This Low Level Waste (LLW) Repository has operated as a national LLW disposal facility since 1959. Wastes are compacted and placed in containers before being transferred to the facility. Following a major upgrade of disposal operations in 1995, all LLW is now disposed of in engineered concrete vaults.
Plutonium Contaminated Materials are being removed from the site for long-term storage at nearby Sellafield.
