Disposal Facility Closure

Disposal Facility Closure is a formal process within the lifecycle management of radioactive waste disposal systems, specifically denoting the planned termination of operational activities at a near-surface disposal facility, distinguished by the implementation of final engineered and administrative measures to ensure long-term isolation of waste from the biosphere and to prevent inadvertent human intrusion.
