Series: Proceedings series (International Atomic Energy Agency). IAEAL 05–00403 FOREWORD The largest part, by mass and volume, of the radioactive waste created in the operation and decommissioning of nuclear power plants, in the production of nuclear fuel, in the use of radionuclides in medicine, industry and research and as a by-product of various industrial processes, is of low activity. Management solutions exist for some, but not all, of the waste types that can be described as low activity. A new urgency exists in many countries to develop or extend existing arrangements for low activity waste management and disposal because of the ongoing or imminent decommissioning phase of their commercial nuclear power plants. In other countries, the problems associated with the management of the low activity radioactive waste from non-nuclear industries, for example, waste including naturally occurring radioactive material (NORM), is becoming more recognized. The subject of low activity radioactive waste management raises several issues of both a philosophical and a technical nature, such as the question of when a waste is to be considered radioactive from a regulatory perspective, the issue of guiding suitable management strategies for waste that is both long lived and present in large volumes and of finding suitable disposal routes for new types of low activity waste. The IAEA organized this international symposium to provide an opportunity for the exchange of information on the subject among its Member States and to look for common approaches to the problems so identified. The symposium explored the subject through five topical sessions: policies and strategies for low activity radioactive waste management and disposal; very low activity waste; low activity radioactive waste from decommissioning; long lived low activity radioactive waste and unique low activity waste. This publication, which constitutes the record of the symposium, includes the opening and closing speeches, the invited papers, the summaries of the discussions during the sessions and during the panel sessions and an executive summary of the symposium. A CD-ROM containing the unedited contributed papers to the symposium can be found at the back of this book. The IAEA gratefully acknowledges the support and generous hospitality of the Government of Spain through its Empresa Nacional de Residuos Radiactivos, S.A. (ENRESA) and its Consejo de Seguridad Nuclear (CSN). It also acknowledges the support of the French Agence nationale pour la gestion des déchets radioactifs (ANDRA) and of the OECD Nuclear Energy Agency.

    1 2 3 The key policy framework instruments are: Thematic strategy on the prevention and recycling of waste, COM(2005) 666 final -sets as long-term goal for the EU to become a recycling society that seeks to avoid waste and uses waste as a resource: -It set 7 actions how to reach these objectives, for example, step up enforcement, modernise waste legislation, develop recycling standards and improve prevention. -The Strategy played an important role in guiding policy development and has contributed to significant improvement in waste management. The Roadmap to a Resource Efficient Europe (COM(2011) 571) •outlines how to transform Europe's economy into a sustainable one by 2050, how to increase resource productivity and decouple economic growth from resource use and its environmental impact. It illustrates how policies interrelate and build on each other. •It sets various actions (2012-2014) to be taken by the Commission to treat waste as a resource, including the review of the waste targets 7th Environmental Action Programme, 2013 – 2020 - Puts focus to turning waste into a resource including by phasing out landfilling. Action Plan towards Circular economy •Waste management plays a central role in the transition to a circular economy. The plan requires the Commission to take measures: •Revise waste targets (proposal adopted in December 2015); step up enforcement; communication on waste to energy (adopted in January 2017); disseminate good practices on 4 separate collection (specific study available on DG Environment website). 4 5 EU waste legislation objectives are defined in Article of the Waste Framework Directive 2008/98/EC: • Waste prevention – has been and continues to be the first and most important objective of the EU waste management policy.

Arguments such as 4 health, depletion of resources, cost, noise, odours, traffic movement and house prices 5 are often cited as reasons against the development of such facilities. This study aims 6 to review the arguments and identify any effect on property prices due to the public 7 perception of the plant. A selection of existing energy from waste (EfW) facilities in 8 the UK, operational for at least 7 years, was selected and property sales data, within 5 9 km of the sites, was acquired and analysed in detail. The locations of the properties 10 were calculated in relation to the plant using GIS software (ArcGIS) and the distances 11 split into 5 zones ranging from 0-5 km from the site. The local property sale prices, 12 normalised against the local house price index, were compared in two time periods, 13 before and after the facility became operational, across each of the 5 zones.

At first sight, the red thread running through the albums he released during the 1990s is a harsh attack on American ideologies. On his debut album Portrait of an American Family (1994), for example, Manson criticizes ideological constructs such as the nuclear family, arguing that the concept is often used to justify violent pro-life activism.ii Proclaiming that “I got my lunchbox and I’m armed real well” and that “next motherfucker’s gonna get my metal,” he presents himself as a personification of teenage angst determined to destroy his bullies, be they unfriendly classmates or the American government.
