ERDO Association
ERDO members come from different organisations with a mission to work together to address the common challenges of safely managing the long-lived radioactive wastes in their countries. The members are developing both national and shared waste disposal options until the optimum solution for each country becomes apparent – this is called the Dual-Track approach.
