Revised policy has no plan for water buildup at Fukushima plant : The Asahi Shimbun

Tanks filled with water treated after cooling melted nuclear fuel dot the premises of the Fukushima No. 1 nuclear power plant. (Asahi Shimbun file photo) The government continues to defer a decision on dealing with more than 1 million tons of contaminated water stored at the Fukushima No. 1 nuclear power plant, an issue that has drawn international attention. The Cabinet on March 9 approved the government’s revised basic policy for reconstruction of the Tohoku region for fiscal 2021, which begins in April, and beyond. But the policy only stated that a conclusion would be made “at an appropriate time” regarding the accumulating water at the stricken nuclear plant.

Mayor again stands in way of plan for spent nuclear fuel : The Asahi Shimbun

The intermediate storage facility of Recyclable-Fuel Storage Co. located in Mutsu, Aomori Prefecture (Asahi Shimbun file photo) Utilities have revived plans to expand the use of an intermediate storage facility for spent nuclear fuel, but immediately objections were voiced by the same mayor who quashed a similar proposal two years ago. The Federation of Electric Power Companies of Japan (FEPC) on Dec. 17 formally announced that it would push forward with the plan to allow all utilities that operate nuclear power plants to use the intermediate storage facility in Mutsu, Aomori Prefecture. Kazuhiro Ikebe, head of FEPC, met the same day with economy minister Hiroshi Kajiyama, who oversees the nuclear power industry, and presented the proposal. Kajiyama pledged his cooperation to realize the plan.
