Reporting on the event, BelRAO published a video with renderings of the planned site.<\/p>\n<p>As BelRAO director <b>Dzmitry Lohvin<\/b> stated, the main task is <i>&#8220;to ensure the complete isolation of radioactive waste from the environment.&#8221;<\/i><\/p>\n<p><i>&#8220;Our task is to create a facility that guarantees the complete isolation of radioactive waste from the environment. We strive for maximum transparency: people should see and understand exactly how the protective barriers work and why the solutions we have chosen meet the strictest global safety standards,&#8221;<\/i> he said.<\/p>\n<p>The construction site has not yet been determined. Three options had previously been mentioned: territory near the Belarusian nuclear power plant in Astravets, sites in Mahilyow Region, and areas of the Polesie State Radiation-Ecological Reserve near the borders with Lithuania, Russia, and Ukraine. It was reported that the construction of the facility would require an area of about one square kilometer.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_523242\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-523242\"
