Sellafield's most established storerooms as a feature of a continuous

Work has begun for this present week to eliminate notable waste from one of Sellafield’s most established storerooms as a feature of a continuous procedure to decrease the drawn out danger and hazard at the Cumbrian site, as indicated by the Workplace for Atomic Guideline (ONR).

England’s controller for the atomic business conceded consent for Sellafield Ltd to start recoveries at the Heap Fuel Cladding Storehouse (PFCS) after it embraced a ‘thorough and point by point evaluation’ of Sellafield Ltd’s wellbeing case.

As per the ONR, the PFCS contains around 3,200m3 of middle level waste, which was regularly tipped into the storeroom until 1964, with additional infrequent tipping going on until 1972. How much waste put away in the PFCS is what could be compared to around 30 multi level buses.
