Critics are denouncing plans to build a new interim storage facility for low- and medium-level radioactive nuclear waste at the site of the former W眉rgassen nuclear power plant in Germany, . On Friday, the Federal Company for Interim Storage (BGZ) to create a central interim storage facility at the site, to receive waste from plants being decommissioned all over the country as Germany phases out nuclear power. The site would not store high-level radioactive waste, such as spent fuel rods, the BGZ said. The waste would then be processed for final storage at the Schacht聽Konrad former mine site near Salzgitter, about a hundred kilometres away. Work at the聽Schacht聽Konrad聽site has been repeatedly delayed, taz reports, but the facility is supposed to open in 2027.

Environmental groups say the聽Schacht聽Konrad聽site is unfit for nuclear storage, and object to the planned interim storage site in W眉rgassen. 鈥淭he planned聽Schacht聽Konrad聽nuclear waste storage facility does not correspond to the state of the art in science and technology and would not be approved today,鈥� said Olaf Bandt of Friends of the Earth Germany (BUND) , adding that creating an additional interim storage site in W眉rgassen creates new risks for the local community. 鈥淎n additional storage facility would also make more nuclear transports necessary, thus increasing the danger to the population,鈥� Bandt says in the press release. Germany聽has a long history of anti-nuclear activism聽and has committed to phasing out all nuclear power by 2022.
