Abstract
In the peaceful use of nuclear energy radioactive wastes of all categories occur which have to be safely disposed of. Taking into consideration the safety as well as the economic aspect of the various possibilities for final disposal, the one in salt formations of the deep geological subsurface is to be considered as the safest. This applies in particular to the countries of Western Europe with their high density of population and their rainy climate.
