ACROSS has been developed to acquire the detailed information on the tectonically active zone. The technology developed here, the transmission and reception technique, the data analysis and the interpretation technique of the ACROSS signal for example, is able to use in seismology but also in other fields. We considered the ACROSS technology may apply to the engineering technology of the MIU project, for example, to the geological environment monitoring around the shafts and the strength assessment of the shaft concrete lining. Its examination was made in the three years period from fiscal year 2007 to 2009. However, it was concluded that we required another two years of observation to evaluate the applicability of the ACROSS as a technology to monitor the geological environment around the shafts and research galleries. In this report, we describe the evaluation result of the ACROSS based on the data observed by the end of 2011.

Japan Atomic Energy Agency (JAEA) consulted the "Evaluation Committee of Research Activities for Advanced Science Research" for interim assessment of "Advanced Science Research", in accordance with "General Guideline for the Evaluation of Government Research and Development (R&D) Activities" by Cabinet Office, Government of Japan, and "Regulation on Conduct for Evaluation of R&D Activities" by JAEA. In response to the JAEA's request, the Committee assessed the research programs and activities of the Advanced Science Research Center (ASRC) for the period of two years from April 2010. The Committee evaluated the management and the research programs of the ASRC based on the explanatory documents prepared by the ASRC and the oral presentations with questions-and-answers by the Director and the research group leaders. This report summarizes the result of the assessment by the Committee with the Committee report attached from page 7.
