• Japan nuclear plant is susceptible to accident, official says
  Chubu Electric Power's idled Hamaoka nuclear plant in Shizuoka, Japan is at risk of a major nuclear accident, said Shizuoka Gov. Heita Kawakatsu. Chubu Electric's safety measures for the plant are "inadequate," Kawakatsu said, adding that he will not permit its restart until the utility resolves the used-fuel-disposal issue.
