Hi!

Looks fine, but why do we need a relation for single-site facilities
(examples Fukushima and Themis)? A site-relation is usually only necessary
if not all  features of the "site" are within one closed area, i.e. they
are dispersed. I would strongly recommend keeping it this way.

best regards,
Martin

P.S: Please change "Experimented users" into "Experienced users" in Simple
tagging ;-)
