Harwell Intermediate Level Waste Store
We are delighted that Magnox has awarded us a major contract for the detailed design, construction and inactive commissioning of a new waste store at Harwell. The store will accommodate the intermediate level waste (ILW) generated from decommissioning the remaining facilities at Harwell and Winfrith and the Joint European Torus fusion research facility at Culham. The waste will be encapsulated inside large reinforced concrete boxes, each weighing up to 50 tonnes, at the decommissioning sites before being transported to the store where they will stay until a Geological Disposal Facility becomes available. Design is currently underway, and will include:
Work on site is expected to start in May 2016 and the store will be available to receive the first boxes of ILW in mid-2020.
