Descripción
Sumario:Confidence among both technical experts and the public in the safety of deep geologic repositories for radioactive waste is a key element in the successful development of the repositories. This report presents the approaches and arguments that are currently used in OECD countries to establish and communicate confidence in their safety. It evaluates the state of the art for obtaining, presenting and demonstrating confidence in long-term safety, and makes recommendations on future directions and initiatives to be taken for improving confidence.
Notas:"The NEA Performance Assessment Advisory Group (PAAG) set up the Working Group on Integrated Performance Assessments of Deep Repositories (IPAG) in 1994 ... IPAG-3 was carried out mainly between June 1999 and November 2000, and is documented in this report"--Page 5.
