ATTACHMENT G
STATEMENT OF TASK

The committee will review the Department of Energy’s work to identify alternatives for separating cesium from high-level waste at the Savannah River site. This review will address the following points:

  • Was an appropriately comprehensive set of cesium partitioning alternatives identified and are there other alternatives that should be explored?

  • Was the process used to screen the alternatives technically sound and did its application result in the selection of appropriate preferred alternatives?

  • Are there significant barriers to the implementation of any of the preferred alternatives, taking into account their state of development and their ability to be integrated into the existing SRS HLW system?

  • Are the planned R&D activities, including pilot-scale testing, adequate to support implementation of a single preferred alternative?
