DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY
 

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.
