COMMISSION OPINION

of 7 November 2017

relating to the plan for the disposal of radioactive waste arising from the Neckarwestheim RBZ-N radioactive waste treatment facility, located in the land of Baden-Württemberg, Germany

(Only the German text is authentic)

(2017/C 379/01)

The assessment below is carried out under the provisions of the Euratom Treaty, without prejudice to any additional assessments to be carried out under the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union and the obligations stemming from it and from secondary legislation (1).

On 27 April 2017, the European Commission received from the Government of Germany, in accordance with Article 37 of the Euratom Treaty, General Data relating to the plan for the disposal of radioactive waste (2) arising from the Neckarwestheim RBZ-N radioactive waste treatment facility.

On the basis of these data and following consultation with the Group of Experts, the Commission has drawn up the following opinion:

| 1. | The distance between the site and the nearest border with another Member State, in this case France is 69 km. |
| --- | --- |

1.

The distance between the site and the nearest border with another Member State, in this case France is 69 km.

| 2. | During normal operations of the Neckarwestheim RBZ-N radioactive waste treatment facility, the discharges of liquid and gaseous radioactive effluents are not liable to cause an exposure of the population in another Member State that would be significant from the point of view of health, in respect of the dose limits laid down in the Basic Safety Standards Directives (3). |

Solid radioactive waste is temporarily stored on site before shipment to licensed treatment or disposal facilities located in Germany.

| 4. | In the event of unplanned releases of radioactive effluents that may follow the accidents of the type and magnitude considered in the General Data, the doses likely to be received by the population of another Member State would not be significant from the point of view of health, in respect of the reference levels laid down in the Basic Safety Standards Directives. |

In conclusion, the Commission is of the opinion that the implementation of the plan for the disposal of radioactive waste in whatever form, arising from the Neckarwestheim RBZ-N radioactive waste treatment facility, located in the land of Baden-Württemberg, Germany, both in normal operation and in the event of the accidents of the type and magnitude considered in the General Data, is not liable to result in a radioactive contamination, significant from the point of view of health, of the water, soil or airspace of another Member State, in respect of the provisions laid down in the Basic Safety Standards Directives.

COMMISSION OPINION

of 7 November 2017

relating to the plan for the disposal of radioactive waste arising from the Unterweser Radioactive Waste Storage Facility, located on the site of the Unterweser KKU nuclear power plant in the Land of Lower Saxony, Germany

(Only the German text is authentic)

(2017/C 379/02)

The assessment below is carried out under the provisions of the Euratom Treaty, without prejudice to any additional assessments to be carried out under the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union and the obligations stemming from it and from secondary legislation (1).

On 17 February 2017, the European Commission received from the Government of Germany, in accordance with Article 37 of the Euratom Treaty, General Data relating to the plan for the disposal of radioactive waste (2) arising from the Unterweser Radioactive Waste Storage Facility.

On the basis of these data and additional information requested by the Commission on 25 April 2017 and provided by the German authorities on 29 June 2017, and following consultation with the Group of Experts, the Commission has drawn up the following opinion:

| 1. | The distance between the site and the nearest border with another Member State, in this case The Netherlands is 90 km. |
| --- | --- |

1.

The distance between the site and the nearest border with another Member State, in this case The Netherlands is 90 km.

| 2. | During normal operating conditions, the Unterweser Radioactive Waste Storage Facility will not discharge liquid or gaseous radioactive effluents into the environment. Hence this facility will not be subject to a regulatory discharge authorisation for such effluents. The facility is thus not liable to cause an exposure of the population in another Member State that would be significant from the point of view of health, in respect of the dose limits laid down in the Basic Safety Standards Directives (3). |
