With the current lack of progress towards disposal of spent nuclear fuel (SNF) in the U.S., AREVA continues to provide support on activities intended to ensure the continued and extended safe storage of used nuclear fuel (UNF)/SNF, while also preparing for future activities necessary to support an integrated and flexible UNF management program. This paper provides an overview and update of these activities, which range from supporting the licensing basis of existing dry storage systems through a demonstration project to developing elements of a transportation system for UNF/SNF to developing a future recycling facility, and how they support the safe and flexible management of UNF/SNF in the U.S.
