Technical support organizations in Europe operated or supported their national nuclear emergency centres by providing technical and radiological information on the Fukushima accident, and giving advice to national regulators and governments. The work carried out by TSOs included: preliminary safety assessments of the situation, evaluation of accident progression, radiological source term assessments, radiation dispersion calculations, and estimates of the environmental impact and radiological consequences of the accident. On 7-8 November, the Eurosafe Forum met in Paris to hear papers presented by members of the European TSO Network (ETSON). The members of ETSON are Bel V (Belgium), GRS (Germany), IRSN (France), UJV (Czech Republic) and VTT (Finland). JNES (Japan) and SSTC (Ukraine) are associate members.
