Interim Storage Facilities

Interim Storage Facilities are temporary locations where materials, often hazardous waste or nuclear materials, are safely stored until a permanent disposal solution is developed. These facilities ensure that harmful substances are contained securely, preventing environmental contamination and protecting public health. The storage is managed under strict regulations, with regular monitoring to ensure safety. The goal is to provide a responsible, short-term solution while longer-term plans, like recycling or permanent disposal sites, are established.
