High-Level Radioactive Waste Disposal [PDF]
PHYSICS AND THE ENERGY PROBLEM — 1974: The Proceedings of the American Physical Society Topical Conference on Energy, 1974 The U.S. Atomic Energy Commission (AEC) is developing additional plans and new methods for managing radioactive wastes generated by past, present and future operations. The objectives of these programs are to; (1) ensure the health and safety of the public, (2) protect our environment and ecology, and (3) use methods acceptable to the public.
