High Level Waste definition

High Level Waste means (a) Spent Nuclear Fuel, (b) the highly radioactive material resulting from the reprocessing of Spent Nuclear Fuel, including liquid wastes produced directly in reprocessing and any solid material derived from such liquid waste that contains fission products in sufficient concentrations or quantities that exceed NRC requirements for classifications as Low Level Waste, and (c) other highly radioactive material that the NRC, consistent with existing law, determines by rule requires permanent isolation.

High Level Waste means (a) irradiated nuclear reactor fuel, (b) liquid wastes resulting from the operation of the first cycle solvent extraction system, or its equivalent, and the concentrated wastes from subsequent extraction cycles, or their equivalent, in a facility for reprocessing irradiated reactor fuel, (c) solids into which such liquid wastes have been converted or (d) any other material containing radioactive nuclides in concentrations or quantities that exceed NRC requirements for classification as Low Level Waste.

High Level Waste means either irradiated nuclear reactor fuel or the portion of the material generated in the reprocessing of such irradiated fuel that contains virtually all of the fission products and most of the actinides not separated out during reprocessing.

More Definitions of High Level Waste

High Level Waste means radioactive waste in which the temperature may rise significantly as a result of its radioactivity, so that this factor has to be taken into account in designing storage or disposal facilities.

High Level Waste means (a) irradiated nuclear reactor fuel, (b) liquid wastes resulting from the operation of the first cycle solvent extraction system, or its equivalent, and the concentrated wastes from subsequent extraction cycles, or their equivalent, in a facility for reprocessing irradiated reactor fuel and (c) solids into which such liquid wastes have been converted.

High Level Waste means 1) the highly radioactive material resulting from the reprocessing of spent nuclear fuel, including liquid waste produced directly in reprocessing and any solid material derived from such liquid waste that contains fission products in sufficient concentration; and 2) any other highly radioactive material determined by the federal government as requiring permanent isolation;

High Level Waste means (i) irradiated nuclear reactor fuel, (ii) liquid wastes resulting from the operation of the first cycle solvent extraction system, or its equivalent, and the concentrated wastes from subsequent extraction cycles, or their equivalent, in a facility for reprocessing irradiated reactor fuel and (iii) solids into which such liquid wastes have been converted.

High Level Waste means that waste resulting from the reprocessing of spent fuel rods or unreprocessed spent fuel rods.

High Level Waste means irradiated reactor fuel, liquid wastes from repro- cessing irradiated reactor fuel, and solids into which such liquid wastes have been converted.

High Level Waste means irradiated reactor fuel, liquid wastes from reprocessing irradiated reactor fuel and solids into which such liquid wastes have been converted, and other high- level radioactive waste as defined by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
