HMNB Portsmouth
Waste arisings do not occur at a constant rate and are difficult to determine as they are dependent on a number of factors such as equipment being declared as obsolete and legacy items being returned following site closures. The site is forecast to produce only small quantities of ILW, and volumes are estimated to 2063.
Information is presented about wastes that existed at HMNB Portsmouth at the stock date (1 April 2022) and were forecast to arise after this date.

From 1 April 2022 there is a net decrease in the volume of HLW because accumulated highly active liquor is being conditioned, which reduces its volume by about two-thirds, and also because vitrified HLW is being exported to overseas customers.
