Decommissioning of Dounreay should be completed by 2033
|
Caithness residents are being given a say on the condition they would like the atomic plant at Dounreay left in following the site's £2.7bn clean-up.
Options range from a green-field site to one with some contaminated ground where access would be restricted and a security presence needed.
There is also the possibility of industrial or commercial use.
The Dounreay Decommissioning Authority has asked the Dounreay Stakeholders Group to gather community opinions.
A spokeswoman for the UK Atomic Energy Authority (UKAEA), which operates Dounreay, said: "This community has lived with Dounreay for 50 years.
"It would be great to get their input into how the site should be redeveloped."
