1Opinion of the Court

RADER, Chief Judge.

This consolidated appeal is the latest manifestation of the numerous contract disputes arising from the Government’s failure to accept and dispose of radioactive waste from the nation’s nuclear utilities. Specifically, the appeal flows from this court’s decision in Yankee Atomic Electric Co. v. United States, 536 F.3d 1268 (Fed.Cir.2008), which reversed the United States Court of Federal Claims’ initial damages determination, and remanded for a calculation of damages according to the rate at which the Government was contractually obligated to accept the utilities’ waste.
