Greenhouse is used in order to prevent diffusion of radioactive materials on the maintenance of machineries and decomposition of the analytical equipment such as glove box in Tokai Reprocessing Plant (TRP). The specifications of the greenhouse change depending on a risk of the radiation exposure, operation and environment. Design and application of original greenhouses in the analytical laboratory of TRP is summarized.

Industry development activities on applied laser research held at Fukui branch of Japan Atomic Energy Agency are reported. Industry development is inevitable in long-term vision and strategy for developing maintenance technology and establishing decommissioning technology. Fukui branch of JAEA has organized public seminar offering businesses to promote these activities and technology exchange for years. Here some examples offered in the current seminar are introduced concerning with laser technology. Finally, our goal and important point of view are discussed.

One of important mission of nuclear power plants (NPP) at R&D stage is to develop maintenance program for commercial reactors step by step securing safety. Basic principles of maintenance management for NPP at R&D stage were proposed. In this paper, applications for maintenance program on piping support of prototype sodium cooled fast breeder reactor Monju are studied on the basis of the proposed basic principles of maintenance management for NPP at R&D stage.

In a previous paper, the authors discussed maintenance management suitable to R&D-level nuclear power plants, and made proposals. One of key proposals was to enhance knowledge on potential degradation mechanisms specific to a new reactor type by accumulating operational experience. It was noted that validation of R&D knowledge in actual plant conditions is important. In this study, a method for identifying degradation mechanisms to be validated by the PIRT (Phenomena Identification and Ranking Table) process is proposed to develop effective maintenance plans of R&D-level nuclear power plants based on the graded approach. Furthermore, the applicability of the proposed method is illustrated by an example of application to MONJU that is an R&D-level nuclear power plant of sodium-cooled fast reactors.

A maintenance management suitable to nuclear power plants (NPP) at R&D stage was discussed. Objectives of maintenance management of NPP at R&D stage were first clarified. Next, applicability of codes for maintenance management of commercial NPP to NPP at R&D stage was discussed. Then, requirements and consideration for maintenance management of NPP at R&D stage was proposed. In this paper, maintenance program for sodium valves are investigated.

The risk is used for an index to judge. The risk to be considered varies according to the purpose of the judgment. The analysis of the risk needs the knowledge of the nuclear energy system and society.

In considering nuclear safety, it is an important task to clarify the relationship with "peace of mind" that is the heart of people. What is the state that scientific safety is something that people feel safe? We considered the relationship between quantified risk and safety, and ways to acquire peace of mind. We analyzed the thresholds of safety risks as a social common, showed a safe condition, and showed the importance of forming a consensus to obtain peace of mind.

In society, understanding of risk is various. We will show how to understand risk and describe how to face risks in the society. Individual risks are accepted by individuals, but it is necessary for society to construct a structure in society that allows risks to be tolerated by society. For that purpose, we also describe what social risk is and how society and individuals face social risks and how to choose risks to accept. We consider not only the concept of nuclear risk but also how nuclear risk should be accepted from the viewpoint of disaster prevention for the public.

After Fukushima Daiichi nuclear accident, it becomes more important risk communication with the public. In discussions with the public in nuclear safety, communication and discussions on risks that not only nuclear risks also social risks are important. Differences in viewpoints, understanding, and thought about risks become communication difficult. We need to discuss risks fairly, appropriately with the public and reduce total social risks.

A considering nuclear safety, it is an important task to clarify the relationship with "peace of mind" that is the heart of people. In this paper, a fundamental methodology of risk assessment for nuclear safety is introduced based on a probabilistic risk assessment (PRA) method. Furthermore, an application of the methodology for an external event is also discussed.

In order to grasp efficiency of risk information, we tried to apply an insight of PRA to considering of severe accidents; TMI, Chernobyl, and Fukushima Dai-ichi. Based on this analysis, three points are disclosed. At first, PRA can product adequate countermeasures for low-likelihood events; huge earthquake or Tsunami. Next, PRA can prove weak points in design or operation reasonably. Third point is safety culture. PRA and safety culture are seemed to be connected deeply. These analyses revealed PRA is one of the most efficient and systematic risk analysis methods to prevent/mitigate severe accidents.

Target of PRA is not calculating PRA to get CDF/CFF, but providing significant and useful information from PRA results for risk-informed activities. Lot of risk applications have been implemented these about 20 years in US. After Fukushima Dai-ichi accidents, Japanese Nuclear Regulation Authority provided new regulatory requirements about external events and beyond design events. And Risk Application faces full-scale implementation. In this report, several methods of risk application are showed with adequate risk indexes. Two examples of risk application, risk-informed shutdown management and RI-ISI, are provided. The explanation about Risk Informed Decision-Making Process is made.
