Thomas Thöni

Thomas Thöni is a spokesperson for the Swiss Federal Nuclear Safety Inspectorate (Ensi), which is responsible for reviewing the framework approval application for the planned deep repository for radioactive waste in Nördlich Lägern. He has expressed concerns that the potential closure of the Mont Terri rock laboratory could have long-term implications for the evaluation of applications related to deep repositories, emphasizing that there would be no equivalent replacement for the research conducted at that facility.
