Under the auspices of the IAEA, nationally developed Underground Research Facilities (URFs) and associated laboratories are being offered for use by other nations. The URFs and laboratories form a “Network of Centres of Excellence” for training in and development of waste disposal technologies. If your organisation is from a participating country in the IAEA training network scheme you may be able to request financial support from the IAEA for courses run as part of the Network scheme.
The annual Assembly of Members will be held on Thursday, 25th March 2010. The principal business will be to review activities in 2009 (our 7th year of operation) and discuss the forward plans for 2010 and 2011.
Our Assembly is the main opportunity for Members to meet and provide input and guidance for the development of the Association, so the Executive really encourages you to attend and take an active part in the discussions.
