German nuclear waste to Dounreay?
artdoc April=1992

Germany is facing a storage crisis for its spent Highly Enriched
Uranium (HEU) and is currently considering a report which
recommends that up to 3,100 used fuel elements would be moved to
Dounreay in Scotland. The waste would be temporarily housed at
Dounreay and then either returned to Germany once new storage
facilities have been built, or reprocessed at Dounreay and the
waste kept there for up to 25 years. If it is agreed, there will
be a huge expansion in Dounreay's waste trade with nearly 120
shipments by road, rail and sea where the current contract for
1992 is for 10 such shipments. Northern European Nuclear
Information Group (NENIG), Briefing no 52, February 1992.
