Sessions VI to VIII: Geological disposal Introduction and objectives Euratom support to research in geological disposal – a new dawn? At the end of the Sixth Framework Programme (FP6), Euratom programmes had been supporting research in the field of geological disposal of radioactive waste for more than three decades. In recent years, the scientific community has gradually come to the conclusion that generic research and the knowledge in most areas of the safety case have reached sufficient maturity to enable step-wise implementation of geological disposal, even though actual progress has been slow in most Member States. During FP6, the EC launched a number of IPs and an NoE in key areas of repository systems and processes common to multiple host rock types. The objective of this new approach to research has been, on the strategic level, to further increase co-operation, integration, and co-ordination of efforts at European level while, on the technical level, building on past research in order to reduce uncertainties and thereby increase safety margins and confidence in the soundness of geological disposal in general. The purpose of the sessions on geological disposal will be to take stock of the progress made by Euratom FP6 research projects in their respective scientific fields and in integrating research at European level. The objective of Euratom FP7 (2007-2011) in the area of geological disposal is to support implementation-oriented R&D on all remaining key aspects, and therefore the panel discussions organised in the areas of near- and far-field processes will provide a key opportunity to review whether and which research is still needed. Equally, the presentation and panel discussions on the strategic co-ordination of R&D for waste disposal in the EU should establish the state of play on the relevance and readiness of the key R&D stakeholders to set up a technology platform for the development and implementation of a strategic research agenda in this field. The results of this exercise will no doubt have an important impact on the content and implementation of Euratom FP7 work programmes and future Euratom framework programmes, possibly heralding a new dawn for Community support for R&D in the area of geological disposal. 157
