摘要

The paper describes the development of near surface disposal facilities, including facilities intended for different categories of low activity waste (short lived, long lived, very low activity). Emphasis is given to the design aspects, especially the first steps of the design process, where choices have to be made between a number of options and criteria. It contains examples of technical options and design criteria for different solutions.
