I'm not sure how much longer I can take these nuclear idiots! I'm BLOWN AWAY by today's update. Stay tuned for the entire video, if at all possible. Your Head will explode after they finish telling you where the want to put the nuclear waste they have produced. Fucking MONJU Fast Breeder Reactor w/ OVER 9.000 MISSED SAFETY CHECKS and a TERRIBLE "SAFETY RECORD", OR 'in a whole in the ground" on and EARTHQUAKE PLAGUED COUNTRY?! WTF!!! Tsuruga has Already been deemed "with an ACTIVE FAULT" UNDER IT... and it's only a few miles from MONJU. These people are CRAZY!
"Agency: Nuclear waste can be DIRECTLY disposed of"
The Japan Atomic Energy Agency is reported to be looking at the direct disposal of spent nuclear fuel instead of reprocessing it.
NHK has obtained a draft report compiled by the agency which analyzed the environmental impact of disposing of spent nuclear fuel.
The conclusion of the analysis is expected to touch off controversy, because the government has long maintained the policy of reprocessing all spent nuclear fuel. It has conducted few studies about disposing of it as waste.
Spent nuclear fuel is known to have higher radiation levels than high-level radioactive waste.
But the agency's draft report says it is technically possible to directly dispose of spent nuclear fuel at a low radiation level.
If spent nuclear fuel is buried 1,000 meters underground for 1 million years, the radiation level at the earth's surface will peak in 3,000 years, at 0.3 microsieverts per year.
Even though reprocessing remains official government policy, the Rokkasho reprocessing plant is nowhere near full operating capacity.
Japan's nuclear power plants have accumulated 17,000 tons of spent nuclear fuel.
The agency's analysis is expected to lead to greater attention on future discussions on dealing with the stockpile of spent nuclear fuel.
Professor Tatsujiro Suzuki at Nagasaki University says the conclusion that direct disposal is possible is a very important step forward. Suzuki is a former member of the government's Atomic Energy Commission.

TEPCO: Groundwater bypass showing limited effects
Work to pump up groundwater to keep it from flowing into the contaminated Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant is apparently having limited effects.
Plant operator Tokyo Electric Power Company, or TEPCO, reported the results of the operation so far at a meeting of experts at the industry ministry on Friday.
TEPCO began the so-called groundwater bypass operation in May. It involves draining water from wells and releasing it into the sea to keep it from flowing into reactor buildings and becoming contaminated.
The utility had said the operation would reduce the amount of highly radioactive water created this way by up to 100 tons per day, down from roughly 400.
But TEPCO officials told the meeting that in the past 2 months, water levels at 3 wells located 70 to 150 meters from the reactor buildings dropped by only around 10 centimeters at most.
Experts voiced concerns about the limited effects of the operation. Others pressed TEPCO to come up with concrete data, saying that fishermen in Fukushima accepted the plan because they expected results.
The utility says rain is partly to blame for the limited effects of the operation. It says it plans to cover soil near the wells with asphalt by the end of next March, to keep rain from seeping into the ground.

that's it for links. I'm tired.
