주요내용 Commercial satellite imagery of the Yongbyon Nuclear Scientific Research Center from the month of September reveals there are numerous white, cylindrical-like containers in the Fuel Reception Area of the Radiochemical Laboratory. The purpose of these objects is unclear.

While there are no indications of renewed reactor operations, some minor work in being done to extend the earthen embankment that spans the two pump houses, probably to help mitigate erosion from seasonal flooding. Minor construction projects are underway throughout the rest of the complex, including at the Main Research and Administrative Headquarters Area and the engineering office building adjacent to the Experimental Light Water Reactor (ELWR).
