Abstract
This inventory of high level nuclear waste in the US was prepared by the Nuclear Waste Management Division of Brookhaven National Laboratory for the Office of Nuclear Materials Safety and Safeguards of the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission. Existing and projected inventories of high level waste (HLW), transuranic (TRU) waste, and spent fuel will be required in making prudent decisions in the licensing of high level waste repositories. This report describes the quantity and characteristics of existing and projected HLW and TRU waste from the government nuclear programs, the existing HLW and TRU waste from the commercial power industry, and the existing and projected spent fuel from the commercial nuclear power industry.
