Analysis Of Alternative Approaches

To Completing The Department Of

Energy's Water-Cooled Breeder Program

GAO evaluated alternative approaches to com-
pleting the Department of Energy's water-cooled
breeder reactor program, examined the reason-
ableness of staffing levels involved in defueling
the water-cooled breeder facility, and obtained
information on the extent of industry interest in
the program's results.

GAO's evaluation disclosed that
--the Department's planned approach is a
cost-effective way of completing the pro-
gram when compared to other alternatives,

--personnel levels for defueling the Ship-
pingport Atomic Power Station appear rea-
soniable, and

--l :of 14 nuclear industry groups and utili-
ties contacted by GAO expressed interest in
obtaining the results of the fuel evaluation
phase of the program.

The Department of Energy concurred with the
findings of GAO's evaluation.
