SRS Defense Waste Process Facility exceeds canister targets
Dr. Charles L. Crawford argues letters that the SRS plant has surpassed goals for filling glass stabilized radioactive waste canisters. He contends reports implying immediate offsite shipment to a federal repository are misleading since all current and near term containers are stored on site in engineered glass waste storage buildings in South Carolina. He notes Yucca Mountain remains under study since 1987 with a multi‑year licensing and construction timeline before any federal repository could accept waste, likely delaying offsite shipment for many years.
