controlled robots, sealed in safe containers, and stored temporarily above ground. Preparations include creating a new shaft that will be big enough and building the above ground storage facility. The estimated costs for the closure of the mine are estimated to be at least 3.7 billion Euro. The recovery of the waste and closure of the mine will be paid with tax money, not by the operators of the German nuclear plants, even though most of the waste was created by them. The beginning of the recovery is planned to start in 2033 and is estimated to last for decades.

ten in the southern flank of the mine at depths from 725 to 750 metres (2,379 to 2,461 ft) below surface. Between 1972 and 1977, exclusively medium-level radioactive waste was emplaced in a chamber on the 511 metres (1,677 ft) level. Research was stopped in 1995; between 1995 and 2004 cavities were filled with salt. After media reports in 2008 about brine contaminated with radioactive

Liquids such as evaporator concentrates, sludges, oils, resins and solvents had to be bound as solids. According to some former employees barrels of liquid waste were accepted in the early days of storage. 17: 285:

The radioactive waste would have been dissolved by the solution and would have had the potential to contaminate the groundwater. The magnesium chloride solution would also have reacted with the cement which could have created explosions and

used the mine on behalf of the Federal Ministry of Research to test the handling and storage of radioactive waste in a repository. Between 1967 and 1978 low-level and intermediate-level radioactive waste were emplaced in 13 chambers in the Asse II mine. Two chambers are located in the middle part and

After the controversies about the facility became public and the operator was changed to the Federal Office for Radiation Protection, a new plan was developed in 2010. It became obvious that the recovery of the waste is necessary for long-term safety. The waste is planned to be collected by remotely

The shifts would lead to an uncontrollable increase in water inflow and make continued dry operation impossible. 268:
In 1979 a report on the stability of the mine was released by a working group under HH Juergens, which describes an imminent scenario of uncontrolled plastic flow from the surrounding rock on the southern flank resulting in the subsequent loss of the load carrying capacity. The manager of Asse II in

The waste containers were only intended to be safe during transportation to the facility. They do not have long time stability and rust after some years, especially in a salty environment. The salt surrounding them was intended to be the only containment for the waste. There never was an intention

Because of the large number of tunnels and chambers, and the decades of use, deformation in Asse II has reached a state where the pressurised surrounding salt is losing its stability: "The supporting construction is softening by creep deformation, plasticity effects and local fractures from ground

In the first years of operation the barrels were stored in orderly rows and space was left so it was theoretically possible to inspect them. In the later years, when most of the waste was brought in, the drums were rolled off a salt embankment into the chambers and the layers covered by salt. This

However the type of the waste was determined by the measurable amount of radiation outside of the container, not by the actual contents of the vessel. Because of this it must be assumed that the containers with concrete shielding also contained medium level waste, raising their number from 1293 to

125,787 drums of low level radioactive waste stored from 1967 to 1978 in various chambers at the 750-metre (2,460 ft) level. The containers are mostly drums with volumes from 100 to 400 litres (26 to 106 US gal) or concrete vessels. The declared total activity at the time of storage

First plans for a permanent closure were developed between 1992 and 2007. Recovery of waste was not considered feasible. During this time many cavities of the mine were filled with salt as an intent to stabilize it. To fill all cavities it was planned to fill the mine with a magnesium chloride

For the period 1906 to 1988, when Asse II was an operational salt mine, there were 29 documented water breaches. They were sometimes successfully sealed off, partly dry or sometimes with negligible inflows (less than 0.5 cubic metres (130 US gal) per day).

Typically salt mining is structurally unsupported. Stresses produced in the remaining salt structure during construction of the mine voids are accommodated in the overlying rock.
