Technical Meeting of the International Low Level Waste Disposal Network (DISPONET) on Lessons Learned from the Disposal of Low Level Waste

The purpose of the event is to facilitate the exchange of information and foster discussions among members of DISPONET with respect to recent experiences, good practices and lessons learned in the disposal of low level waste. This 2024 meeting will have a technical focus on site characterization, and experiences gained in working with Indigenous Nations and local communities in siting waste disposal facilities when preparing for and conducting site characterization. The Canadian facilities at Chalk River and Port Hope provide excellent examples from which participants can learn by experiencing firsthand via site visits.
