Abstract

International repositories, which will be operated in underground geological structures and where spent nuclear fuel originating from several states will be disposed, have been discussed as an option to construction of national underground repositories for several decades. Such international repositories manifest several advantages as compared with exclusive national repositories. Fact is, that despite obvious benefits, that may establishment of international repositories imply for smaller states, these installations will also represent a considerable source of risk, as dangerous substances will be deposited in them for hundreds of years. Consequently, prospective construction of international repositories in the future must be accompanied by existence of an effective regime of liability for damages, that may potentially occur. This article aims to address the question, if the currently existing international framework is capable to cover risks arising from operation of prospective international repositories, or if a new legal framework is to be established in this regard.
《国际核废料处置编年史》预言:未来核责任法的一项调查
国际储存库将在地下地质结构中运作,并将在那里处置来自若干国家的乏核燃料。几十年来,人们一直在讨论作为建设国家地下储存库的一种选择。与排他性的国家储存库相比,这种国际储存库表现出若干优势。事实是,尽管建立国际核废料储存库可能对较小的国家有明显的好处,但这些设施也将构成相当大的风险来源,因为危险物质将在其中存放数百年。因此,未来国际储存库的建设必须伴随着可能发生的损害赔偿责任的有效制度。本文旨在解决以下问题:当前现有的国际框架是否能够涵盖未来国际储存库运营所产生的风险,或者是否需要在这方面建立新的法律框架。
