Mr. Frank Turvey:

The spent fuel can be wrapped up in concrete and steel. In fact I have been involved in this business. There are drums three or four feet tall and about two and a half feet wide. The waste is contained in cement or concrete within these drums, which are quite small, and they can be exported. The fuel elements themselves, which are a different type of waste, are also exported to a supplier country where they will be reprocessed and the material used again in the latest types of reactor, which can use that waste as a fuel.
