Acronyms Used in this Report. There has been for decades a worldwide consensus in the nuclear technical community for disposal through geological isolation of high-level waste HLW including spent nuclear fuel SNF.1 However none of the national programs established to implement geological disposal has yet succeeded in establishing a geological repository and emplacing HLW in it. The large and growing HLW inventory from civilian and military reactor use over nearly 60 years remains in surface facilities intended only for interim storage. The societal and technical challenges of geological disposal and more broadly of ongoing management of HLW have turned out to be substantially greater than anticipated when the United States and other nations established programs for HLW disposal starting some decades ago. The project that produced this report was initiated by the Board on Radioactive Waste Management the part of the National Research Council responsible for studies on nuclear waste in response to its observation that many nations including the United States were encountering significant difficulties and delays in their plans for geological disposal of HLW. The study committee includes scientists from several nations as well as a variety of disciplinary backgrounds and the study has addressed both the societal and the technical aspects of HLW management. In particular the study addresses the questions of whether and when to implement disposal of HLW through geological isolation rather than focusing exclusively on how to implement geological disposal. This report is intended to provide elected officials and policymakers interested parties among the public and those professionally involved with HLW with an informative overview and with specific insights to aid planning and decision making.

The Global Nuclear Detection Architecture GNDA is described as a worldwide network of sensors telecommunications and personnel with the supporting information exchanges programs and protocols that serve to detect analyze and report on nuclear and radiological materials that are out of regulatory control. The Domestic Nuclear Detection Office DNDO an office within the Department of Homeland Security DHS coordinates the development of the GNDA with its federal partners. Performance Metrics for the Global Nuclear Detection Architecture considers how to develop performance measures and quantitative metrics that can be used to evaluate the overall effectiveness and report on progress toward meeting the goals of the GNDA. According to this report two critical components are needed to evaluate the effectiveness of the GNDA: a new strategic plan with outcome-based metrics and an analysis framework to enable assessment of outcome-based metrics. The GNDA is a complex system of systems meant to deter and detect attempts to unlawfully transport radiological or nuclear material. The recommendations of Performance Metrics for the Performance Metrics for the Global Nuclear Detection Architecture may be used to improve the GNDA strategic plan and the reporting of progress toward meeting its goals during subsequent review cycles. Derived from an institutional website: Society is facing an array of complex policy questions. The National Academies of Sciences Engineering and Medicine are distinctively qualified to provide nonpartisan objective guidance for decision makers on pressing issues. As we have done since our founding in 1863 we marshal the energy and intellect of the nation's critical thinkers to respond to policy challenges with science engineering and medicine at their core. Through a meticulous process of information collection evidence analysis and deliberation our studies provide blueprints for progress. By shining a spotlight on subjects and facilitating dialogue across disciplines our work advances understanding of critical issues. The needs of the nation-and therefore the topics we study- change over time but our commitment to putting sound advice to work for the public good does not. The work of the National Academies spurs progress by connecting understandings of science engineering and medicine to advising national policies and practice. Our studies have lasting impacts from guiding NASA's agenda for space exploration to charting the course for improving the quality of health care to proposing effective strategies to guard against cyberattacks. When faced with a complex question we bring together experts from across disciplines to look at the evidence with fresh eyes and openness to insights from other fields. These study committees survey the landscape of relevant research hold public meetings to gather information and deliberate to reach consensus which results in a shared understanding of what the evidence reveals and the best path forward. We shield committee deliberations and conclusions from influence by sponsors and special interests and make certain each report undergoes rigorous peer review to ensure that our advice is grounded in the best available evidence. This provides policy makers assurance that the results reflect the facts and the combined expertise of the science engineering and medical communities. The National Academies also convene workshops symposia and other events that bring together experts and practitioners to consider issues related to science engineering and medicine and their implications for policy and practice. In a space free from partisan pressures and preset agendas participants share their own research and perspectives and also look beyond them-making connections within and across disciplines sharpening questions sparking new ideas and exploring possible solutions. Some workshops focus on specialized areas while others tackle big questions. When necessary we can swiftly gather the nation's top minds to address matters of urgent importance such as how to combat an emerging virus or respond to a natural disaster. When there is a need for ongoing dialogue our roundtables and forums-which are organized around a topic-offer stakeholders an opportunity to build relationships and unravel complicated issues over time. Regardless of the format these gatherings go beyond bringing people together. They advance conversation catalyze movement around an issue and generate bold ideas.

Professor Martin Greenwald was the Chair of the Fusion Energy Science Advisory Committee. This is the panel report of High Energy Density Laboratory Plasmas HEDLP prepared in response to a request from the Department of Energy of March 6 2008. THe panel identified compelling research opportunities in fundamental HEDLP science and identified the scientific issues of implosion physics and target design that need to be addressed to make the case for inertial fusion energy. The panel also provided essential information for an effective stewardship of the Joint HEDLP Program and background for a scientific plan for energy-related HEDLP studies. The Fusion Energy Science Advistory Committee voted unaminously to endorse this comprehensive report. U, S. Department of Energy paperback

COver has some wear and soiling. Includes: illustrations diagrams. Various paginations. This report responded to a letter from the Director Office of Science requesting a review of DOE's Inertial Fusion Energy IFE program to provide an assessment of the present status of the program. A principal conclusion of the report was that 'the quality of IFE science and engineering research is excellent." The panel identified specific contributions that appears especially accessib. e and pointed out the IFE seemed posied to make important contributions to astrophysics.
