1 INTRODUCTION

In Finland, the government in November 1983 reached a decision on the objectives 
of nuclear waste research. The decision calls for making preparations for the final 
disposal of spent nuclear fuel. The selection of the disposal site has to be made 
before the end of the year 2000. Each utility producing radioactive waste has to 
bear the responsibility for its waste management and the research work involved.

The Industrial Power Company Ltd. (Teollisuuden Voima Oy, TVO) which operates 
two BWR units at the Olkiluoto power plant in southwestern Finland, is preparing to 
take all the steps necessary in the management of spent fuel in Finland if no feasible 
services are available in foreign countries.

At the beginning of 1983, the Industrial Power Company Ltd. launched a site 
selection program, in which the first target is set for the end of 1985. Before the 
end of 1985, suitable areas have to be selected for the field surveys beginning in
1986. The geological studies for the selection of investigation areas are being done 
by the Geologiacal Survey of Finland (GTK).
