Concern #556 - Waste, Spent Fuel, and End-of-Life Assumptions Not Anchored Early Enough

Project:
471 - Springfield Nuclear New-Build Initiative

Description:
Assumptions about waste handling, spent fuel strategy, interim storage, decommissioning interfaces, and lifetime obligations may remain too abstract during early project decisions.

Desired Outcome:
Lifecycle obligations are visible early enough to influence design, space allocation, logistics, commercial strategy, and long-term credibility.

What Could Go Wrong:
Short-term design or layout decisions create long-term operational, regulatory, or commercial constraints that are expensive to unwind.

Current Situation:
Projects can focus heavily on build and startup while treating end-of-life and waste pathways as distant matters.

Action Strategy:
Maintain explicit lifecycle assumptions and interfaces in the project baseline, test them during design reviews, and assign ownership for the evidence behind them.
