Science & Technology Group News

I have booked a meeting on Tuesday 22nd October at the British Legion starting at 2.30pm.

My intention is to do a follow-up to the visit to the Heysham Nuclear Power Stations which took place in September. There are several facets to this.
  • Review what we were told on the visit and to add more detail.
  • The above will allow members who were not able to attend the visit some understanding of how an Advance Gas-cooled Reactor (AGR) operates.
  • Look at things that we weren't told.
  • Look at Nuclear Waste Storage.
There will be a £2 charge for this meeting to pay for room hire.

Derek.
