Geological Disposal Facility could be operated solely by an army of robots

Revelation that GDF could be robotic prompts question over employment.

Where are the jobs? A question surely prompted by the revelation by New
Civil Engineer that NWS chief technical officer John Corderoy recently
claimed that the organisation might build a future Geological Disposal
Facility operated solely by an army of robots. Due to become operational by
the late 2050s, but this is a moveable feast, the GDF will be the final
repository for Britain’s high-level legacy and future radioactive waste.
Three Areas of Focus in West Cumbria are currently being examined by
Nuclear Waste Services as prospective locations for an approximately 1km2
surface facility to receive waste shipments prior to their being taken
below ground and out through tunnels to engineered vaults deep under the
Irish Sea bed.
