The News That Matters about the Nuclear Industry Fukushima Chernobyl Mayak Three Mile Island Atomic Testing Radiation Isotope

Allerdale GDF Working Group’s map of area considered for UK’s nuclear waste dump includes areas already declared unsuitable.

Allerdale GDF Working Group have finally released a map of their search
area today, illustrating where they would like to consider burying the
UK’s vast nuclear waste inventory. However, what they haven’t mentioned
is that a significant proportion of the chosen area has previously been
declared as unsuitable by the British Geological Survey (BGS). Here [on original] is a
map produced by the BGS in 2010 which identifies areas unsuitable for
geological disposal, largely due to the presence of coal and coal-bed
methane.
