説明

Japan's nuclear disaster prevention system entered review regarding the 2011 Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant accident and the Nuclear Emergency Response Guideline was revised in 2015. One important task for enhancing the nuclear disaster prevention system is to improve residential evacuations. Evacuating residents during nuclear disasters has unique problems, such as radiation contamination by substances released into the atmosphere, in addition to the problems of natural disasters, such as transportation disruptions. The Nuclear Emergency Response Guideline released by the Nuclear Regulatory Authority mandate that municipalities prepare for “inspection to confirm whether radiation protection measures should be implemented for evacuees in case of nuclear disaster (Evacuation Exit Inspection: EEI).” The EEI was proposed after the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant accident, but few Japanese educators know its process and/or points. In addition, few reports point out the problems faced by local governments concerning evacuations. This report explains the criteria used to implement protections during nuclear facility emergencies and the content of the EEI. It also describes the Aomori Prefecture nuclear disaster prevention drill/residents evacuation drill exercise, in which the authors participated as lecturers in 2017.
