Historical Radioactive Waste 1957 – 1975: 3000 barrels1975 – Radioactive Waste Treatment Plant ;1985 - Baita Bihor repository2000: still 879 barrels stored at Magurele site
solutions:
- ANDRAD, CNCAN: unacceptable solution - keep them in long term storage at Magurele
- IFIN-HH with the support of ANCS and AN and under a cooperation project with DTI –UK : final disposal at Baita Bihor repository (1 million euros) 2006: all the historical radioactive waste – solved issue

Programs to upgrade the infrastructure related to Radioactive Waste Management
•Phare 2006 - “ Upgrading of the Radioactive Waste Treatment Plant (STDR) from IFIN-HH” (TA+W)
• - AQUA EXPRESS installation for liquid waste treatment (IFIN-HH funds– 70.000 USD)
• - equipments and devices - HG 902 /2010 (821. 000 Euro)
• Phare 2006 - “ Up-Grading of the Baita-Bihor Repository for Institutional Radioactive Waste in Romania” (TA+W)• TA – EU – (444.567 Euro)• W – IFIN-HH funds (1,1 Meuro)
•TCP - Assistance to Develop Technology and Improve Capability for the Conditioning of Disused Sealed Radioactive Sources including Alpha and Neutron Sources - ROM 3/006 - 104.948 USD ( 2007 – 2009 )•TCP - Strengthening IFIN-HH Capacity in Radioactive Waste Management - ROM 9/029 – 80.655 USD – (2009 – 2011)

Decommisioning of theVVRS Research Reactor
HG 898/2009 (2010-2020)
Stages:2010-2012: Site preparation and shipment in the RF of the Spent Fuel
2011-2013: Modernization of the Radioactive Waste Treatment Plant installations
2013–2020: Decomissioning works and radioactive waste management
Essential: uninterrupted flux of the radioactive waste
Research Reactor Decommissioning ⇨ Waste Treatment Plant and storage Final Disposal⇨ at Baita Repository
IFIN-HH position : The transfer of the Baita Bihor repository from IFIN-HH would produce major perturbation of the activity and it is completely
unacceptable
