Book Description

This project plan for the Nevada Nuclear Waste Storage Investigations (NNWSI) Project has been developed in order to define the scope, the objectives, and the management requirements of the project. The plan lists the technical, management, cost, schedule, and institutional objectives of the NNWSI project; presents a technical plan that reflects the newly defined uniform work breakdown structure for the Office of Geologic Repositories; summarizes the management approach and acquisition strategy; and briefly discusses the principal risks associated with the projected costs through the completion of the development and evaluation phase; discusses the schedule for the NNWSI Project and the factors that may affect it directly or indirectly; and briefly reviews the controlled items for the project. The NNWSI Project Plan is a supporting document to the Geologic Repository Project Plan.
