Welcome

 

Welcome to the CoRWM website. We provide independent scrutiny and advice on the UK's management of its solid radioactive waste, including plans for interim storage and geological disposal of higher activity waste. The aim of this site is to provide information about our work and about radioactive waste and its management, and to seek your views.
