Export of Uranium Hexafluoride Tailings and Spent Containers
This analysis considers the hidden international exchange of empty but highly contaminated UF6 containers from the Portsmouth uranium enrichment plant in the United States, where the export is little more than a ruse to ship radioactive waste abroad, to the Russian Federation Siberian radioa-chemical plant at which, or so it is claimed, the residue.

Summary
Swedish Irradiated Fuel CLAB Strategy
Sweden’s irradiated fuel management strategy involves moving spent fuel from each of the nuclear power stations to a central fuel storage facility (CLAB). Spent fuel will remain at CLAB until it can be transferred to a deep disposal repository (SFL) some time after year 2008. All fuel movements from the NPPs to CLAB, except for the Oskarshamn reactors nearby, are by the specially adapted ship M/S Sigyn using internationally approved transportation flasks.
Part i Part iiHEU Irradiated Fuel Transport by Rail in the United Kingdom – Risks and Hazards
This Review identifies potential accidents and malevolent acts that could severely damage a spent fuel transportation flask, thereby enabling the release of radioactivity, in the form of particles and aerosols, and the corresponding health risk imposed on unprotected members of public. Because the rail routes take the spent fuel trains through major urban conurbations (London, Bristol, etc) many thousands of population could be subject to radiation exposure in the aftermath of such an event.
