JAEA has started to perform dose rate monitoring using a car-borne survey system KURAMA to rapidly produce the dose rate mappings of the deposited radionuclides in the environment after the Fukushima Dai-ichi Nuclear Power Plant accident. KURAMA is a car-borne survey system developed by Kyoto University to perform dose rate monitoring in a wide area in detail with rapidity. By improving KURAMA with continuous dose rate monitoring, the 2nd generation of KURAMA (KURAMA-II) succeeded in downsizing, durability and automated transmission of data so that enable detailed dose rate mapping in wide area in shorter period of time. This paper reports the radiation characteristics and the simulation analysis of KURAMA-II on the special issue of Hoshasen, the journal of Ionization Radiation Division in the Japan society of applied physics.

A variety of radioactive wastes have been generated in decommissioning of Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station. It is necessary to evaluate feasibility of conditioning methods to these wastes, because the majority of such wastes have not been solidified in Japan. The authors investigated an approach for screening of conditioning methods for the Fukushima wastes on the basis of the findings of the existing methods and results of fundamental solidification tests using synthetic Fukushima wastes. Here five solidification methods were selected, and also 13 wastes with different chemical composition are solidified, and characteristics of the solidified form are studied. A screening flow was proposed, and evaluation criteria on each step in the flow was set up. In this presentation a trial result was opened for a waste and improvements of the screening flow found in the trial evaluation was described.

The Great East Japan Earthquake occurred on 11th March 2011. The Tsunami attacked the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station of Tokyo Electric Power Co. As a result, electric power was lost, furthermore electronic power generators were broken. After failing to restore power, there was an explosion and a large amount of radionuclides were released to the atmosphere. Japan Atomic Energy Agency (JAEA) monitored air dose rates, radionuclides in the air and environmental samples. At that time, there were many problems in the environmental radiation monitoring. The dose was beyond the range of the air dose monitor in monitoring car. The Ge detector's iron and lead shields were contaminated by the air. No standard source as "the phantom" could be obtained for children under 4. The JAEA solved these problems by developing new monitoring techniques. In this presentation, these improvements are shown and proposed as a new generation environmental radiation monitoring technique.
