This report is to outline a 5-year plan of research and development (R&D) for performance assessment of potential effect of natural phenomena on a geological disposal of high-level radioactive waste in JAEA. In each research plan, objectives based on the necessity and the significance of the research plan are clarified in the section of "Objectives and the past progresses", with summarizing the progresses of H12: Project to establish the scientific and technical basis for HLW disposal in Japan (Second Progress Report), and H17: Development and management of the technical knowledge base for the geological disposal of HLW (H17 report). In addition, next five year plan is described in the section.
