Details
Key documents in the WPSGD are the Waste Package Specifications (WPS) which define the requirements for the transport and geological disposal of waste packages manufactured using standardised designs of waste container. The WPS are based on the high level requirements for all waste packages as defined by the generic Disposal System Specification and are derived from the bounding requirements for waste packages containing a specific category of waste, as defined by the relevant Generic Specification.
The purpose of this specification (WPS/300/05) is to define the key features for standard designs of waste containers used for the packaging of Low Heat Generating Waste (LHGW), and to set the minimum standards of performance for the waste packages they are used to produce.
