研究炉に係る国際会議RRFMにおいて、東日本大震災後の復旧したJRR-3の現状に加えて、福島第一原子力発電所事故を受けての新たな規制要求に対してJRR-3が適合していることを示す規制側への申請内容について報告する。

In response to the accident at Fukushima Daiichi NPS, the new safety standards for research and test reactor facilities came into force on December 18, 2013. The evaluation of natural disasters and prevention of spread of accidents beyond design basis mainly were enhanced in the standards. We have completed the necessary checks and assessments, and submitted an application for reviewing if JRR-3 complies with the new standards to the Nuclear Regulation Authority on September 26, 2014.
