Global Threat Reduction Programme (GTRP) – SNF Interim Storage Facility and Site Security Upgrades

This project built an interim Spent Nuclear Fuel (SNF) storage facility for the icebreaker vessel ‘Lotta’ at an Atomflot site in Russia, supplied 50 SNF storage casks, and improved the site’s physical protection systems. This facility provided safe long-term storage for 3,500 spent fuel rods that cannot be reprocessed at the present time of the project. This project also involved the initial stage for the installation of physical protection on the ‘Lotta’ that is used for the transportation of nuclear and radioactive materials.
