Commercial energy generation produces the majority of nuclear waste in the U.S., which remains stored above ground near each of the 99 commercial nuclear reactors scattered around the country. Nuclear waste is stored in pools to cool for many years, and some is moved to above-ground concrete casks.

The most currently-used method for nuclear waste disposal is storage, either using steel cylinders as radioactive shield or using deep and stable geologic formations. However, the disposal of nuclear waste by storage still has many concern, since the leakage of the nuclear waste may cause huge environmental disaster.

A permanent disposal site for high-level waste has been planned for Yucca Mountain, Nevada, since 1987. Whether it is at Yucca Mountain or some other location, DOE will transport and dispose of all U.S. commercial used fuel. All major nuclear countries in the world are pursuing similar disposal sites.
