چکیده

The Korean government has strived to secure a disposal site for the safe management of radioactive waste since the early 1980s. The 249 th meeting of the Atomic Energy Commission (AEC) held in September 1998 established the “National Radioactive Waste Management Policy”, which aims at completing the construction of a Low and Intermediate Level Radioactive Waste (LILW) disposal facility by 2008, and a centralized spent fuel interim-storage facility by 2016; site selection was not successful, however. Therefore, a revision of the policy was made at the 253 rd AEC meeting held on December 17, 2004, stipulating the completion of the construction of the LILW disposal facility by 2008.

A summary of the national policy statements includes the following:
