DOE Request for Information on Private Initiatives to Develop Consolidated Interim Storage Facilities
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) requests information regarding private initiatives (PI) for making consolidated interim storage facility (ISF) services available to DOE for spent nuclear fuel (SNF) storage, whether a pilot-scale or larger-scale facility. DOE believes that potential host/neighboring communities, potential ISF operators and existing nuclear waste facility operators, among others, may be interested in responding to this RFI.
To provide your comments on the Request for Information on Private Inititives, please email privateISF@hq.doe.gov. The comment period ends on January 27, 2017.
