In 2017, the Dutch radioactive waste management agency (COVRA) completed its major, five-year research programme on the feasibility of disposal of the national inventory of higher-activity wastes into the Boom Clay (the OPERA Programme).  Neil Chapman and Charles McCombie were members of the Safety Case Steering Group during the project and are co-authors of the final OPERA Safety Case report and Summary, published in December 2017.
