We are responsible for the safe and secure clean-up of 12 nuclear sites and operation of one hydro-electric plant.
Licensed under the Nuclear Installations Act 1965 and holder of the licence for 12 nuclear sites and one hydro-electric plant, we are the legal entity responsible for the following sites, which are owned by the Nuclear Decommissioning Authority:
•Berkeley
•Bradwell
•Chapelcross
•Dungeness A
•Harwell
We are responsible for ensuring that our activities are carried out:
•safely, securely and predictably, with due regard for the environment
•to the satisfaction of the Nuclear Decommissioning Authority
•in the long-term interests of our organisation, our employees, the local communities and our supply chain partners.
We manage our sites through their lifecycles, overseeing all aspects of operation, defuelling and decommissioning.
This includes sending all used Magnox fuel safely to Sellafield for reprocessing.
Once defuelling is complete, preparations begin to place sites in a passive state through decommissioning and deplanting buildings and retrieving, treating and processing waste.
Care and maintenance (C&M) is the name for this passive state. C&M enables radiation levels to decay naturally over time. The sites are monitored during C&M and planned maintenance and inspections take place.
Final site clearance is the last lifecycle stage. The reactor vessels are dismantled and remaining waste is sent for disposal.
Our mission is to safely and securely deliver our 12 sites to closure with a workforce:
Our primary goal is to protect people and the environment, and we work hard to minimise the environmental impact of our operations.
We engage with our stakeholders to seek the widest possible approval of how we manage our environmental responsibilities.
Asset management programme
This covers asset management, care and maintenance and business improvement. Asset management is about getting the best value from the assets we manage. Care and maintenance looks at how sites will be managed once they have entered this passive phase. Business improvement works to make our processes as efficient as possible.
Waste management programme
Responsible for delivering our waste strategy and is split into projects and operations. Waste projects provides the infrastructure, plant and equipment to retrieve, condition and store intermediate level waste and fuel element debris. Waste operations supports active commissioning including retrieving, packaging, conditioning and placing waste into stores. It also manages and disposes of low level waste and non-radiological hazardous wastes.
Decommissioning programme
Responsible for making sites safe and minimising the amount of upkeep required during care and maintenance, and split into several workstreams. The Site restoration project manages land quality issues across sites. It also looks at what the end-state for each site will be. The plant and structures project covers bulk asbestos removal, deplant and demolition, safestore preparations and site closure work. The ponds project aims to safely, economically and compliantly reduce the hazard of fuel storage ponds. And the reactors project carries out safe and effective decommissioning of our reactors.
