“Nuclear waste could remain in Jülich for even longer”
“Der Atommüll könnte noch länger in Jülich bleiben”
WDR German radio, 17 April 2020: https://www1.wdr.de/nachrichten/rheinland/atommuell-juelich-108.html
“This new expertise is the basis for plans by the Jülich Nuclear Waste Management Company (JEN) to apply for an extension of nine years for the storage of nuclear waste – from the date of application approval. If, for example, the licence were granted in 2021, the old interim storage facility could be used until 2030. Until then, it is possible to construct a new interim storage facility on the site of Forschungszentrum Jülich.”
Just why is Germany continuing paying money to the Savannah River National Lab if nothing of substance will be delivered? This is more fuel for our arguments to terminate the “Work for Others Agreement” between SRS and the Jülicher Entsorgungsgesellschaft für Nuklearanlagen (JEN) in Germany. In our recent Freedom of Information Act request, we asked for reports delivered by SRNL to JEN and nothing was produced.
