Assumptions and Methodology Document for the Spent Nuclear Fuel

Management Cost Evaluation

AGENCY: Department of Energy.

ACTION: Notice of availability.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Department of Energy has issued an Assumptions and

Methodology Document for a cost evaluation of the management of Spent

Nuclear Fuel, which discusses the assumptions and methodologies that

will be used by the Department in preparing a cost evaluation report.

The Department invites interested agencies, organizations, and the

general public to provide comments on the Assumptions and Methodology

Document.

DATES: All comments on the Assumptions and Methodology Document are due

by September 30, 1994. The Department will consider all comments

received before preparing the Cost Evaluation Report, scheduled for

release in April, 1995.

ADDRESSES: The Assumptions and Methodology Document is available in

Department of Energy Public Reading Rooms and Information Locations,

which are listed below. Comments should be sent to: Public Comment on

the Assumptions and Methodology Document, Attention: Brooks

Weingartner, DOE Idaho Operations Office, P.O. Box 1625, Idaho Falls,

Idaho, 83402-1625. Copies of the Assumptions and Methodology Document

may be obtained by writing to the above address, or by calling 1-800-

682-5583.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mr. Brooks Weingartner, U.S.

Department of Energy, Idaho Operations Office, 850 Energy Plaza, MS

2518, Idaho Falls, Idaho, 83401, at (208) 526-7043.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: During the last fifty years, the Department

of Energy has engaged in extensive nuclear energy operations that have

made large contributions to our national defense and knowledge of

nuclear technology. In the process, substantial quantities of spent

nuclear fuel were generated. The Department must manage that spent

nuclear fuel, and a much smaller amount that will be generated over the

next 40 years, until final decisions about its ultimate disposition are

made.

In June 1994, the Department issued the Department of Energy

Programmatic Spent Nuclear Fuel Management and Idaho National

Engineering Laboratory Environmental Restoration and Waste Management

Programs Draft Environmental Impact Statement (SNF & INEL EIS) (DOE/

EIS-0203-D) for review and comment. A Notice of Availability was issued

on June 24, 1994 (59 FR 32688). The SNF & INEL EIS evaluates potential

environmental impacts that may occur under several different

alternatives for managing spent nuclear fuel over the next 40 years.

Potential monetary costs associated with implementing the spent

nuclear fuel management alternatives will be considered in the

Department's decision-making on the alternatives identified in the EIS.

The Cost Evaluation Report will also contain other information (for

example, estimated costs of disposal in a geologic repository) which

will be useful in the Department's efforts to establish baseline

estimates for life-cycle program costs.

Such information is relevant to the Department's environmental

restoration and waste management responsibilities and is being

consolidated into the Baseline Environmental Management Report to be

issued later this year.

Cost Evaluation Report

The Department is seeking public input on the Assumptions and

Methodology Document, which is to be used in preparing the Cost

Evaluation Report. The Cost Evaluation Report will be made available to

the public before the EIS Record of Decision is issued in June 1995.

Portions of this evaluation are among the many factors that will be

considered by the Department when preparing the EIS Record of Decision.

Scope of the Cost Evaluation

The Assumptions and Methodology Document presents the approach to

be used in developing the cost evaluation, which has two primary

purposes: to compare the monetary costs of the alternatives discussed

in the SNF and INEL EIS and to explore estimated life-cycle costs to be

used as relevant information to the Department's environmental

restoration and waste management responsibilities. The Cost Evaluation

Report will address a reasonable range of potential spent nuclear fuel

management project expenses, which (depending upon the alternative)

include potential costs for research and development, plant and

equipment, operations and maintenance, capital/construction,

decommissioning and decontamination, and potential costs associated

with disposal. Some spent nuclear fuel management decisions may not be

made for several years. Future selection of technologies or decisions

on how to prepare some fuels for storage or disposition, for example,

may significantly affect cost. Therefore, only relative predictions of

these costs can be made at this time.

Assumptions:

The assumptions used in the Assumptions and Methodology Document

cover three tiers:

Tier 1: Programmatic assumptions reflecting current Department policies

and directives.

Tier 2: Implementation of site-specific assumptions reflecting a site-

specific planning basis.

Tier 3: Technical assumptions based on expert knowledge and local

conditions.

Assumptions will be based on:

When, where, and how spent nuclear fuel will be managed

and dispositioned

Technologies and requirements for stabilization (including

processing), storage, transport, and licensing

The time frame required for various factors in managing

spent nuclear fuel.

Facility lifespan, upgrades, new building, decontamination

and decommissioning.

Methodology:

The Assumptions and Methodology Document is intended to provide a

methodology for a relative comparison of costs that could be involved

in Department of Energy spent nuclear fuel management. The DOE sites

already engaged in spent nuclear fuel management activities will be

evaluated to determine the feasibility of utilizing existing facilities

and the costs of operating and maintaining those facilities. Certain

functions or facilities are not available at all sites under all

management strategies and alternatives. Generic facility descriptions

and associated costs will be developed to fill the gap between existing

and needed facilities.

To define the possible spread of costs for each alternative. To the

extent practicable, estimates will be based upon historic data;

analyses of similar activities and projecting cost to provide estimates

for new actions; use of estimates developed in other programs that

address some aspect of spent nuclear fuel management; and expert

opinion.
