... We all know that radioactive materials are not the only toxic materials; they are not even the most toxic materials, but our workshop will limit its scope to radioactive materials. Whether long-term storage becomes the method of disposal in the future, whether fissionable material is utilized or destroyed in the future, whether fission products and other radioactive materials are disposed of in geological repositories or transmuted into less dangerous materials in the future, these are all topics for future decisions.

... This is especially important for the smaller temporary sites where the cost per fuel unit of waste to ensure safety is very high because of the relatively small amounts of material involved. A centralized storage facility is certainly an attractive option for such material and that really is the focus of our workshop.
