Subject: [ RadSafe ] FRENCH FUKUSHIMA RESPONSE - HARD CORE CONCEPT

Hello:
 
As a means to preclude beyond design basis events on fission reactor
safety, the French (ASN) reports a proposal to augment the  conventional
defense-in-depth philosophy.  The hard core concept is  dimensioned to
withstand hazards of a higher intensity that those considered in  the
existing baseline safety standards.  The hard core concept is being
 considered for implementation in France and is part of their Fukushima
Daiichi  response.
 
Details of the new French concept are available at:
