"TEPCO refused in 2002 to calculate possible tsunami hitting Fukushima"


The Mainichi is reporting:
TEPCO refused in 2002 to calculate possible tsunami hitting Fukushima: ex-gov't official (January 30, 2018). Mainichi Japan. Available https://mainichi.jp/english/articles/20180130/p2a/00m/0na/017000c Retrieved Jan 30 2018.
Tokyo Electric Power Co. (TEPCO), operator of the disaster-stricken Fukushima No. 1 Nuclear Power Plant, refused in 2002 to calculate the potential effects of tsunami in case of an earthquake off Fukushima Prefecture when a now-defunct nuclear watchdog told the utility to conduct an evaluation, the Mainichi Shimbun has learned.

A former safety screening division official of the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry's Nuclear and Industrial Safety Agency (NISA) told the Mainichi Shimbun on Jan. 29 that TEPCO did not accept the agency's request even though the latter tried to convince the utility after the government released a long-term assessment report that a major earthquake could hit off the Pacific coast including areas off Fukushima Prefecture, possibly triggering massive tsunami. This is the first time that exchanges between the then nuclear agency and TEPCO following the release of the government report have come to light.

  1. MEANWHILE FUKUSHIMA DAIICHI's RUINED GENERAL ELECTRIC REACTORS CONTAMINATE THE OCEAN AND ATMOSPHERE

    There are 80 or 90 , old beat up reactors in america. All past
    Their expiration dates. Ready to meltdown, blow-up, have large fuel pool fires. When it happens , contamination will spread wide and far , as it has with Fukushima. Next hurricane season, any technical glitch. Our government, does no better in assessing or letting the public know of the dangers from natural distasters, and nuclear reactors, than the japanese have.

  2. A great deal of the water in America, is barely potable. Most of the people in those areas drink bottle water, from toxic plastic bottles, that are made in the areas they live, are filled with water from California. Maybe its distilled. Maybe it is not. 
    Barely potable drinkin water, from the faucet, is especially true in places like New Jersey, Texas, and Louisiana, where there are massive clusters of oil refineries, and chemical plants. 
    It is ironic, that the plants where the bottles, for the bottle water are made in these same places, with so many oil refineries, and chemical plants. 
    Many of those areas have had their water tables relentlessly perforated by oil fracking, and drilling as well.
    In areas low-lying areas at sea- level, there are many landfills, ther are huge manmade  mountains od garbage. They  rise 100 feet above the ground . Some are 5 miles across. They are manmade hills and small mountains, of grabage and poison. 
    Think of all the radioactive poison from americium smoke detectors, and their like. Think of all the  chemical poison that seeps from these plastic, poison, and radioactive landfills into the ground, and into aquifers.  Mountains of poison, that seep into the oil well-perforated, and industrial poisoned water table aquifers, in so many parts of America. 
    There are too many parts of America, where water tables, and aquifers are connected, so the pollution is omnipresent, for hunderds of miles. 
    The worst radiation, in our water, in America is radium from car exhuasts and coal-burning, air pollution. Radium that settles into the ground, and flows into our water tables. 300 million americans drink highly radioactive and toxic water, when they are not drinking the Nestles-type, bottled water, that contributes to the problem.

    1. Thanks for the information about threats to our fresh water, the basis of our material existence.

  3. No blood-sucking, money sucking nuclear reactors, shut down im america by trump. Yet so many of hiw minions, claim to know about fukushima. They claim to be antinuclear. No remedians for hundreds of thousands, of tons of nuclear waste. No investment in cheap, highly efficient, hi tech renewable energy, at a time when we are wallowing in a massive radioactive and chemical sewer, that is on the verge of collapse. When the reactors start blowing, the fuel-pools start burning, there will be no turning backs. There is now a greater risk, than the proscripted major nuclear accident, every 5 to 10 years. That is because there are so many reactors, running past their expiration dates.
    This is trumps infrastructure package.

    Paying a Toll to Private Investors When You Ride Trump's Federal Highways. That's His Infrastructure Pitch

  4. The prepper and crazy crews, of the alternative antinuclear scene, are now preaching tha nuclear war is inevitable and desirable.

  5. The alright, has a depopulation agenda. It is nuclear war. How much more twisted and evil, can they get Majia? Answer: it is the worst. Peoples skin falling off in pieces. Women children, bleeding to death from every pore in their bodies. Small children,screaming in horrific pain and agony. 
    If nothing else, the human race should be, working towards atonement now. The altright memes are meaningless, evil-gibberish and dystopian double-think. 
    There is no survival of the fittest. That ended with the first nuclear reactor, and bomb detonation.i know thay an auomated troll, used by the ruthless, psychotic powers-that-be will attack this. The dysopia, mind-control techniques, automated echo-chambers, are hard to fathom. The tight-knit , psychotic death-cult that has arisen. The concertedd armies of agents paid by the dark monies, of the dark oligarchs, is here

  6. The priests of dark, disater capitalism. When something, like fukishima occurs, make it worse! Start a nuclear war!

  7. Eisenhower was the grandaddy of hard-core nuclearism in the world today. He was the grandaddy of the military-industrial complex, in spite of the propaganda, put out. The  US started with 1000 nuclear waepons, when he came in. Ended with 22,000, when he came out. He did the most open air, nuclear-bomb testing. He set the fateful course for using inefficient, deadly nuclear reactors to generate energy. He had a cabinet of millionaires. He set the human race on the path of it's own destruction. A true evil monley general, as Dr Caldicott says, if there ever was one.
