Brokdorf will be stored. The Federal Office for the Safety of Nuclear Waste Management (BaSE) has approved a corresponding application from the Federal Association for Intermediate Storage (BGZ). The castors will probably be transported across the North Sea and the Elbe on a special armed ship in 2025 and probably delivered by truck to Brokdorf via the port of Brunsbüttel. The ones for...

The tone between North Rhine-Westphalia's Green Vice Prime Minister Mona Neubaur and environmental organizations becomes frosty over highly radioactive Castor transports. In a few months, the first castors with radioactive nuclear waste are to be moved from the former Jülich nuclear research center to the Ahaus interim storage facility. Now representatives from Neubaur's state economics ministry,...

should be driven - for example through the Düsseldorf airport tunnel or over the dilapidated 'Berlin Bridge' of the A59 in the middle of my hometown of Duisburg. Any damage to the castors could lead to the release of radioactivity. Matthias Eickhoff: Furthermore, the nuclear waste in the Ahaus interim storage facility is not a bit safer than in Jülich. You have to explain that. Eickhoff: The interim storage facility...
THTR Circular No. 156, December 2023
Jülich THTR nuclear waste soon on the streets? The small THTR experimental reactor in Jülich was decommissioned in 1988. Since then, the 300.000 radioactive fuel balls have been stored there in 152 castors. Now they are to be taken via the motorway to the interim storage facility in Ahaus, 170 kilometers away, where the nuclear waste from Hamm is already stored. A second test drive without radioactive cargo took place on...

“It is adequately secured against terrorist attacks and plane crashes, so it only has an operating license until 2034,” says Felix Ruwe from the citizens’ initiative No Nuclear Waste in Ahaus. Castors are only designed for 40 years. Ruwe criticizes that the Castor containers are also only designed for a period of 40 years. In view of the completely unresolved final storage issue, nuclear waste must...
There the motorway slip road from the Ahaus/Legden exit on the A31 reaches the city. We call for participation in order to advance the resistance against the absurd transfer of nuclear waste from the 152 castors with 300 highly radioactive fuel elements.

The initiatives point out that the former operators of the AVR reactor were “responsible until final storage” for the approximately 300.000 fuel balls in the 152 Jülich castors.

create! We are calling for the following dates and activities: October 01st: Forest walk "Sterki remains" in Oberhausen - against the expansion of the A3 - this is exactly the route over which the 152 Castoren should travel from Jülich to Ahaus.

sealed. However, this does not mean that the problems are gone. The question still remains unsolved: what to do with the radioactive waste packed in special containers for highly radioactive materials, so-called castors. Since there is no final storage facility in sight, the spent fuel remains in interim storage facilities for decades. Responsible for operations and safety is...
Friends, we are once again calling for the rally in Ahaus this Sunday, August 20th, at 14 p.m., at the “Mahner” in the pedestrian zone. The aim is to prevent the 152 Westcastors with 300 highly radioactive fuel elements from being transported from Jülich to Ahaus.

further - with the BI protest rally "No nuclear waste in Ahaus" in front of the warning in the pedestrian zone. The aim is to prevent the concrete preparations that are now underway for the transport of the 152 West Castors from Jülich to Ahaus and then the Castors from Garching/Munich to Ahaus.
