Abstract
Removal of Spent Nuclear Fuel (SNF) of retired Nuclear Submarines (NSs) from the Russian Northwest and Pacific Regions to “Mayak” Production Association (PA “Mayak”) began in the 1970s after commissioning of a buffer storage facility at PA “Mayak”. Over more than 30-year period about 200 runs of special SNF-shipping train were performed, the length of route from the Northwest region’s naval bases equaling 3000 km, from the Pacific’s naval bases 7500 km.
