On April 26th 1986 the fourth reactor at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant exploded. The battle of Chernobyl has begun. For eight months, 800,000 young soldiers worked to try and 'liquidate' the radioactivity around the ruined reactor and, above all, to save the world from a second explosion.
Chernobyl...THIS is how I made the connection when Fuku happened, just how devastating Fuku really was! If this won't school a person up...then in my opinion nothing will!
In comparing the lengths the Russians went to to attempt to tackle this monster, to the Fuku fable...it screams to the soul how screwed we all are!

Tsunami projections for nuclear plant to be redone
Nuclear & Energy Jul. 31, 2014 - Updated 13:29 UTC-4
The operator of a nuclear power plant in central Japan has been found to have miscalculated the simulated maximum height of a tsunami that could hit the complex.
The Nuclear Regulation Authority once approved tsunami projections submitted by Kansai Electric Power Company for the now-offline Takahama plant in Fukui Prefecture.
The estimates include tsunami heights and tremor intensity associated with earthquakes of the largest conceivable magnitude in the area.
The authority is now examining an application from Kansai Electric to restart the No.3 and No.4 reactors at the plant.
But at a screening meeting on Thursday, Kansai Electric was found to have incorrectly entered data involving the expected duration of a continuous undersea landslide that could happen in the event of a major quake. The cause of the error is unknown.
The utility now needs to use correct data to recalculate the predicted height of the tsunami.
The authority discovered tsunami projections for the Takahama plant to be inadequate immediately after screening began in July of last year.
Kansai Electric later raised its maximum tsunami estimate to 5.7 meters, up about 3 meters from the initial simulation. The company is currently building a 6.5-meter wall to safeguard the plant against tsunami.
Observers say the result of the recalculation might force Kansai Electric to increase its maximum tsunami projection again and overhaul its countermeasures. The process, if necessary, could delay the authoritys screening and completion of a tsunami wall.
Kansai Electric officials say they want to review the tsunami estimates and report the results as soon as possible.
All the nuclear reactors in Japan are currently offline. In July of this year, the authority approved a draft safety plan for restarting reactors at the Sendai nuclear plant in Kagoshima Prefecture, Kyushu, southwestern Japan.
NPO members arrested for Fukushima redress fraud
Japan Aug. 2, 2014 - Updated 12:38 UTC-4
Tokyo police have arrested 4 people on suspicion of swindling compensation money out of the operator of the damaged Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant.
Police say that 3 former members of a Tokyo-based non-profit organization and an executive of a staffing agency in Fukushima Prefecture defrauded Tokyo Electric Power Company of about 117,000 dollars.
The 4 suspects allegedly made a false claim in 2012 that the staffing agency suffered a sales drop because it received fewer job orders from hotels in Fukushima after the nuclear accident in the previous year.

Nuclear plant looks to end emergency planning role
MONTPELIER, Vt. — The soon-to-close Vermont Yankee nuclear plant wants to stop more than $2 million in annual payments for emergency planning in the region, but a watchdog group opposes that, saying nuclear waste on-site will create continuing risks.

Areva, which has not sold a new nuclear reactor since 2007, hopes French utility EDF will get the green light from European Union competition authorities this year to build two Areva reactors in Britain, but its reactor sales are suffering badly from the aftermath of the 2011 Fukushima disaster.
