Progress in the Verification and Validation Efforts for START: A Spent Fuel Routing Tool

Abstract

The US Department of Energys Office of Nuclear Energy is planning for an integrated waste management approach to transport, store, and eventually dispose of spent nuclear fuel and other high-level radioactive waste as part of the Integrated Waste Management program. In support of this effort, the Stakeholder Tool for Assessing Radioactive Transportation is being developed within the IWM program. This is a web-based decision support tool that can be used to analyze geospatial data related to the transportation of SNF and HLW.Comment: Presented at the '2023 ANS Winter Conference and Expo
