Short Information about the Konrad repository
The Konrad repository is located in Salzgitter, Lower Saxony. It is the first repository licensed under nuclear law in Germany, with a licence for the construction and operation of the repository having been in place since 2002. The former iron-ore mine is currently being converted into a repository and will then be used to store up to 303,000 cubic metres of low- and intermediate-level radioactive waste.
