Description

The historic nuclear reactors on the Hanford site are being decommissioned and for this purpose an interim storage strategy, involving the cocooning of the reactors, has been adopted. The paper describes the work done over the past ten years in relation to the reactor decommissioning and the site cleanup from the perspective of a local community representative and indicates the ways in which the community has been informed and involved in the projects.
