The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) established the National Spent Nuclear Fuel Program to provide technology solutions and guidance to ensure safe, efficient handling, characterization, and disposition of DOE-owned or managed spent nuclear fuel. This web site provides access to Program documents, fact sheets and "Lessons Learned" related to the Program's four focus areas: safe, efficient packaging and transportation; safe, interim and long-term storage; accurate characterization; and compliance with safety and regulatory requirements.
