Abstract

Decommissioning is one of important stages in construction and operation of research reactors. In Indonesia there are three research reactors in operation, one of which has reached more than 40 years old since its first criticality. The reactor will probably be decommissioned in the next ten years. The three reactors are operated by the National Nuclear Energy Agency (BATAN) under control by the Nuclear Energy Regulatory Agency (BAPETEN). As bases for controlling the construction and operation of the reactors, there are several regulations available. However, there is still lack of regulation specifically concerning the decommissioning of the research reactors.
