Abstract:
The article is devoted to the comparative analyses of provisions of Vienna convention on civil liability for nuclear damage of 1963 and Protocol of 1997 to the convention on civil liability for nuclear damage. In particular: the provisions on nuclear damage, channeling of liability on operator of nuclear facility, principles of liability, limits liability, limitation of actions, jurisdictional division are considered. On this bases it was concluded that international legal regulation is on the way of raise of limits liability of operator of nuclear facility, applying special drawing rights of International Monetary Fund as calculation units. Legal regulation introduced by the Protocol of 1997 to the Vienna convention on civil liability for nuclear damage more responds to the victims interests taking into account the long-terms effects of a nuclear incident. The problems of the Russian Federation adherence to the Protocol of 1997 is considered

Abstract:
The successful winding up of the Indo–US civil nuclear cooperation agreement in 2008 had generated a lot of sanguinity of thriving nuclear trade and increased investment surge in India’s civil nuclear power sector. However, the differences over the Indian nuclear liability regime because of its non-conformity with the international liability regime have marred those expectations. In the stated background, the article in its first part traces the chronological development of the international nuclear liability regimes, and, in second part, the Indian liability law and its inconsistencies are dealt with emphasis on shifting tenor of India–US relations vis-à-vis the law.

Abstract:
The increasing responsiveness to the possibility of nuclear energy in meeting global demand for electricity is enormous; more than 8% comes from nuclear power plant. Several countries have utilised nuclear power reactors for their energy supplies. This demand is due to the rapid socio-economic developments. Hence, standards of living of such countries have been enhanced considerably. These can mainly be attributed to stable power generation and supply. The United Arab Emirates (UAE) in the Middle East, which comprises of seven fast developing emirates, is currently embarking on power generation through a peaceful nuclear energy programme. The country requires tremendous power supplies to meet their demands. The energy needs of the UAE have increased such that the traditional methods of power production do not satisfy the needs of the country. There seems to be an absence of clarity about the responsibilities of the government in terms of liability during incidents of misuse of the nuclear plants. The research therefore considers the determination of the efficacy of the country’s nuclear energy laws in dealing with potential liabilities arising from the energy programme. While determining civil and State liabilities in the UAE’s nuclear energy programme through the analysis of existing local and international laws regarding the programme, the research analyses aspects of liability and requirements for possessing nuclear energy for peaceful purposes through the analysis of the natures and impacts of past Chernobyl, Fukushima, Three Mile Island and Windscale nuclear disasters to identify potential liability issues and their perpetrators. Thus, the lessons of the past will help to shape the future of UAE developments in this area. An analysis of the natures and scopes of existing nuclear energy laws in the UAE and those of the international community is conducted to determine possible flaw(s) and opportunities for the review of liability concerns for relevant parties. The research evaluates the extent to which the new UAE nuclear law addresses potential liabilities and further makes recommendations towards the effective and safe use of nuclear energy by the UAE through compliance with international best practices.

Includes bibliographical references (leaves 51-53).
Since Enrico Fermi first discovered that neutrons could split atoms in 1934, peaceful and militaristic uses of nuclear energy have become prevalent in our society. Two case studies, Three Mile Island and the Nevada Test Site, allow for the examination of radiation injury liability in the context of existing radiation compensation systems. The Price-Anderson Nuclear Industries Indemnity Act, which governs civilian nuclear use, and the Radiation Exposure Compensation Act, which governs compensation for military nuclear weapons tests, are compared to determine the most efficient compensation system. Issues such as determining compensable diseases, establishing rigid criteria, and a heavy burden of proof define the efficiency of each system. A compensation system combining elements of the existing civilian and military compensation systems is proposed, which can be applied to future nuclear ventures such as the Yucca Mountain Repository.

This paper analyzes the actual system of civil liability for nuclear damage in Brazil, considering the Convention on Early Notification of a Nuclear Accident, the Vienna Convention on civil liability for nuclear damage and the Law 6.453/1977 as well as other sources of legislation applicable to the subject. It starts with the assumption that the system of civil liability for nuclear damage in force in Brazil needs to be revised because it is a system of more than fifty years and has not absorbed the changes consubstantial legal science in this period, especially with regard to human rights and raising the principle of human dignity as the foundation of the Federative Republic of Brazil. In this sense the system in various situations in question admits the damage without a corresponding compensation, or that operates partially. Consider It will also advance the exploration of possibly irreversible nuclear energy extension of the Brazilian energy in the coming decades, while Brazil confirms an international trend of increased use of nuclear energy with peaceful purposes of obtaining electricity, considered the driving force of the current system of consumption and an indispensable means of social and economic development of any nation in the world. That in order to demonstrate the system of civil liability for nuclear damage is compatible with the current growth of the use of nuclear energy, since this is undisputed source of benefits, but also represents a risk to society with regard to the occurrence of nuclear accidents. The methodology used to demonstrate this hypothesis was the analysis of international conventions to which Brazil is a signatory in the field of nuclear energy, the Brazilian legislation, as well as various documents and data relevant to the topic, as well as references.
Este trabalho analisa o sistema de responsabilização civil por danos nucleares vigente no Brasil, considerando a convenção sobre pronta notificação de acidente nuclear, a convenção de Viena sobre responsabilidade civil sobre por danos nucleares e a Lei Federal n. 6.453/1977, bem como outras fontes legislativas aplicáveis ao tema. Parte-se da hipótese que o sistema de responsabilidade civil por danos nucleares vigente no Brasil precisa ser revisto por se tratar de um sistema de mais de cinquenta anos e que não absorveu mudanças consubstanciais da ciência jurídica nesse período, sobretudo, no que se refere aos direito humanos e à elevação do princípio da dignidade da pessoa humana como fundamento da República Federativa do Brasil. Nesse sentido o sistema em questão em várias situações admite o dano sem a correspondente indenização, ou que esta se opere de forma parcial. Considerar-se-á também o avanço possivelmente irreversível da exploração da energia nuclear para fins de extensão da matriz energética brasileira, nas próximas décadas, sendo que o Brasil confirma uma tendência internacional do aumento do uso de energia nuclear com a finalidade pacífica de obtenção de energia elétrica, considerada a força motriz do atual sistema de consumo e meio imprescindível para o desenvolvimento social e econômico de qualquer nação do mundo. Isso com a finalidade de se evidenciar se o sistema de responsabilização civil por danos nucleares vigente é compatível com o crescimento da exploração da energia nuclear, vez que esta é inconteste fonte de benefícios, mas representa também um risco à sociedade no que se refere à ocorrência de acidentes nucleares. A metodologia utilizada para demonstrar esta hipótese foi a análise das convenções internacionais das quais o Brasil é signatário no campo da energia nuclear, a legislação brasileira em vigor, bem como vários documentos e dados pertinentes ao tema, bem como referências bibliográficas.

Abstract:
The study is concerned with the topic of nuclear liability. One might think this is a topic of the last century, but it is not. In the last few years the demand and development of nuclear power plants were enhanced due to several reasons. Especially in South Africa, the further development of nuclear power plants is planned by the government. However, nuclear energy is an ultra-hazardous energy resource which could cause huge damage to people, their property and the environment. Therefore, a comprehensive legal framework for cases of nuclear damage is needed to balance the interests of victims and the nuclear industry. A legal framework regulating the case of nuclear damage can be found in international law, as well as in most domestic legal systems of countries producing nuclear energy. Due to the fact that South Africa wants to develop its nuclear energy programme, it is interesting to examine its nuclear liability provisions closer. The study assesses the South African nuclear liability regime by comparing it with the international legal framework for nuclear liability and the German nuclear liability regime. Therefore, the study will firstly outline principles of nuclear liability, secondly analyse the most important international conventions and finally examine the crucial nuclear liability provisions in the domestic legal systems of Germany and South Africa.

Įvykus branduolinei katastrofai, kaip pavyzdžiui visai neseniai Japoniją sudrebinus itin stipriam žemės drebėjimui bei po to sekusiai aukštai cunamio bangai, buvo padaryta neįtikėtinai didelė žala gamtai ir aplinkai dėl stichijos nelaimių ryšiui su branduoline tarša. Didelė dalis radioaktyviųjų medžiagų pateko į jūrinę gamtos aplinką bei pasklido plačiu spektru į vandenynus. Ši nelaimė paskatino peržiūrėti ir gilintis į branduolinės taršos teisės aktus, taip pat juos tobulinti bei modifikuoti.

Recently, the number of cases is rising because of the various hazardous materials contamination around the nature. Most often this occurs because of unexpected natural disasters. For example, due to a strong earthquake that triggered the tsunami, a huge disaster in Japan occurred (Fukushima nuclear power plant case). At that time, a large part of radioactive nuclear materials spread in the open ocean and this breakthrough that is widespread even now still cannot be stopped. It applies not only to the pollution of the ocean, but to all other different countries within outside territorial waters. The question is: Are the affected State has the right to compensation in this case? Then who should pay for damages? What is the legal regulation for such situations? International environmental law is mainly expressed in treaties and other international legal instruments, but it cannot be applied for the marine pollution with nuclear materials because there is no legal regulation in this field. Hereinafter, the problem of deficiency of legal regulation will be examined specifically in the area of oceans, sea borders, and territorial waters pollution by radioactive materials. And finally, there will be explored the issues to whether there is an obligation for a legal entity to compensate the damage to another state when according to the force majeure circumstances the radioactive nuclear materials spread and contaminate other state's outside territorial waters and ocean?

Cette thèse traite de la relation entre le droit nucléaire et le droit de la santé. Le droit de la santé y est entendu dans son acception large, en tant que discipline juridique régissant la santé environnementale, soit la santé de l'homme dans son environnement naturel et de travail. Le droit nucléaire et le droit de la santé partageant le même objectif de protection de la santé de l'homme dans son environnement, le premier est nécessairement influencé par le second. La démonstration s'attache en particulier à caractériser cette relation évidente du droit nucléaire et du droit de la santé en matière de protection comme de responsabilité sanitaires liées aux risques nucléaires. De ce point de vue, elle oppose à la symbiose de ces deux droits en matière de protection sanitaire contre les risques nucléaires leur scission en matière de responsabilité sanitaire. La relation entre le droit nucléaire et le droit de la santé est en effet caractérisée par une symbiose parfaite en matière de protection sanitaire contre le risque nucléaire, quelle qu'en soit l'origine ; les différentes composantes du droit nucléaire, cristallisées autour du noyau dur de la radioprotection, se complétant afin de protéger la santé environnementale. Or, cette symbiose cède le pas à une véritable scission en matière de responsabilité sanitaire consécutive aux risques nucléaires ; cette dernière étant marquée par des régimes pluriels tributaires de l'origine médicale, professionnelle, civile ou bien encore militaire du risque nucléaire. Le dommage sanitaire radiologique est en effet appréhendé tantôt communément par le droit de la santé, tantôt spécialement par le droit nucléaire
This PhD thesis deals with the relationship between nuclear law and health law. Health law is understood in its wide sense, as a legal discipline governing environmental health, i.e. the health of man in his natural and work environment. Nuclear law and health law sharing the same objective of protecting the health of man in his environment, the former is necessarily influenced by the latter. My demonstration focuses in particular on how to characterize this obvious relationship between nuclear law and health law regarding health protection as well as liability for nuclear risks. From this point of view, it opposes the symbiosis of these two fields of the law with regard to health protection against nuclear risks and their split with regard to health liability. The relationship between nuclear law and health law is indeed characterized by a perfect symbiosis regarding health protection against nuclear risk, whichever its origin; the various components of nuclear law, crystallized around the core of radiation protection, complementing one another in order to protect environmental health. However, this symbiosis gives way to a real split regarding health liability for nuclear risks; this one being marked by plural regimes which depend on the professional, medical, civil or military origin of the nuclear risk. The radiological health damage is indeed apprehended sometimes commonly by health law, sometimes specially by nuclear law

Abstract:
Les déchets radioactifs sont apparus concomitamment à la découverte de la radioactivité artificielle et ont vu leur production s’accroitre significativement avec le développement de l’industrie nucléaire civile dans les années 1960. Toutefois, ce n’est que très récemment que le droit s’est saisi de l’épineuse question de leur gestion au travers de textes qui y sont consacrés. De la même manière que les déchets radioactifs sont gérés séparément selon leur activité et leur période radioactive, le cadre juridique relatif à la gestion des déchets radioactifs s’est naturellement dirigé vers une dichotomie temporelle. L’on distingue alors deux principaux corpus de normes, le premier encadre les déchets radioactifs dont les modes de gestion permettent de garantir immédiatement la sûreté des personnes et de l’environnement tandis que le second traite des déchets radioactifs pour lesquels la sûreté doit être garantie sur du long terme, dans la mesure où il n’existe pas à ce jour de solution de gestion définitive pour ces déchets. Ce travail a pour ambition de mettre en évidence en quoi les dispositions propres à chacun des deux corpus participent à la sûreté des personnes et de l’environnement et d’exposer les potentielles difficultés persistantes
Radioactive waste appeared simultaneously with the discovery of artificial radioactivity and saw their output is significantly increased with the development of the civil nuclear industry in the 1960s. Notwithstanding, it is only very recently that’s law has seized the difficult issue of their management through texts devoted to it.In the same way that radioactive waste is managed separately according to their activity and half-life, the legal framework for the management of radioactive waste has naturally led to a temporal dichotomy. Then we distinguish two main corpus of standards. The first-one supervises the radioactive waste whose management modes to immediately ensure the safety of people and the environment while the second-one deals with radioactive waste for which security must be guaranteed on long term, insofar as it does not exist to date definitive management solution for waste.This work aims to show how the specific provisions of each of the two bodies involved in the safety of people and the environment and expose potential persistent difficulties

Strict liability, the one that doesn t need a negligent act to impose the damage doer the obligation to pay the victim for the damages caused, is getting more and more important in the judiciary system, since the end of he 19th century. Especially after the Civil Code of 2002, the analysis of this kind of torts became even more relevant for the Brazilian Law system because of the several cases in which it is applied, including especially the adoption of this system as a general clause statement. Because of this necessity, the present work intends to study the strict liability, especially concerning its axiological foundations, that for long are beyond the original idea of risk, and some microsystems where this kind of liability is applied. To accomplish this result, the paper was divided in two parts: the first one is used to study the fundaments of torts, since the private vengeance until the strict liability as we know nowadays; the second part is about some of the Microsystems that are not based on a negligent act to impose the damage doer the obligation to pay the victim for the damages caused in the Brazilian legal system. The study is done, as much as possible, in a comparative form with other foreign legislation. Some of them influenced the Brazilian legislator on the text of the 2002 Civil Code, but others just have a similar regulation on the matter, even if there is not any influence on Brazilian Civil Code. These comparative studies are done, as much as possible, based on foreign books that study local statutes, so we tried to avoid an interpretation of foreign legislation out of the country s cultural and social context
A responsabilidade civil objetiva, aquela que prescinde da culpa para sua análise e conseqüente imputação de obrigação de indenizar ao causador do dano, vem ganhando cada vez mais espaço no mundo jurídico, desde o final do século XIX. Especialmente com o advento do Código Civil de 2002, a análise desta espécie de responsabilidade passou a ser ainda mais relevante para o Direito brasileiro, em razão das inúmeras previsões deste tipo de responsabilização neste corpo legislativo, inclusive e especialmente com a adoção deste sistema por meio de uma cláusula geral. Em razão desta necessidade, o presente trabalho tem por objetivo analisar a responsabilidade civil objetiva, especialmente no tocante aos seus fundamentos axiológicos, que ultrapassam a originária hipótese de risco, e alguns microssistemas jurídicos em que tal espécie de responsabilidade é aplicada. Para tanto o trabalho foi dividido em duas partes: a primeira cuida da análise dos fundamentos da responsabilidade civil, desde a vingança privada até a responsabilidade objetiva dos tempos atuais; a segunda parte diz respeito especificamente a alguns microssistemas jurídicos que dispensam a culpa para a imputação civil dos danos no ordenamento jurídico brasileiro. A análise, sempre que possível, é feita de forma comparativa com outros ordenamentos jurídicos que influenciaram o legislador de 2002, ou apenas possuem regramento parecido, mesmo que não haja uma relação de influência na legislação brasileira. Tais análises comparadas são feitas, sempre que possível, com base em doutrinas estrangeiras que analisam os textos legais dos respectivos países, de forma a se evitar interpretação do texto legal estrangeiro fora do contexto cultural e social daquele país

Abstract:
L’énergie nucléaire a toujours suscité la polémique. Alors que certains considèrent qu’une énergie nucléaire « sûre » pourrait contribuer à assurer à la fois une meilleure sécurité des approvisionnements énergétiques et une réduction des émissions mondiales de gaz à effet de serre, d’autres lui reprochent plusieurs types de risques et particulièrement les accidents nucléaires, la gestion des déchets nucléaires, la non-prolifération et les attaques terroristes ou même militaires contre les installations nucléaires civiles. En réalité, le retour d’expérience des accidents nucléaires les plus catastrophique de l’histoire, Three Mile Island (États-Unis) en 1979, Tchernobyl (ancienne URSS) en 1986 et Fukushima Daiichi (Japon) en 2011, a montré que des accidents nucléaires graves peuvent avoir des effets divers d’une portée potentiellement considérable, (très souvent transfrontières), à la fois pour les personnes, les biens et pour l’environnement. L’accident de Fukushima a confirmé une fois de plus la nécessité d’améliorer les règles existantes du droit international de l’énergie nucléaire, de manière à mettre en place un régime mondial de responsabilité civile du fait nucléaire, répondant aux préoccupations de tous les États qui pourraient être touchés par ce type d’accident. Le défit aujourd’hui est, donc, degarantir une réparation efficace, équitable et harmonisée des différents types de dommages issus d’un accident survenant dans une installation nucléaire
Nuclear energy always caused the polemic. Whereas some consider that a “sure” nuclear energy could contribute to ensure at the same time a better safety of the energy supplies and a reduction of the greenhouses gas emissions, others reproach its several types of risks, particularly, the nuclear accidents, the nuclear waste control, the non-proliferation and the terrorist attacks or even armed against civil nuclear installations. Actually, return of the experience of the most catastrophic nuclear accidents in history (Three Mile Island (the United States) in 1979, Tchernobyl (former USSR) in 1986 and FukushimaDaiichi (Japan) in 2011), showed that serious nuclear accidents can have a variety of potentially far-reaching effects (very often transboundary) for people, property and the environment. The Fukushima accident confirmed once again the need to improve the existing rules of international nuclear energy law to put in place a global nuclear liability regime that addresses all of the states that may be affected by a nuclear accident. Today’s challenge is, therefore, to guarantee an efficient, fair and harmonized repair of the different types of damage resulting from an accident occurring in a nuclear installation

Abstract:
This paper presents the initial provisions, materials, results, current status and next tasks of the study dedicated to the issues of legal and institutional support of transportable nuclear power plants. This study is performed in the framework of the IAEA International Project on Innovative Nuclear Reactors and Fuel Cycles INPRO. Transportable nuclear power plants (TNPPs) are either small nuclear power plants (SNPPs) with their lifecycle implemented on a single transportable platform, or SNPPs assembled of transportable factory-made modules. Advantages of SNPPs and TNPPs are: • Enhanced safety and reliability; • Design simplicity, • Shorter construction period; • Industrial serial production; • Smaller capital costs and shorter investment cycle compared with large NPP; • Possibility of autonomous operation; • Suitability for non-electric application and others. There is an objective evidence of growing interest in developing a nuclear energy system (NES) based on SNPPs including TNPPs. Underlying assumptions of the Russian study: • The User of TNPP services is interested in receiving energy only, does not claim ownership of nuclear technologies, materials and TNPP itself, and this incurs minimal liability for nuclear energy use; INPRO defines this TNPP lifecycle option as “Maximum outsourcing”; • All operations involving nuclear fuel are performed either at the TNPP manufacturer plant, or at a regional TNPP service center within the Holder’s liability zone; • TNPP sitting requires no onsite operations except assembling. Expert reviews have been performed to confirm TNPP lifecycle compliance with the nuclear legislation in fields such as: safety; non-proliferation; nuclear materials’ monitoring, accounting and control; physical protection; and civil liability for nuclear damage; transport operations. It was confirmed that: • In traditional approaches, the existing legal and institutional framework is sufficient for implementing TNPP lifecycle; to achieve the highest efficiency and safety of TNPPs it is necessary to develop TNPPs’ designs, their legal and institutional support; • The following issues are of immediate interest for further studies: combination of inherent safety features and passive safety systems in TNPPs; TNPP lifecycle economy; lifecycle concept without onsite refueling; new approaches to indemnification for nuclear damage; new approaches to physical protection; nuclear liability of TNPP User; remote nuclear materials monitoring, and control and TNPP’ operating; serial industrial fabrication; licensing and certification; public-private partnership; international personnel training system; international cooperation in TNPP fabrication and servicing; role of the IAEA in developing TNPP-based NES. • TNPP/SNPP-based nuclear energy system including all kinds of respective legal, institutional and infrastructural support should become the subject of further studies.

Abstract:
In the frame of economic analysis of nuclear power (NP) with SMRs in their total life cycle the expert analysis of the problems associated with the civil liability for nuclear damage from SMRs on the example of transportable nuclear power units (TNUs) was performed. Purpose of the analysis is as follows: • Assessment of NP’ safety and economy changes in its development based on TNUs with KLT-40S and partly with RITM-200M reactor units. • Work out of recommendations on this development’ direction in terms of the insurance approach justification and amount of compensation for nuclear damage. The following aspects were considered in the analysis: 1. National and international approaches and practice of nuclear insurance. 2. Specific features of TNUs and differences from large NPPs basing on example of the design of floating power unit FPU “Academician Lomonosov” with KLT-40S reactors. 3. Assessment of severe accident consequences during TNU’ life cycle. 4. Analysis of insurances’ approaches and assessment of possible insurance costs.

Abstract:
On November 1st 2008, a new ordinance came into force in Sweden. It extends the implementation of nuclear liability to all nuclear facilities and companies, regardless of size. The Government has authorized the Swedish Radiation Safety Authority (SSM) to issue further regulation as warranted and appropriate, and commissioned the same Authority to oversee the implementation. Consequently, SSM is presently conducting research in order to establish a basis for the implementation of the ordinance to smaller facilities and enterprises. The goal is to enable finance to be assured in an efficient manner so that any burden on the companies is as small as possible. Thus, “functional requirements” are identified, and used as a basis for various investigations. The aspects include technical and cost calculation prerequisites, as well as various domains of law: the environmental code, radiation and nuclear safety, financial reporting, and criminal law. It is found that the basis for the differentiation among the facility operators and owners should be the cost and the associated uncertainty. Thus, a cost calculation will have to be carried out by all. It should be based on available standards and guidance documents. It is found that this is a requirement that already exists elsewhere in the legislation, and thus no additional burden is imposed on the companies. It is found that segregated funds is the preferred option for long-term liabilities. Securities are suitable for short-term liabilities provided that the economy of the company in question is sound. Securities might also be used for long-term liabilities to cover uncertainty. It is proposed that a de minimis limit of at least kSEK 25 (about k€ 2, 4 and k$ 3, 4) is used. An important reason for this is that lower limits might be incompatible with the rules for financial reporting. It is also proposed that securities might be used also for long-term commitments if the total environmental liability does not exceed 1,00 MSEK (about k€ 96 and k$ 135). It is found that the “general advice” that must be used by smaller companies lacks proper instructions on how to account for environmental liability whilst at the same time it prohibits the use of e g the international reporting standards IFRS/IAS. It is also found that the “general advice” prohibits distribution of costs for research and development over time. This might be incompatible with a fund system where considerable research may be necessary at the early stages of the work and often many years before the actual decommissioning is to take place. The rules in the penal code require that an annual report presents an “essentially correct financial situation”. One of the interpretations to this statement is that a deviance of at most 30% might be tolerated. Although previous work has indicated that the error in cost estimates need not be higher than about 15%, even for research facilities, concealed cost raisers may from time to time lead to much larger errors, even when best practices are being used. It is therefore essential that decommissioning planning and cost predictions are made in accordance with state of the art, and that the estimating methods as well as the results are properly documented.

Abstract:
The safe management of a country’s radioactive substances in both the short and the long term implies a cost to its present society and necessitates financial resources to cover these costs. Once they are needed, these financial resources may prove to be insufficient or even completely lacking, leading to a nuclear liability. By virtue of article 9 of the Belgian law of 12th December 1997, the Belgian Government wishes to avoid the occurrence of such nuclear liabilities. This law charges ONDRAF/NIRAS, the Belgian Agency for Radioactive Waste and Enriched Fissile Materials with the mission to draw up a register of the localisation and the state of all nuclear sites and all sites containing radioactive substances, to estimate the costs of their decommissioning and remediation, to evaluate the existence and adequacy of the provisions for financing these future or current operations and to update the resulting inventory of nuclear liabilities on a five-yearly basis. This paper outlines the methodology put in place by ONDRAF/NIRAS to accomplish this assignment and highlights some of the results of this third inventory. It then focuses on the main recommendations ONDRAF/NIRAS made to the Belgian Government on the field of avoiding potential nuclear liabilities.

Abstract:
Transportation and traffic managers have had to deal with increased liability issues regarding containing vehicles during impact with protective barriers. Today’s security environment has a heightened need for means of stopping vehicles in controlled manner for security and liability purposes. Using strain energy absorption via annealed steel cables has proven to be a commercial success. Gated vehicle barrier applications using this mechanism range from safely stopping runaway vehicles at railroad crossing in compliance with National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Report 350 to stopping a potential attacker at an industrial plant in compliance with Nuclear Regulation (NUREG) CR-6190. This paper will examine different applications of this mechanism for controlling vehicle impact, analyze the nonlinear interactions at work, and develop operating parameters for using annealed steel wire rope for these applications.

Full text
Abstract:
In this paper we argue that an underground nuclear park (UNP) could potentially lead to lower capital and operating cost for the reactors installed in the UNP compared to the traditional approach, which would be to site the reactors at the earth’s surface at distributed locations. The UNP approach could also lead to lower waste management cost. A secondary benefit would be the increased margins of safety and security that would be realized simply as a consequence of siting the reactors underground. Lowered capital and operating cost for a UNP relative to traditional reactor siting is possible through the aggregate effect of the elimination of containment structures, in-place decommissioning, reduced physical security costs, reduced weather-related costs, reduced cost of liability insurance and reduced unit-cost for the nth reactor made possible through the continuous construction of multiple reactors at the same underground location. Other cost reductions might be possible through the transfer of the capital cost for part of the underground construction from the reactor owners to the owners of the UNP. Lower waste management cost is possible by siting the UNP at a location where there are geological and hydrological conditions suitable for hosting both the reactors and the repository for the waste from those reactors. After adequate storage and cooling, and assuming direct disposal, this would enable the spent fuel from the reactors to be transported directly to the repository and remain entirely underground during the transport process. Community concerns and transportation costs would be significantly reduced relative to current situations where the reactors are separated from the repository by long distances and populated areas. The concept for a UNP in bedded salt is used to develop a rough order of magnitude cost estimate for excavation of the reactor array portion of a UNP. Excavation costs appear to be only a small fraction of the overall power plant costs for an UNP in salt. Many engineering, safety, environmental, regulatory and cost-benefit and technical issues related to the UNP concept need to be evaluated.

Abstract:
Every day thousands of shipments of radioactive materials are transported on international and national routes. These consignments, which are carried by road, rail, sea, air and inland waterway, can range from smoke detectors and cobalt sources for medical uses to reprocessed fuel for use in electricity generation. The transport of radioactive materials worldwide is governed by stringent regulatory regime, which includes standards, codes and regulations that have been continuously revised and updated over the past four decades. The safety measures have been developed to protect the general public, transport workers, emergency response teams and the environment against the risks posed by the cargoes. These risks include the radioactivity itself and other chemical risks that the cargoes may pose, such as toxicity or corrosivity. In addition to the safety regulations, the regulatory regime addresses other, related issues such as physical protection and liability. It was recognized that these standards should provide a uniform, global regime to ensure that all parties apply the same provisions. Since 1961, the UN (United Nations) has published and periodically reviewed and updated the regulations for the safe transport of radioactive material. These regulations are used today by more than 60 countries as the basic for their national regulations. In addition, the main international modal organizations responsible for the safe transport of dangerous goods by road, rail, sea, air and inland waterways have incorporated the relevant parts of the UN regulations into their own instruments. This paper will discuss and outline the principal regulations that apply to the transport of radioactive materials such as the UN regulations for the safe transport of radioactive materials, The UN regime governing the international transport of dangerous goods, the principal modal regulations governing the transport of dangerous goods and achievement of a more harmonized regime. and the international organizations responsible for their development and implementation.

Abstract:
Sweden was one of the first six countries to build and operate a nuclear power reactor. Thus, there exists a corresponding legacy in terms of liabilities for decommissioning and waste management of the historic facilities. Compliance with the Polluter Pays Principle (PPP) and its corollary on equity between generations implies that plans for decommissioning must be made and funds set aside for its execution. The need for precision in the cost estimates often governs the timing of the technical planning. Cost estimates are treacherous since cost raisers may be identified and evaluated only after considerable efforts have been made. Further complications and challenges arise as a result of changes that take place between construction and decommissioning of facilities in terms of the entities involved as owners, operators, license holders, Authorities and financiers. From this perspective, the present paper summarizes the general legislation as well as the legislation that applies particularly to nuclear activities. It also summarizes the relation between the nuclear decommissioning fund system and financial reporting. Three examples are provided that wholly or partially fall under the Studsvik act (that specifically covers old facilities): • The A˚gesta nuclear power plant. • The Ranstad uranium mining and beneficiation facility. • The Neutron Research Laboratory at Studsvik. The findings include the following: • It is important that the legislation be clear as to what is included and not. • The rationale for the legislation should also be clear and well communicated. • Old agreements can be significant for the assessment of liabilities, even in cases where a party may no longer exist. • Support for assessment of when activities are continuing or not (which may have a strong significance for the liability) can be found in court cases on chemically contaminated soil. • Analysis of facilities and the work carried out at different times can be very helpful in determining whether or not a facility is auxiliary. • In order to be essentially correct, annual reporting must be coherent with the declarations of the funding system and in compliance with the IAR/IFRS standards. • Keeping of searchable records is essential. • Research is essential, not only to provide bases for high quality decisions, but also to promote consensus based on agreement on factual circumstances.
