Welcome to the West Cumbria Managing Radioactive Waste Safely Partnership.
Managing Radioactive Waste Safely is the name of the Government process to find, and put in place, a long-term solution for the UK's higher activity radioactive wastes.
We are an advisory body aiming to 'make recommendations to Allerdale Borough Council, Copeland Borough Council and Cumbria County Council on whether they should participate in the geological disposal facility siting process, without commitment to eventually host a facility'.
