The head office of the Power Reactor and Nuclear Fuel Development Corp. (PNC), after its scheduled reorganization, will be accommodated at the PNC’s facilities in Tokai, Ibaraki Prefecture, Riichiro Chikaoka, director general of the Science and Technology Agency, said after a Cabinet meeting Aug. 19.
