Two years ago, on July 8, 2013, and immediately after new regulatory standards came into effect, the power company initially filed its applications with the NRA for three related items: (a) permission to change reactor installations, (b) approval of the construction plan for the Sendai-1 and -2 NPPs, and (c) approval of changes to operational safety programs for the two units.<\/p>\n

The NRA designated both units as priority NPPs, after which it carried out the required examinations. It finally approved the applications for permission to change reactor installations (basic design) in September 2014.<\/p>\n
