Our
external staff
ONDRAF/NIRAS
can perform its tasks either by making use of its own resources or by
subcontracting to third parties operating under its responsibility and
under its supervision, including companies in which it has a shareholding.
In
practice, the Agency subcontracts the transport of radioactive waste to
specialised carriers. Belgoprocess, a subsidiary of ONDRAF/NIRAS based
in Dessel, is responsible for the bulk of waste processing and conditioning
operations, and for interim storage.
For
studies and research projects, ONDRAF/NIRAS collaborates with universities,
research consultancies such as Belgatom, research centres such as SCK·CEN,
which is its partner in the EURIDICE EIG (Economic Interest Grouping)
venture, engineering consultancies such as Tractebel, and other specialised
companies, both at home and abroad.
