Geological Challenges in Radioactive Waste Isolation Third Worldwide Review
Geological Challenges in Radioactive Waste Isolation Third Worldwide Review
The first worldwide review of geological problems in radioactive waste isolation was published by the Ernest Orlando Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) in 1991 (Witherspoon, 1991). This review was a compilation of reports that had been submitted to a workshop held in conjunction with the 28th International Geological Congress that took place July 9Ð19, 1989, in Washington, D.C.

Socio-Technical Challenges to Implementing Geological Disposal: a Synthesis of Findings from 14 Countries
Socio-Technical Challenges to Implementing Geological Disposal: a Synthesis of Findings from 14 Countries
This report aims to clarify the dynamics of socio-technical challenges in the implementation of geological disposal (GD) for High Level Waste (HLW) and Spent Nuclear Fuel (SNF). Drawing on the 14 country reports produced within InSOTEC’s WP1 the synthesis focuses on socio-technical challenges that appear across national contexts. The synthesis report elucidates issues made visible through bringing together the analyses of different national contexts.
RD&D Programme 2007: Programme for research, development, and demonstration of methods for the management and disposal of nuclear waste
RD&D Programme 2007: Programme for research, development, and demonstration of methods for the management and disposal of nuclear waste
RD&D Programme 2007 presents SKB’s plans for research, development and demonstration during<br/>the period 2008–2013. The plans for the first three-year period are for natural reasons more detailed<br/>than those for the next one.
Site selection - Siting of the Final Repository for Spent Nuclear Fuel
Site selection - Siting of the Final Repository for Spent Nuclear Fuel
SKB has selected Forsmark as the site for the final repository for spent nuclear fuel. The site selection<br/>is the end result of an extensive siting process that began in the early 1990s. The strategy and<br/>plan for the work was based on experience from investigations and development work over a period<br/>of more than ten years prior to then.<br/>This document describes the siting work and SKB’s choice of site for the final repository.
Response of the UK Government and the Department of the Environment, Northern Ireland to the Committee on Radioactive Waste management (CoRWM) Report on 'Geological Disposal of Higher Activity Radioactive Wastes'
Response of the UK Government and the Department of the Environment, Northern Ireland to the Committee on Radioactive Waste management (CoRWM) Report on 'Geological Disposal of Higher Activity Radioactive Wastes'
The primary task of the Committee on Radioactive Waste Management (CoRWM) is to provide independent scrutiny of the Government’s and Nuclear Decommissioning Authority’s proposal, plans and programmes to deliver geological disposal, together with robust interim storage, as the long-term<br/>management option for the UK’s higher activity wastes. In June 2007 the Scottish Executive announced a policy of near-surface, near-site long-term storage rather than geological disposal.
UK Government and Devolved Administration Response to the Committee on Radioactive Waste Management (CoRWM) Report on 'Interim Storage of Higher Activity Wastes and the Management of Spent Fuels, Plutonium and Uranium'
UK Government and Devolved Administration Response to the Committee on Radioactive Waste Management (CoRWM) Report on 'Interim Storage of Higher Activity Wastes and the Management of Spent Fuels, Plutonium and Uranium'
The UK Government and the devolved administrations_ (for Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, from here on referred to as "The Government") statement of October 2006 made clear there will be strong independent scrutiny of the proposals, plans and programmes to deliver geological disposal of higher activity radioactive waste.
