We need to find a way to:

1) Dramatically reduce the volume of waste coming to the Repository for disposal

2) Continue to support the NDA with its primary mission of decommissioning

3 Pronged Strategy

1) Develop a National Strategy for LLW management and get national buy-in to both the strategy and its implementation.

2) Begin to work with the supply chain to develop the necessary services to implement the national strategy

3) Establish robust contracts with all our consignors which will provide access to all the services.
