Delaying work in Fukushima

We are getting less and less information about the situation at the Fukushima nuclear power plant. Recently, several dozen journalists have had the opportunity to see the plant from a small nearby mountain, while the technicians of the management company TEPCO have been informed.

According to the information provided to journalists, more than 10,000 workers work in the plant cleaning and control. In one of the six areas, an attempt is being made to install a boin or a lid, and without interruption water is poured into the hearts of those areas, but no one knows where it is going. Furthermore, it was planned that by 2017 the fuel would be extracted from an area, but this process would be delayed by at least three years. “We don’t have technology for it,” TEPCO said.
