The Norwegian Ministry of Trade, Industry and Fisheries wishes to enter into an agreement to deliver the clean-up and disposal of radioactive waste subject to compulsory disposal from the Søve mines in Nome Municipality in Telemark. During the period between 1953 and 1965, AS Norsk Bergverk was responsible for the extraction of niobium and the production of ferroniobium at Søve. The production of ferroniobium resulted in uranium and thorium becoming concentrated in the slag that was deposited on a slope outside the so-called ‘workshop building’. The slag is now mixed with other materials and has been partially covered. The Norwegian Radiation Protection Authority considers that the level of activity in the area around the abandoned mine is sufficiently high that parts of the residual material must be permanently secured. The clean-up must fulfil the Radiation Protection Authority's requirements set out in an order to the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Fisheries dated 14 March 2014 concerning clean-up at Søve. The objective of the measure is to secure the waste subject to compulsory disposal following the mining at Søve for the foreseeable future, so that it does not cause damage/injury or nuisance for the population and the environment. Use of the area where the waste subject to compulsory disposal is now located must not be restricted on the basis of the former presence of the waste from the Søve mines following completion of the measures.
