Environmental effects from disposal of defense high-level radioactive wastes in a generic geologic repository

Description: High-level radioactive wastes generated during the reprocessing of defense-related nuclear fuels are presently stored as calcined solids at the Idaho Chemical Processing Plant (ICPP). This method of handling nuclear waste has proved to be both safe and cost effective. However, for permanent disposal, the waste form and/or disposal location may need to be altered. Many plans for nuclear waste management can be advanced; however, the preferered alternatives for the ICPP waste are in these general… more

Analysis of environmental effects from disposal of solidified ICPP high-level wastes

Description: This work is part of a comprehensive study to assess possible environmental impacts from six different options for managing high-level defense wastes generated at the ICPP. Only radiological consequences are considered in this report; population doses to those within 80 km of ICPP were estimated for time periods up to 100 million years. The population dose to future generations from any option is insignificant compared with that from natural background radiation: less than 1 cancer death in 1,0… more

What would happen if high-level nuclear wastes were stored near the surface of the earth

Description: Six major candidate long-range waste management options were analyzed to estimate possible individual and population exposures if any one of the six options were implemented. The exposures were calculated for incremental periods up to 100 million years after processing. Each option was examined for potential scenarios that might result in pathways to man. Operational releases, migrational losses, and intrusion were evaluated for release of radioactivity. Calculated doses at incremental periods … more
