In particular, the Australian Government is exploring options in the market for the delivery of the following services, to achieve the Objectives:

· Waste Characterisation: details of analytical tools, equipment and techniques to measure characteristics of radioactive waste and capabilities of measuring, collecting, analysing and deriving properties and waste histories.

· Treatment and Packaging: preparing radioactive waste for transport, availability of transport, and tools and procedures for transport.

· Transport: details of capability to transport dangerous goods, including radioactive materials and various hazardous chemical classes, transport modes, vehicle availability, capacity, robustness to disruption, and flexibility to accommodate different types of packages.

· Storage and Disposal: waste that can be accepted for storage and/or disposal within an established or future planned facility, the capacity of and possible upgrades required for facilities to receive radioactive waste, how soon facilities can take radioactive waste for disposal, including licences and permits, the throughput of packages that can be accommodated, site characterisation studies, site safety cases, generic schedules for proposed work if the proponent does not yet have a site, and provisions for the long-term security of facilities, demonstration of social acceptance/ community consent for the facility, environmental licences or permits for the facility, the robustness of routes for transportation of waste and disruption from events such as flooding or accidents.

· Innovation: new and emerging techniques and approaches to long term storage and disposal of radioactive waste.
