“…(2) Examples of risk communication practiced in the host communities of nuclear power plants Certain outcomes have been obtained and compiled in earlier studies on practical risk communication in the host communities of nuclear power plants [9][10][11] . These studies examined how interactive (risk) communication has been practiced between power utilities and local residents as well as how it should be continued.…”

Two level tsunami hazards were assigned to reflect tsunami sizes after the massive tsunami generated by the 2011 Tohoku earthquake devastated East Japan. Furthermore, measures for disaster management and reduction are planned, while discussions are to be held on reducing disasters around vital facilities in coastal areas. In areas around nuclear facilities, it is even more important for necessary measures to be prepared in anticipation of any facility-related accidents that may result from the devastation caused by a tsunami. To better manage and mitigate tsunami disasters in areas around nuclear facilities, it is vital for power utilities as well as the national and local governments to fulfill their assigned roles in a coordinated manner and work together with municipalities and local residents.

This study aims at revealing the relationships among risk assessment result, risk perception model and risk acceptance model of the residents near nuclear power plants in Japan. Risk acceptance model is based on the trust of resident to nuclear power plants (NPPs) companies. The risk perception of the residents is very fragile and is not always based on objective technical knowledge. In addition, there are two models of risk acceptance: traditional trust model and salient value similarity model. In order to discuss the risk communication framework between NPPs with residents, applicability of two modes on the perception of the residents should be investigated. The author collected questionnaire from local resident near Kashiwazaki-Kariwa NPP in Niigata, Japan. Severity of risk is significantly affected by the extents of risks, not by amount of knowledge. Radiation relating hazard is normally evaluated higher risk. Risk acceptance level is significantly related to the factors of social benefits and trust to the NPPs company, not by regional interest nor amount of knowledge. Furthermore, value similarity model was not significant in this study. The results demonstrated that risk acceptance model of local residents near NPPs could be arranged by traditional trust model. In order to establish mutual trustworthy relationships between local residents and NPPs engineer, expert knowledge in nuclear power, communication skills, and expertise in safety are necessary to the engineers.

Regenerative medicine (RM) has the potential to strongly impact on society. To determine non-experts’ impressions of RM, we analyzed opinions obtained from workshops in which participants freely discussed RM. Three major features were apparent. First, non-experts were most concerned with the possible effects of RM after it has been fully realized in society. Second, non-experts expressed concerns not only about RM itself, but also about the governance and operation of the technology. Third, non-experts were not only concerned about direct influences of RM, but also about its potential indirect influences. These identified features are likely to be controversial issues when RM is introduced into society. It is important to promote early discussion of these issues by society as a whole.
