Washington DC: The National Academies Press 2003. Presumed First Edition First printing. Wraps. Very good. xiii 1 201 1 pages. Illustrations. Occasional footnotes. Recommendations. References. Glossary Format is approximately 8.5 inches by 11 inches. Recent decades have witnessed a continuing worldwide debate on the management of radioactive high-level waste and recent developments including both major advances and setbacks in various countries have led to an intensification of this debate. Geologic disposal involves placing high-level waste in a carefully selected deep underground repository where it remains isolated from the accessible environment for very long time periods until the waste no longer represents a hazard to humans or to the accessible environment. Disposal in a carefully sited and designed geologic repository is recognized by most of the international technical community including the National Research Council as a long-term management option for high-level waste that provides a high degree of safety and security. However geologic disposal of high-level waste has proven to be a major challenge for many nations. Delays and setbacks have been common often attributable to the difficulties of simultaneously addressing technical and societal challenges. High-level waste HLW is a type of nuclear waste created by the reprocessing of spent nuclear fuel. It exists in two main forms: First and second cycle raffinate and other waste streams created by nuclear reprocessing. Waste formed by vitrification of liquid high-level waste. Liquid high-level waste is typically held temporarily in underground tanks pending vitrification. Most of the high-level waste created by the Manhattan project and the weapons programs of the cold war exists in this form because funding for further processing was typically not part of the original weapons programs. Both spent nuclear fuel and vitrified waste are considered as suitable forms for long term disposal after a period of temporary storage in the case of spent nuclear fuel. HLW contains many of the fission products and transuranic elements generated in the reactor core and is the type of nuclear waste with the highest activity. HLW accounts for over 95% of the total radioactivity produced in the nuclear power process. In other words while most nuclear waste is low-level and intermediate-level waste such as protective clothing and equipment that have been contaminated with radiation the majority of the radioactivity produced from the nuclear power generation process comes from high-level waste. In the US HLW from reprocessing of spent fuel from electrical power stations amounts to less than 1% of the total volume of US HLW; the rest is defense related. Some other countries particularly France reprocess commercial spent fuel. High-level waste is very radioactive and therefore requires special shielding during handling and transport. Initially it also needs cooling because it generates a great deal of heat. Most of the heat at least after short-lived nuclides have decayed is from the medium-lived fission products cesium-137 and strontium-90 which have half-lives on the order of 30 years. A typical large 1000 MWe nuclear reactor produces 25-30 tons of spent fuel per year. If the fuel were reprocessed and vitrified the waste volume would be only about three cubic meters per year but the decay heat would be almost the same. It is generally accepted that the final waste will be disposed of in a deep geological repository and many countries have developed plans for such a site including France Japan and the United States.

Washington DC: National Research Council of the National Academies 2013. Presumed First Edition First printing thus. Trade paperback. Very good. xiii 1 95 1 pages. Illustrations some with color. Footnotes. Acronyms. Glossary. References. Cover has slight wear and soiling. Thomas Schelling and Roger Hagengruber were members of the Committee. The Global Nuclear Detection Architecture GNDA is described as a worldwide network of sensors telecommunications and personnel with the supporting information exchanges programs and protocols that serve to detect analyze and report on nuclear and radiological materials that are out of regulatory control. The Domestic Nuclear Detection Office DNDO an office within the Department of Homeland Security DHS coordinates the development of the GNDA with its federal partners. Performance Metrics for the Global Nuclear Detection Architecture considers how to develop performance measures and quantitative metrics that can be used to evaluate the overall effectiveness and report on progress toward meeting the goals of the GNDA. According to this report two critical components are needed to evaluate the effectiveness of the GNDA: a new strategic plan with outcome-based metrics and an analysis framework to enable assessment of outcome-based metrics. The GNDA is a complex system of systems meant to deter and detect attempts to unlawfully transport radiological or nuclear material. The recommendations of Performance Metrics for the Performance Metrics for the Global Nuclear Detection Architecture may be used to improve the GNDA strategic plan and the reporting of progress toward meeting its goals during subsequent review cycles. Derived from an institutional website: Society is facing an array of complex policy questions. The National Academies of Sciences Engineering and Medicine are distinctively qualified to provide nonpartisan objective guidance for decision makers on pressing issues. As we have done since our founding in 1863 we marshal the energy and intellect of the nation's critical thinkers to respond to policy challenges with science engineering and medicine at their core. Through a meticulous process of information collection evidence analysis and deliberation our studies provide blueprints for progress. By shining a spotlight on subjects and facilitating dialogue across disciplines our work advances understanding of critical issues. The needs of the nation-and therefore the topics we study- change over time but our commitment to putting sound advice to work for the public good does not. The work of the National Academies spurs progress by connecting understandings of science engineering and medicine to advising national policies and practice. Our studies have lasting impacts from guiding NASA's agenda for space exploration to charting the course for improving the quality of health care to proposing effective strategies to guard against cyberattacks. When faced with a complex question we bring together experts from across disciplines to look at the evidence with fresh eyes and openness to insights from other fields. These study committees survey the landscape of relevant research hold public meetings to gather information and deliberate to reach consensus which results in a shared understanding of what the evidence reveals and the best path forward. We shield committee deliberations and conclusions from influence by sponsors and special interests and make certain each report undergoes rigorous peer review to ensure that our advice is grounded in the best available evidence. This provides policy makers assurance that the results reflect the facts and the combined expertise of the science engineering and medical communities. The National Academies also convene workshops symposia and other events that bring together experts and practitioners to consider issues related to science engineering and medicine and their implications for policy and practice. In a space free from partisan pressures and preset agendas participants share their own research and perspectives and also look beyond them-making connections within and across disciplines sharpening questions sparking new ideas and exploring possible solutions. Some workshops focus on specialized areas while others tackle big questions. When necessary we can swiftly gather the nation's top minds to address matters of urgent importance such as how to combat an emerging virus or respond to a natural disaster. When there is a need for ongoing dialogue our roundtables and forums-which are organized around a topic-offer stakeholders an opportunity to build relationships and unravel complicated issues over time. Regardless of the format these gatherings go beyond bringing people together. They advance conversation catalyze movement around an issue and generate bold ideas.
