Sources of further information

Further information can be found primarily in Czech, Slovak and Polish National Reports prepared under the Joint Convention on the safety of spent fuel management and on the safety of radioactive waste management (Czech National Report, 2008, National Report of Slovak Republic, 2008, National Report of Poland, 2008). A wide range of information is included in a variety of IAEA reports. In particular, it is possible to find a lot of information on waste management systems in Eastern European countries in the reports dealing with WWER waste management system or remedia­tion of contaminated sites after uranium mining and milling activities (IAEA, 1995, 2000, 2004, 2005, 2006).

It is also possible to find summaries of information on waste manage­ment systems in Eastern European countries in European reports compiled before accession of these countries to the European Union (EC DGXI, 1999, 2000 ).
