Item Description
The 2011 Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant accident highlighted the need to re-evaluate the technical safety basis of geological disposal facilities, and recommendations were submitted in 2012 by the Atomic Energy Commission of Japan to ensure that the latest geoscientific knowledge is incorporated into the re-evaluation. The need for re-evaluation by experts was also indicated by the Radioactive Waste Working Group of the Nuclear Energy Subcommittee which was organized in 2013 under the guidance of the Electricity and Gas Industry Committee of the Advisory Committee for Natural Resources and Energy for the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (METI), to review the policy for the final disposal of HLW.
