About 100 people attended the ceremony, including Commission Chair Choi Wonho, local government and council officials, and residents.
Under the Act on Disclosure of Nuclear Safety Information and Communication, the Commission has been working to establish information-sharing centers equipped with facilities and staff to provide nuclear safety information to residents living near nuclear facilities.
Through an open call in June this year, the Commission selected four locations as a priority: Kori, Saeul, Wolseong, and Yeonggwang. Following the opening of the Kori and Saeul centers in September, the Hanbit (Yeonggwang) Information Sharing Center opened on November 3. The Wolseong Information Sharing Center is also expected to begin full-scale operations once construction is complete.
Located within the Yeonggwang Radiation Emergency Preparedness Center, the Information Sharing Center has a resident materials reading room, online information-search booths, a collection of nuclear safety information, and a community space. It will serve as a hub for communication with local residents by providing access to nuclear safety information, holding briefings for residents, offering locally tailored content, and supporting the operation of the Nuclear Safety Council.
