The development of radiation protection and of nuclear safety concepts have been somewhat separate. Traditionally, radiation protection has mainly focused on the protection of workers and members of ...

Low-level radioactive waste (LLW) arises in the normal operation of nuclear power plants and fuel cycle facilities, as well as from the use of radioactive isotopes in medicine, industry and agricultu...

The NEA Radioactive Waste Management Committee (RWMC) has underscored the environmental and ethical basis for geological disposal as well as its technical feasibility in a number of previous collecti...

La réglementation de la sûreté à long terme du stockage géologique des déchets radioactifs pose des défis particuliers en raison des vastes échelles de temps concernées. Ce rapport a été préparé afin...

As national geological disposal programmes progress towards implementation, the concept of “optimisation” and related requirements are receiving increased attention. Exchanges within NEA expert group...
