- Authors
Ikonen, Ari T. K.
- Abstract
The article focuses on the fuel repository management programmes in Finland. It states that Finland is one of the few countries that is proceeding with its waste management plans which started in the 1970s. It discusses the history of the country's spent fuel repository programme which include the feasibility studies on geological disposal in 1982 and the decision for a site selection in 2000. It adds that long-term safety is achieved by isolating the spent fuel from the living nature.
