This regulatory document provides clarity about the requirements and provides guidance on the information needed to apply for a licence to prepare site for a DGR facility. A DGR is a facility where radioactive waste is placed in a deep, stable, geological formation (usually several hundred metres or more below the surface). The facility is engineered to isolate and contain radioactive waste to provide the long-term isolation of nuclear substances from the biosphere.
