only learned from the press about the time difference in the search for a storage site for the nuclear waste. The search for a final repository for the highly radioactive nuclear waste should be science-based, fair and transparent, and the public should be involved in the process at an early stage - this is what the Site Selection Act of 2017 stipulates . At least some of these criteria have now been violated...
Lubmin: BUND calls for a “hot cell” The search for a final storage facility for German nuclear waste is taking longer than planned. Therefore, highly radioactive waste must be stored in the Lubmin interim storage facility beyond 2050. It is questionable whether there will be a final storage facility for nuclear waste in Germany in 2050. The search is taking longer than planned. That's why 74 castors have to be kept in the Lubmin interim storage...

in Lubmin this Tuesday, the Federation for the Environment and Nature Conservation Germany (BUND) reiterates the demand for a new look at German nuclear waste storage. Germany's highly radioactive waste is stored in 16 interim storage facilities, some of which are highly problematic and do not meet the necessary safety requirements. For the first time in over 15 years there are now concrete plans for a...
