Abstract
The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), in cooperation with the Russian Federation has developed an integrated management system for interim storage of spent nuclear fuel (SNF) in Northwest Russia. The system is being developed under the Arctic Military Environmental Cooperation (AMEC) program, with the support of the US DOD Office of Cooperative Threat Reduction (CTR). The AMEC 1.1 Project comprises development of a prototype dual-purpose, metal-concrete 40-tonne container for both tranport and long-term storage of Russian SNF-AMEC 1.1. The Transshipment/Interim Storage Facility design includes a reinforced concrete foundation for storing the 40-tonne tasks in a vertical position.
