More than 11 years have passed since the Great East Japan Earthquake that caused extensive damage mainly in the Tohoku region. While reconstruction is progressing in many areas, issues remain concerning the final disposal of more than 13 million m3 of removed soil and decontaminated waste currently stored in interim storage facilities. This session focused on the social acceptability and multidimensional fairness of out-of-prefecture final disposal of removed soil generated by decontamination in Fukushima Prefecture. Although technical studies on the final disposal, such as volume reduction and storage, have made progress, discussions on the social acceptability of various options in the site selection process and the consensus building process have not progressed much. In this session, based on the latest research results on the consensus, we discussed selection process and social acceptability assessment for out-of-prefecture final disposal of removed soil, and future directions.
