In SAFSTOR (Safe Storage), a nuclear plant is kept intact and placed in protective storage for an extended period of time. This allows the radioactive elements in components to decay to stable elements while the trust fund accrues interest. During this time, the main components of the plant remain in place, including the reactor vessel, fuel pools, turbine and other elements. All fuel is removed from the reactor vessel and placed in fuel pools or dry storage on-site. The NRC continues to inspect the site and provides regulatory oversight of maintenance and security appropriate to the low risk profile of the site. (Source: www.nei.org/)
