major skyline change with the removal of a diffuser that sat on top of its 125m
high Windscale Pile Chimney. Meanwhile, Magnox has successfully transferred its
first active waste package into its new interim storage facility at
Chapelcross. Dounreay retrieved more than 1,800 litres of radioactive sodium

now engaged in the process.
