The Nuclear Energy Supervisory Agency (Badan Pengawas Tenaga Tenaga Nuklir– “ BAPETEN ”) has confirmed that the involvement of Private Business Entities in the management of Nuclear Power Plant (Pembangkit Listrik Tenaga Nuklir- “ PLTN ”) waste is being regulated under Draft Regulation of the Government  on the Amendment to Regulation of the Government No. 61 of 2013 (“ PP 61/2013 ”) on the Management of Radioactive Waste (“ RPP on Radioactive Waste Management ”). Through the RPP on Radioactive Waste Management, the Government opens the opportunity for private entities to participate in the management of radioactive waste through cooperation mechanisms with the Government.

“Private entities can also participate alongside the Government and cooperate in a manner similar to the National Research and Innovation Agency (Badan Riset dan Inovasi Nasional- “ BRIN ”),” explained Ishak, Head of the Legal, Cooperation, and Public Communication Bureau of Bapeten, in an interview with Hukumonline.

Ishak explained that the formulation process of the RPP on Radioactive Waste Management is still ongoing and is currently in the stage of inter-ministerial discussions, including with the Ministry of Environment and the Ministry of Industry. These discussions cover aspects of environmental protection from radioactive waste, whether generated by PLTN or industrial activities.

“Finally, it is still being discussed at the inter-ministerial level and has not yet been finalized,” he concluded.
