The roadmap describes typical programme goals, activities and capabilities needed against 7 themes, which are each further broken down into sub-themes and domains in what we can call the Goals Breakdown Structure (GBS). This document provides the overall goal for Integrated Waste Management Routes and Strategic Options (Identify and evaluate potentially available concepts and technical solutions for spent fuel and radioactive waste management, taking account of national or local conditions, such as available predisposal and storage options, geological environments, national technical and economic resources and expertise etc.). This is supplemented by typical activities, according to phases of implementation, needed to achieve the domain goal. Activities are generic and are common to most regional and geological disposal programmes.
