RE: Japan shuts down Nuke

["Jacobus, John (OD/ORS)" <jacobusj@ors.od.nih.gov>]

It is interesting that the Japanese lack of trust is based on a processing

accident that involved enriched fuel, and not from a nuclear power reactor

accident, like TMI where there was no injuries of deaths, and off-site

exposures were minuscule.

Japan is NOT helping the nuke power movement - in fact

they are succeeding in giving the greens some powerful

ammunition! 



. . .



Japan relies on nuclear power for 30 percent of its

electricity. However, the Japanese public has become

increasingly wary of the reactors since a 1999

radiation leak at a fuel-reprocessing plant killed two

workers.
