Chernobyl Plant to Host 2-Day Seminar
A two-day seminar is scheduled for May 21 and 22 at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant. The theme of the presentation is "International and national project enhancing nuclear and radiation safety of the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant and the Exclusion Zone and unconditional Zone (compulsory) resettlement, condition and experience of problems, prospects."
In other words , the purpose of the seminar presentations is the analysis of the state, experiences and prospects of implementation of international and national projects to improve nuclear and radiation safety at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant and the Exclusion Zone. They will also discuss problems and ways to create modern automated systems for radiological controls as well as systems for monitoring non-proliferation of radioactive substances and nuclear materials. Additional topics include how to ensure the safety of radioactive waste management, radiation safety personnel, the public and the environment.
The seminar organizers include the Chernobyl Nuclear Plant administration, Institute for Security AES NASU, State Research and Production Enterprise "Chernobyl Radioecological Center (GSNPP "Ekotsentr"), and the corporation Ukratomprilad (Ukrainian nuclear devices and the system).
This seminar apparently is not open to the public, though members of the media are invited to the event. Since the seminar is at the Chernobyl Plant, journalists cannot just show up at the checkpoint. Prior arrangements must be made through the Information and Analysis Unit of the Chernobyl Plant - May 19 is the deadline for accreditation.
It sounds like an interesting seminar, but I'm sure it would only be worthwhile to attend if you can understand Russian at close to an expert level.
