    About this event

    The Environment Agency has recently given Augean a permit to store low level radioactive waste on the Kings Cliffe site in Northamptonshire, only a few miles to the west of Peterborough. Despite the proposal being vigorously opposed by many people in the locality, the company was still given the permit. In this talk, Gene Wilson will explain the approach to safety in the storage of waste of this nature. Come and make up your own mind as to the rights and wrongs of this subject.
