The Nuclear Decommissioning Authority’s business plan for 2015 to 2016, released yesterday, calls for an overall spending level of £3.31 billion ($4.93 billion). The bulk of that, £1.95 billion ($2.9 billion), will go to the Sellafield site, where the NDA recently announced a decision to take over management from parent body organization Nuclear Management Partners. Spending levels at the Magnox sites and Research Sites Restoration Limited reactors are set at £602 million ($896 million). The plan covers NDA’s planned spending levels from April 2015 to March 2018.
NDA CEO John Clarke said in the plan: “For the NDA itself, as well as sharp focus on the Sellafield transition, work in the upcoming year will be dominated by the third review of our overarching decommissioning strategy. With publication anticipated for March 2016, efforts will be concentrated on fully re-affirming the strategic direction of travel and confirming that it will deliver the long-term outcomes required for the success of our mission.”
