A shipping cask uniquely designed to transport solidified high level waste (SHLW) from reprocessing spent LWR fuel has not yet been developed. Battelle, Pacific Northwest Laboratory (PNL) has conducted a program for the Department of Energy to develop a conceptual design for a rail cask for transporting SHLW, and to produce models and graphical displays based on the conceptual design for use at technical meetings and in public information displays. The results of this work are summarized in this paper. (ERA citation 05:016301)
