EARWG

Environment Agencies Requirements Working Group. The purpose of the EARWG is to identify and share good practice in the: (a) minimisation, re-use and recycling of solid radioactive waste (Low Level Waste and Very Low Level Waste) across the industry and in this respect support the UK Nuclear Industry National Low Level Waste Management Plan Re-use and Recycling (RR1) Initiative; and (b) monitoring/ assay of radioactive wastes (solid, liquid and gaseous). In doing so, EARWG will facilitate transparency of the information used by sites to meet the Additional Information and Improvement Requirements (AIIRs) specified in Environmental Permits/ Authorisations issued by the EA and SEPA to nuclear Operators by sharing information regarding waste minimisation and assay techniques, which in turn will help to reduce costs to sites.
