What Happened to Fulbeck's Proposed Nuclear Waste Dump in the 1980s?
In 1986 The Nuclear Industry Radioactive Waste Executive (NIREX) were looking for somewhere to dispose of low level waste. Fulbeck Airfield in South Kesteven Lincolnshire was one of four flat clay-based sites chosen for exploratory digging for a potential shallow dump.If the plans had gone through it would have meant five train loads of radioactive waste would be buried per week for 50 years three miles from the village of Fulbeck. To the relief of local protestors the plans were dropped in 1987.
Come along to find out more about what happened in this expert talk and presentation by three lecturers from the University of Lincoln.
Now the people of Theddlethorpe and Mablethorpe are facing the prospect of a massive new proposed coastal nuclear waste dump in their area.
The Village Hall will be open from 6.30pm for food and drink with the talk starting at 7.30pm
£3 per person.
No need to book just turn up and pay at the door.
