Abstract

본 기술보고에서는 미국의 고준위 방사성폐기물 발생 현황 및 최근 에너지성 장관의 최종 추천을 받는 등 활발하게 진행되고 있는 미국 유카산 고준위 방사성폐기물 처분장 후보 부지 선정 과정 및 조사 연구 현황을 요약하였다. 본 기술보고에 요약한 바와 같이 유카산 프로젝트의 자연 환경은 우리 나라와는 매우 상이하다. 그러나 세계 원자력 계에서의 미국의 영향력을 고려할 때 유카산 프로젝트의 성공은 2001년 핀란드 올킬루오토(Olkiluoto) 처분 부지 확보와 함께 원자력 계의 오랜 숙원이었던 고준위 방사성폐기물 처분을 실현시킴으로서 향후 원자력 에너지 사용의 증대와 함께 심부 지질에 대한 이해를 증진시키는데 크게 기여할 것이다.
