Abstract:
The Orkney Islands are situated several miles off the north east coast of Scotland and comprise about 40 separate islands, of which about 16 have a significant number of inhabitants. The total population is about 20,000 with 7,500 living in Kirkwall, the main town. The EU Urban Waste Water Treatment Directive (UWWTD) has presented the Orkney Islands Council with an opportunity to develop an integrated waste disposal strategy for the entire group of islands. The problems which must be overcome are common to many island communities with limited land availability and seasonal industries based on

Abstract:
Soils in the urban environment are distinctive in that they are modified through waste amendments. Consideration has been given to how urban soil properties reflect current human influence; however, recent studies highlight their potential as historical archives. The impact of waste disposal on the nature, properties and formation of urban soils is significant, especially in historic small towns where the extent and complexity of refuse management practices is only just emerging. This study uses a multi-method approach to characterise and understand modes of urban anthrosol formation in three

Abstract:
This chapter discusses the factors leading to a breakdown in community waste activism and the defeat of anti-incineration against the developments of ‘Energy From Waste’ and incineration technologies in Scotland. This is an attempt to understand how community action on waste lost momentum within the bigger picture of tackling waste and its impact on climate change. It also looks at the goal of ‘zero waste’ and how it was hijacked by vested interests. At a time when community recycling was at its highest popularity, waste industry businesses produced the new generation of waste disposal facilities, incinerators, which recover the energy released from burning waste. At the same time, a number of policy initiatives, under the influence of industry lobbying, were directing efforts away from community work and towards industry. These events stimulated intense but short lived community struggles against incineration and the demise of community waste initiatives.

Abstract:
Clearance is a very important part of any effective waste management strategy for both operating and decommissioning nuclear facilities. Radioactive waste disposal capacity is becoming an increasingly valuable resource and costs for disposal of radioactive wastes continue to dramatically rise. Considerable cost savings may be realised by efficient segregation of essentially non-radioactive material from radioactive wastes. The release of these materials from licensed nuclear sites for disposal, reuse or recycle without further regulatory controls is commonly referred to by the nuclear industry

Abstract:
In March 2007 the UK Government and devolved administrations (for Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, from here on referred to as ‘Government’) published their policy for the management of solid low level waste (‘the Policy’). The Policy sets out a number of core principles for the management of low level waste (LLW) and charges the Nuclear Decommissioning Authority with developing a UK-wide strategy in the case of LLW from nuclear sites. The UK Nuclear Industry LLW Strategy has been developed within the framework of the principles set out in the policy. A key factor in the development of th

Abstract:
UKAEA’s mission at its Dounreay establishment in the north of Scotland is to restore the site so that it can be used for other purposes, with a minimal effect on the environment and requiring minimal attention by future generations. A Dounreay Site Restoration Plan (DSRP) has been produced. It sets out the decommissioning and radioactive waste management activities to restore the site within the next 60 years. Management of solid low level radioactive waste (LLW) that already exists, and that which will be produced as the DSRP progresses is an essential site restoration activity. Altogether ar
