Waste Storage
Near to the Chernobyl site, the Vektor Radioactive Waste Storage Facility is being built, consisting of the Industrial Complex for Solid Radwaste Management (ICSRM), a nuclear waste storage site. It is being constructed by Nukem Technologies, a German nuclear decommissioning company which is a subsidiary of the Russian Atomstroyexport. This storage is reported to be able to contain 75000 cubic meters. The storage is both for (temporal) high level waste as well as low and intermediate level waste storage.

Famous quotes containing the words waste and/or storage:
“For the people in government, rather than the people who pester it, Washington is an early-rising, hard-working city. It is a popular delusion that the government wastes vast amounts of money through inefficiency and sloth. Enormous effort and elaborate planning are required to waste this much money.”
—P.J. (Patrick Jake)
“Many of our houses, both public and private, with their almost innumerable apartments, their huge halls and their cellars for the storage of wines and other munitions of peace, appear to me extravagantly large for their inhabitants. They are so vast and magnificent that the latter seem to be only vermin which infest them.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
