The Disposal System Specification is described in four documents:

  • Disposal System Specification Part A: High Level Requirements
  • Disposal System Specification Part B: Technical Specification
  • Derived Inventory Report
  • Derived Inventory: Scenarios Report

Note: The Derived Inventory Report and the Derived Inventory Scenarios Report on this page employ 2013 data. The generic Disposal System Safety Case is based on these figures. RWM has now published updated figures as the 2019 Inventory for Geological Disposal which will be used to progressively update the gDSSC.
