1.  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.

2.  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.

3.  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.
