6. Pohjonen, 23rd October 2009 6 The purpose of site screening is to justify the selection of few sites for further development Site screening is done in the very beginning of the NPP project development when several possible NPP sites have been identified The target of the screening is to analyse and rank several sites in order to enable further development of only a few sites without major surprises – in other words, to optimally allocate the substantial investment required for further development More detailed assessment is carried out in the chosen sites as the project proceeds to permitting phases Permits in accordance with the Finnish Nuclear Energy Act Decision in Principle Construction LicenseOperation License

7. Pohjonen, 23rd October 2009 7 Guidelines used in site screening International: Site Survey for Nuclear Power Plants IAEA Safety Series No. 50-SG-S9 (1984) Site Evaluation for Nuclear Installations Safety Requirements IAEA Safety Standards Series No. NS-R-3 (2003) External Human Induced Events in Site Evaluation for Nuclear Power Plants Safety Guide IAEA Safety Standards Series No. NS-G-3.1 (2002) Dispersion of Radioactive Material in Air and Water and Consideration of Population Distribution in Site Evaluation for Nuclear Power Plants Safety Guide IAEA Safety Standards Series No. NS-G-3.2 (2002) Evaluation of Seismic Hazards for Nuclear Power Plants Safety Guide IAEA Safety Standards Series No. NS-G-3.3 (2003) Meteorological Events in Site Evaluation for Nuclear Power Plants Safety Guide IAEA Safety Standards Series No. NS-G-3.4 (2003) Flood Hazard for Nuclear Power Plants on Coastal and River Sites Safety Guide IAEA Safety Standards Series No. NS-G-3.5 (2004) Geotechnical Aspects of Site Evaluation and Foundations for Nuclear Power Plants Safety Guide IAEA Safety Standards Series No. NS-G-3.6 (2005) National (Finland): Safety criteria for siting a nuclear power plant STUK YVL 1.10 (2000) Other related regulations International Atomic Energy Agency The Radiation and Nuclear Safety Authority of Finland

The sites are assessed and scored against two main sets of criteria, which are divided to several subsets of criteria

9. Pohjonen, 23rd October 2009 9 Site 1 Site 2 Site 3 Site 4 Site 5 Site 6 Site 7 Site 8 Site 9 Method enables trade- offs and decision making between different site specific risks in project development Illustrative summary of the results shows strengths and weaknesses of each area or site Method enables clear presentation of unfeasible or excluded areas.

10. Pohjonen, 23rd October 2009 10 Conclusion A comprehensive, versatile and professional site- screening results in optimal selection of the site and thus decreases project risks related to site-spesific issues – however, as the issue of nuclear power is complex in any society, this does not mean that everybody would be happy with the project or even with the site selection.
