Support to LLW Repository Ltd Environmental Safety Case

The disposal of radioactive waste at or from the Low Level Waste Repository (LLWR) is regulated by the Environment Agency. The LLWR currently holds a Permit under the Environmental Permitting Regulations, allowing it to dispose of and transfer radioactive wastes. Eden NE has assisted the Low Level Waste Repository Ltd to prepare documents in support of an application to vary its existing Permit. The application concerns the disposal of solid Low-Level radioactive Waste (LLW) to the LLWR. The application is based on the revised Environmental Safety Case (ESC) of the Repository. The ESC documentation can be found on the LLW Repository Ltd website.
