A decisionmaking process used by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) to assess the prospects for safe and secure permanent disposal of high-level radioactive waste in an excavated, underground facility, known as a geologic repository. This decisionmaking process is based on (...
A subset of radioactive waste that includes unusable byproducts produced during the various stages of the nuclear fuel cycle, including recovery (or extraction), conversion, and enrichment of uranium; fuel fabrication; and use of the fuel in nuclear reactors. Specifically, th...
In reactor physics, a substance (other than fissionable material) that has a large capacity for absorbing neutrons in the vicinity of the reactor core. This effect may be undesirable in some reactor applications because it may prevent or disrupt the fission chain reaction, th...

Absorption of ionizing radiation or the amount of a hazardous substance that has been ingested, inhaled, or in contact with the skin. Acute exposure occurs over a short period of time. Chronic exposure is exposure received over a long period of time, such as during a lifetime....
The system by which a utility finds and fixes problems at the nuclear plant. It includes a process for evaluating the safety significance of the problems, setting priorities in correcting the problems, and tracking them until they have been corrected.
Strategic Special nuclear material, in any combination, in a quantity of 5000 grams or more computed by the formula, grams = (grams contained U-235) + 2.5 (grams U-233 + grams plutonium). This class of material is sometimes referred to as a Category I quantity of material (se...
The 12-month period from October 1 through September 30 used by the Federal Government for budget formulation and execution. The fiscal year is designated by the calendar year in which it ends; for example, FY 2009 runs from October 1, 2008, through September 30, 2009.
A material, which is not itself fissile (fissionable by thermal neutrons), that can be converted into a fissile material by irradiation in a reactor. There are two basic fertile materials: uranium-238 and thorium-232. When these fertile materials capture neutrons, they are co...
An earthquake that could be expected to affect the site of a nuclear reactor, but for which the plant's power production equipment is designed to remain functional without undue risk to public health and safety.
Activities that address the short-term, direct effects of a natural or human-caused event and require an emergency response to protect life or property. For detail, see Emergency Preparedness and Response and the NRC Incident Response Plan (NUREG-0728).

An ATWS is one of the "worst case" accidents, consideration of which frequently motivates the NRC to take regulatory action. Such an accident could happen if the scram system (which provides a highly reliable means of shutting down the reactor) fails to work during a reactor ...
