AbstractAbstract
[en] The US Department of Energy is exploring various options to determine how to best handle research and defense reactor spent fuel if it is not reprocessed. One option being considered is direct disposal. A number of regulations governing direct disposal have been issued. The technology to construct a repository to these regulations is being developed in parallel with the design. Issues identified in preliminary studies have given rise to four challenging questions relative to criticality safety in a mined geologic repository. A path for resolving these questions is presented
