In the second medium term (2010-2015) plans of JAEA, effective and reasonable medium and long term plan for decommissioning of nuclear facility and treatment and disposal of low level radioactive waste in JAEA, based on the premise of safety assurance, is to be formulated by the end of March, 2012. This medium and long term plan is the plan targeting the period over next ten years based on the prospect of the long term waste management from waste generation to waste disposal, and is mainly referred to decommissioning, clearance, waste treatment, waste storage and R&D works. JAEA will be carried out practical work for treatment and disposal of the radioactive waste based on this plan, and also the updating of this plan will be made flexibly according to consideration situation of new framework for nuclear energy policy by the Atomic Energy Commission, technology advance and progress situation of laws and regulations.

The International Fusion Materials Irradiation Facility (IFMIF) project is an international joint facility plan for developing, examining, and evaluating various kinds of candidate materials to realize a nuclear fusion reactor, by means of intense neutron irradiation simulating the fusion neutron environment. In the past, Conceptual Design Activities, Conceptual Design Evaluation activities, and Key Element technology verification Phase (KEP) were carried out. KEP activities in Japan have been organized under cooperation between JAERI and Natural Science Research Organization - National Institute for Fusion Science (NIFS) with the universities. Now, the framework of implementation of the Engineering Validation and Engineering Design Activities (EVEDA) planned as the activity in the next stage is under discussion. In EVEDA planned as the next activity an international cooperative organization strengthened much more is assumed. JAERI decided that it was needed to examine the necessity and the validity of the participation in EVEDA accompanied with an evaluation of the technical results of KEP activity and technical validity of the future plan, in advance of the decision for the participation. And JAERI requested to assemble a specialist group of the related fields in and out of the JAERI, and to perform "Peer Review of IFMIF Project and Relevant Programs".
