西北监督站对中科院上海应物所钍基熔盐实验堆项目开展日常监督检查

"The Northwest Supervision Station conducts daily supervision and inspection on the thorium-based molten salt experimental reactor project [of SINAP, CAS]"

(2020 April 03)

检查组列席了现场底板浇筑开工前会议，见证了主体装置厂房底板浇筑的现场工作，查看了施工程序方案、质量计划、技术规程及相关记录等。底板浇筑结束后，检查组对质量保证大纲实施情况及核安全管理要求的落实情况进行了检查，对个别人员进行了访谈，召开了钍基熔盐堆项目监督检查的第二次对话会，

"The inspection team attended the pre-construction meeting of the on-site floor pouring, witnessed the site work of the main plant floor pouring, and checked the construction procedure plan, quality plan, technical regulations and related records.

"After the bottom plate was poured, the inspection team inspected the implementation of the quality assurance program and the implementation of nuclear safety management requirements,

"interviewed individual personnel, and held the second dialogue meeting for the supervision and inspection of the thorium-based molten salt reactor project."
