The Techa Cascade
of water reservoirs (TCR) is one of the most environmentally challenging
facilities resulted from FSUE “PA Mayak” operations.
Its reservoirs
hold over 360 mln m3 of liquid radioactive waste with a total activity of some
5∙1015 Bq which is about 0.1% of the total radioactivity released from the
Chernobyl accident and occupy an area equivalent to roughly the size of 7,000
football fields.
A set of actions
implemented under a special state program involving the development of a
strategic plan aimed at complete elimination of TCR
challenges (Strategic Master-Plan for the Techa Cascade of water reservoirs)
resulted in considerable reduction of potential hazards associated with this
facility.
