From day one RWM, now NWS, insisted that if regulators told them their dump was not safe they would not build it. Let's see how that matches the reality.
In 2005 The Environment Agency yold the consortium operating the Drigg Low Level Waste Facility that their facility at Drigg was dangerous.
The Environment Agency said that Coastal erosion would result in contaminated waste spilling oput on the beach. According to what they tell us that sho0uld have meant that the facility was closed. Not only is the site still open almost twenty years after it was declared dangerous, it was expanded. Even now the low level waste repository is still operating and is currently in breach of its licence.
As I read the articles detailing this the NWS claim is ringing in my ears "If the regulators don't think it is safe, we won't be able to build it"
