Description
This is a scientific and technical review of the Department of Energy's Final Environmental Impact Statement on the Proposed Nuclear Weapons Nonproliferation Policy Concerning Foreign Research Reactor Spent Nuclear Fuel (FRR-SNF). The receipt of FRR-SNF adds an additional and important component to DOE's programmatic Spent Nuclear Fuel (SNF) activities. This review also looks at the EIS processes associated with the revised Surplus Plutonium Disposition initiatives. This analysis evaluates the EIS procedures associated with these two programs for consideration of NEPA requirements with particular emphasis on Environmental Justive. This review has identified deficiencies in DOE's EIS procedures and evaluates some of the problems arising there. This review analyzed the adequacy of the environmental impact assessment and public participation approaches taken by Department of Energy (DOE) as part of decision-making on spent fuel and surplus plutonium.
This research was completed money allocated during Round 1 of the Citizens’ Monitoring and Technical Assessment Fund (MTA Fund). Clark University was named conservator of these works.
