourages those who have

comments to sign the Public Comment

The Nuclear Waste Technical Review

Board was created by Congress in the

Nuclear Waste Policy Amendments Act

of 1987 to ealuate the technical and

scientific validity of activities

undertaken by the DOE in its program

to manage the disposal of the nation’s

spent nuclear fuel and defense highlevel waste. In that same legislation,

Congress directed the DOE to

characterize a site at Yucca Mountain,

Nevada, for its suitability as a potential

location for a permanent repository for

the disposal of that waste.

Transcripts of the meeting will be

available on computer disk or on a

library-loan basis in paper format from
