Description
At a recent conference (April 1991) on spent fuel management, three options were discussed; to reprocess, to store or to dispose. This discussion is summarized. Contributions were made by speakers from Canada, USA, France, Germany, Sweden and the United Kingdom, who outlined the policy and current practice in their country. For instance, Canada's policy is to store spent fuel, whereas in the UK the policy is to reprocess. (UK)
