Prof Smythe counters CoRWM on geology 12/04/11

In February 2011 CoRWM wrote to the Managing Radioactive Waste Safely ‘Partnership’, to assert that there was no basis for Prof David Smythe’s view regarding the unsuitability of West Cumbria. CoRWM wrote: “there is presently no credible scientific case to support the contention that all of West Cumbria is geologically unsuitable”. David Smythe has now refuted the bald assertion above with a detailed 35-page review of the geology and hydrogeology of Cumbria. He sent the review both to MRWS and to CoRWM on 12 April 2011.
