The safety presentation was attended by approximately 80 employees from the institute and cooperating companies.
Following a presentation by NSnet on its activities, a lecturer from Japan Nuclear Fuel Limited (JNFL) spoke on "Crisis Management in the Nuclear Industry," and another lecturer from Tokyo Electric Power Co., Inc.'s Kashiwazaki Kariwa Nuclear Power Station, gave a presentation entitled "Activities aimed at creating a Safety Culture at Kashiwazaki Kariwa Nuclear Power Station."

The lecturer drew on his own experiences in outlining concrete examples of crisis management at nuclear power stations. He noted that the basis for crisis management during an accident or incident at a nuclear power facility is the prompt notification of management, who should be positioned to quickly make socially responsible decisions on policy matters related to immediate countermeasures and the prevention of problem reoccurrence.
Another lecturer introduced concrete examples of activities aimed at creating a safety culture at the Kashiwazaki Kariwa Nuclear Power Station, including self-examination within the nuclear power station organization, the establishment of a mutual understanding with local residents, and the promotion of cultural reform throughout the organization.
