摘要

This paper discusses HM Nuclear Installations Inspectorate's (Nil) regulation of radioactive waste management, and in particular the arrangements for long term safe storage, on nuclear licensed sites in the United Kingdom (UK). The refusal of planning permission for an underground rock characterisation facility near Sellafield has effectively delayed the availability of a future disposal facility for intermediate level waste (ILW) in the UK. At the same time it has become increasingly clear that the public favours the alternative concept of long term storage of radioactive waste rather than underground disposal. While these circumstances do not cause any immediate safety problems, nuclear operators in the UK must now plan to store radioactive waste for many decades in the future pending the development of a long term solution. In response to this developing situation, Nil has been considering the factors it will take into account in examining the adequacy of nuclear operators' arrangements for the future long term storage of radioactive waste, and reference is made to guidance in the field of radioactive waste management which Nil is currently developing for use by it's inspectors and assessors and for the information of other interested organisations or individuals. Nil's fundamental requirements are for the production of radioactive wastes to be minimised and either disposed of or, if this is not practicable, stored in conditions of passive safety. A set of engineering principles that describe how passive safety may be achieved in practice is presented.
