A planning application will be submitted to Highland Council later this year to cover the next phase of planning at the Dounreay site.

This includes work on the shaft and silo, a new flask facility, low level waste pits retrieval, building demolitions and site remediation and landscaping to return the site to as near as practicable its original condition.

Drop-in sessions have been held around the county to provide members of the public with more information.
