New storage facility at Sellafield

摘要

Sellafield Ltd has marked the completion of a new state-of-the-art storage facility that will keep nuclear waste safe and secure for many years to come. The Encapsulated Product Store 3 (EPS3) is the latest addition to the suite of facilities designed to store intermediate-level waste (ILW) in purpose-built, above-ground storage buildings on the Sellafield site. Speaking at a ceremony to mark the completion of the facility, Sellafield's Ewan Smith said: "Over the course of this project the efforts of many people, from many different disciplines and companies have been required."
