Nuclear Waste Facility Siting and Local Opposition
On the historic evidence, but also for the distinctive qualities of the challenge, nuclear waste siting conflicts are assuredly among the most refractory in the large variety of NIMBY (Not In My Back Yard) facility siting disputes.

Report on Hungarian Atomic Energy Authority's Activities in 2010
In Hungary the use of atomic energy is governed by law (Act CXVI of 1996 on atomic energy, hereafter Atomic Act). In accordance with this Act, the control and supervision of the safety of applications is in the hand of the Government. The legal frame divides the basic regulatory tasks between the director-general of the Hungarian Atomic Energy Authority (HAEA) and the minister in charge of health.
