In what kind of work environment is decommissioning work conducted?

We have made great improvements to the labor environment. In addition to reducing the amount of protective equipment required through field decontamination, we’ve also built a large rest house that has a cafeteria in which workers can get hot meals (May 2015), a convenience store (March 2016), and a shower facility (April 2016). Furthermore, in preparation for accidents we also established a 24-hour emergency room (ER) where medical treatment can be received (July 2011), and we built a helipad in May 2017 to prepare for cases where workers need to be quickly evacuated to an external medical facility.

In the Unit 1 to 3 reactor buildings, the Unit 1-4 turbine buildings, and the surrounding buildings, areas with retained water.

The Y zone designation shown by the yellow dotted lines applies to work involving contamination, such as handling of high-concentration saltwater. For work such as patrols or site surveys for work planning, the G zone standard applies.
The Y zone standard is set temporarily even outside the Y zone areas shown in the figure, in G zone areas when work is performed involving high concentration particulate matter (building demolition, etc.) or on tank transfer lines for high concentration saltwater, etc.

In addition to the G zone areas shown in the figure, covers some other areas such as the second and third floors of the common pool building.
