The U.S.-led team managing multi-billion-dollar decommissioning of the U.K.-based Sellafield site, Europe’s most complex civil nuclear-energy site, will have its contract ended less than one year into its second five-year term.
The U.K.'s Nuclear Decommissioning Authority will retake control of the site license company, Sellafield Ltd., which is now owned by the private consortium called Nuclear Management Partners Ltd. (NMP).
