plant in Fukushima.
The operator of the damaged Japanese nuclear power plant in Fukushima
plans to build additional interim storage facility for highly
radioactive waste. Tepco is to create a media report from Sunday until
early June, capacity for 31 400 tons of water.
Should then be built up with additional storage capacity every month
until December vast reservoir if the water filtration and cooling
systems do not work again in June as planned, the Japanese television
station NHK reported.
Tepco has currently pumping almost 70 000 tonnes of radioactively
contaminated waste water from the turbine buildings and out of
tunnels, which had been used for emergency cooling of the damaged
reactor. The water hinders the repair work on the cooling system and
endanger the workers. The nuclear power plant was on the earthquake
and subsequent tsunami 11th March has been severely damaged.
Pope Benedict XVI. thought in his Easter message of disaster. The
country may "find comfort and hope as it is the dramatic consequences
of the recent earthquake," imagine, Benedict said on Easter Sunday at
the festively decorated St. Peter's Square in Rome in front of tens of
thousands of believers. On Sunday in Japan were registered 14 300
deaths, 11 999 people were more missing.
