Transporting Schedule for New Fuel, etc. for FY2010 at Hamaoka Nuclear Power Station

1. Fuel shipments to Hamaoka Nuclear Power Station (as of March 31, 2010)

<New fuel>

*1: Figures for Reactor No. 4 include shipments of MOX fuel (one time, 28 rods).

*2: The total number of times fuel was transported to Hamaoka Nuclear Power Station was 100 (the number in parentheses) because some shipments were those for two reactors shipped simultaneously (Nos. 1 and 2, Nos. 1 and 3, Nos. 1 and 4 (twice) and Nos. 2 and 5).

 <Spent fuel>

*3: The total includes a simultaneous shipment of units from Reactors No. 1 and 2 to England, a simultaneous shipment from Reactor No. 1 to England and France, and a simultaneous shipment from Reactors No. 3 and 4 to Rokkasho in Aomori Prefecture, bringing the actual total of shipments from Hamaoka Nuclear Power Station to 64 (the number in parentheses).

<Low-level radioactive waste>

*4: Number of drums transported from Hamaoka Nuclear Power Station

2. Spent fuel assemblies stored in spent fuel pool

The equipment capacity is the number of units that can be (physically) accepted by the equipment.

The number of units in storage is the number of units of spent fuel actually stored in the spent fuel pool.

The reactor is in operating status when the number of units in storage is lower than the maximum storage capacity obtained by subtracting the number of units to be loaded in the reactor from the equipment capacity.

Maximum storage capacity = (Equipment capacity) - (Number of units to be loaded in reactor)

However, operation of Reactors No. 1 and 2 has been terminated, and because there are no fuel assemblies to be loaded in the reactors, the equipment capacity is equivalent to the maximum storage capacity.
