Final repository plans in Sweden failed ---------------------------------------------------------------------- After five weeks of reviewing the Swedish final disposal plans for high level active waste (HAW) in the Swedish Land and Environmental Court (MMD), the judges' conclusions were published in the end of January 2018: They recommended the government not to issue the operator SKB (Swedish Nuclear Fuel and Waste Management Company) a license for their proposed underground repository 500 meters underground in Forsmark, on the coast north of Stockholm. However, the Swedish Radiation Safety Authority (SSM) stated to the government they support the application of SKB. It is unique that two governmental bodies land on totally different opinions.

International Anti-nuclear Summer Camp 2018 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- We want to invite you to a week of international knowledge exchange, experience sharing and a warm feeling of resistance in France. Our international Anti-nuclear Summer Camp will take place close to Narbonne from 6th of August to 12th of August this year. We, the organizing group, are independent anti-nuclear activists from different countries across the world. We want to organise a gathering with a lot of space for international networking, share of knowledge and experiences and extend of knowledge about anti-nuclear topics. Also, we want to give the opportunity of summer camp feeling and fun. To give the summer camp a structure there are two main topics as a stream during the week: One part will be the uranium conversion facility of the company Orano (formerly Areva) in Narbonne-Malvési. We want to focus on this topic because we think it is important to support the local groups and to share knowledge about developments in uranium conversion processes like the disposal of radioactive waste. The other part will be the transport of Uranium in all stages and radioactive waste and the safety issues of it.

News about nuclear power in California ---------------------------------------------------------------------- California's Public Utilities Commission announced that the Diablo Canyon nuclear facility, the state's last operating reactors would be closed down at the end of its current license period in 2024-25, and possibly sooner if the facility's finances or safety issues suggest earlier closure. The same agency also returned over $873 million to ratepayers as part of the closure of San Onofre in Southern California in 2013. Protests continued around onsite storage of spent nuclear fuel at the former site which has many active faults close by. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 4. When will the Czech Republic wake up from dreams of nuclear reactors? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The Czech Republic's energy security requires a new energy policy with an emphasis on the still untapped potential of energy efficiency and the necessary continuation of the development of renewable energy sources. The fulfillment of a number of obligations of today's rapidly obsolete State Energy Policy has been delayed for years. The fundamental deficiency of plans for building new reactors is the high investment costs – direct/indirect and current/future.
