Nuclear power in the United Kingdom spent nuclear fuel was installed. The Nuclear Decommissioning Authority (NDA), formed in April 2005 under the Energy Act 2004, oversees and manages the decommissioning and clean-up of the UK's older Magnox power plants and the reprocessing facilities at Sellafield, which were transferred to its ownership from BNFL, and the former nuclear research and development facilities previously run by the UKAEA. In August 2005, the following sites were listed for decommissioning: Prior to the 2002 white paper "Managing the Nuclear Legacy", the cost of decommissioning these facilities had been estimated at around £42 billion.
