July 2016 - The T2K experiment in Japan watches for these oscillations as neutrinos travel between the J-PARC accelerator in Tokai and the Super-Kamiokande neutrino detector in Kamioka, 295 kilometres away.  It began operating in February 2010, but had to shut down for several years after Japan was rocked by a magnitude-9 earthquake in 2011.

They also had another accelerator lab (J-PARC) that had to be repaired after an earthquake.  Water got into some of the concrete rooms and they had to adjust the beam alignment I seem to remember.
