During their 101st meeting held on March 2 & 3, 2016, the EUR Steering Committee members decided to stop the free consultation and download of the EUR Document (Volumes 1, 2 and 4) through the EUR website, in order to better control the distribution and the use of the EUR Document.
The new policy about the distribution of the EUR Document is under discussion in the EUR organisation and will be finalised in the coming months.
Meanwhile the Steering Committee members decided to authorise the distribution of the EUR Document to EUR members only.
The EUR web site has been modified to be consistent with this temporary policy. From March 3, 2016, the consultation and the download of the EUR Document through the EUR website are no longer possible, even for already registered users. Only the download of tables of contents of each chapter of the EUR Document (Vol 1, 2 & 4) remains possible.
When the new policy is defined, the website will be modified to be in line with it. The new version of the website will be operational for the publication of Rev E of the EUR Document (Volumes 1, 2 & 4) in December 2016.

100th meeting of the EUR Steering Committee was held in Lyon on November 26-27, 2015.
For the occasion, all the formers EUR chairmen and secretaries were invited to a diner with all the current members representing the 15 Europeans countries of the EUR organisation.
Three of the previous EUR chairmen were present: Bernard Roche, François Hedin and Eric de Fraguier were welcomed by Guillaume Jacquart, the current chairman. A special thought was dedicated to Pierre Bacher, who founded the EUR organisation, 24 years ago, on November 20, 1991, chaired it during 6 years and sadly passed away last year.
Nowadays, the EUR organization gathers the major European companies involved in electricity generation from nuclear power in the European continent.
From the beginning, the target of the EUR organisation was to define common requirements with high expectations regarding, safety but also construction, operation and competitiveness of GEN III designs. Once the EUR requirements are defined, the next step was to evaluate GEN III designs proposed by designers for the European market against the EUR requirements. These requirements were also used by nuclear utilities, EUR members or not, as a basis to issue call for bids for new reactors.
