TERMS
OF REFERENCE |
|
| |
The
Committee may review
-
Capability
of Indian Nuclear Power Plants to withstand earthquakes
and other external events such as tsunamis,
cyclones, floods, etc.
-
Adequacy
of provisions available to ensure safety in case of such
events, both within and beyond design basis.
-
The
Committee may co-opt additional members and/or constitute
task forces as required.
Since
the events at Fukushima are still unfolding, and full analysis
and understanding will become available in due course, the
Committee may consider issuing an interim report as early
as possible followed by a final report subsequently.
