Minister Canavan recently announced that an AEC vote for Kimba and Flinders Ranges on the waste dump would begin on August 20th. This announcement came in the midst of a Senate Inquiry into the site selection process and the vote is planned for just after the Senate report is due. There are 
many community voices expressed in the submissions that you can read online here.

Federal nuclear waste dump plan – unnecessary for medical purposes – theme for May 2018
The Lucas Heights nuclear reactor offers a “cover”, respectability, for the nuclear power and nuclear waste industries to get into this country.
The real agenda for Australia’s Lucas Heights nuclear reactor has always been to maintain an opening for the nuclear industry. With Lucas Heights and ANSTO, nuclear expertise is continued, in preparation for possible Australian nuclear power, and nuclear weapons.
The Lucas Heights nuclear reactor now functions as a support for the Australian uranium industry, and a foot in the door for an Australian nuclear waste import industry.
ANSTO is not facing up to the reality that non-nuclear methods – e.g cyclotrons can now produce all medical radioisotopes. Nor is ANSTO admitting that medical radioactive wastes are most suitably be dealt with at the local level, near the point of use. NO NEED FOR A NUCLEAR WASTE DUMP OVER A THOUSAND Km AWAY!
