Final reports describing the results of the six feasibility studies in Östhammar, Nyköping, Oskarshamn, Tierp, Älv- karleby and Hultsfred were submitted during the autumn and winter of 2000/2001. With this as a basis, the siting work can now proceed to the next phase – site investigations. In this stage, investigations that include test drilling will be conducted on at least two sites. In December 2000, SKB published the report “Integrated account of method, site selec- tion and programme prior to the site investigation phase,” in which SKB stipulates where they want to conduct site investigations and how they will be carried out. The report is being reviewed by the Swedish Nuclear Power Inspectorate during the first half of 2001. Before the site investigations can be initiated, the go-ahead is required from the national safety authorities, the Government, and concerned municipalities and landowners.
