Activity report published
The current activity report of the Federal Nuclear Safety Commission is available.
The Swiss Federal Nuclear Safety Commission (KNS) has its Activity report 2014 published. In addition to tasks related to the disposal of radioactive waste, the NSC dealt with reviews in the field of emergency preparedness, which had been decided by the Federal Council in 2012.
In 2012, the Federal Council had decided on various measures in the field of emergency protection on the recommendation of the "Interdepartmental Working Group for the Review of Emergency Protection Measures in the Event of Extreme Events in Switzerland" (IDA NOMEX). In this context, the NSC commented in the reporting year on the results of the review of the reference scenarios as well as the zone concept.
As part of the sectoral plan procedure for deep geological repositories, the NSC took part in the so-called interim technical meetings to assess the level of geological knowledge achieved in the potential siting areas and recorded its conclusions for the attention of the Swiss Federal Nuclear Safety Inspectorate (ENSI).
Other activities included commenting on the 2013 activity and annual report of the ENSI Council and commenting on three draft ENSI guidelines.
