Today, the Japanese government has decided to establish the support scheme
for TEPCO. We expect the bill for this scheme to be enacted at the
earliest possible date.

Under this support scheme, while receiving support from the government, we
will prepare to compensate those who are suffering in a fair and prompt
manner.

Is it only me who thinks there is something not quite right about the people paying their own compensation?

@hudebnik and another ! why partial compo? I guess I know the answer it is because the people will have to claim the rest through the courts and how many are going to have the money/emotional wherewithal to actually take tepco on #justmyopinion

Did you ever see a post I had and @Thunder had about the nuclear testing that went on here and the damage it has caused to future generations?

April 17, 2011: We all hoped it wouldn't get to this, but the nuclear crisis in Japan is now officially as serious as the 1986 Chernobyl disaster. It's scary stuff but at least nowadays we know what we're up against. A half century ago, we were clueless. That's when the Brits started testing atomic bombs in remote parts of Australia like Maralinga. video.au.msn.com no offence to anyone here meant.

Radioactive substance detected in incinerator ashes in Tokyo

TOKYO, May 13, Kyodo


A highly radioactive substance was detected in incinerator ashes at a sewage plant in eastern Tokyo in late March, shortly after the start of the nuclear crisis at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power station, metropolitan government sources said Friday.

@marie rich I fully agree! did you watch the link I posted before about nulear teasting here in oz? It is a show of what it can do through generations........very sad really!

Morning-Afternoon-Evening all!
Fuku seems to have finally hit the US news cycle.

@lillymunster Morning to you! and That is a very good thing! only took an other meltdown for it to happen in our countries in the msm............

@lillymunster I agree! but the
media here will not say or do anything till the US does it first...seems to be the way things play out no matter how much you hound them.( look how late the last new post I got for here was?) its 10pm on fri13th here.

Hi carabnr!

@carabnr The NRC initial statement is just crazy. They seem to be ignoring all the known issues with the old mark 1 units. Uh, they can't operate properly if they lose power... not to mention have insufficient battery life. The power loss flooding combination is a very real threat to some of these plants including one in Nebraska that has sandbags as their plan to avert flooding. They also have no sandbag materials on site and no place lined up to get them.

@RBeaner Monticello NPP is high enough up the Mississippi to have a major flood event less likely, there are NPPs down river where it is an issue. Ft. Carson in NE is right outside of Omaha and on the Missouri, the Missouri floods frequently in the spring. A double whammy of a tornado around spring flooding could cause the same sort of catastrophe and it is an old BWR
