ePluthermalf power generation plan must be cancelled: JCP chair

Japanese Communist Party Chair Shii Kazuo on March 7 called for the cancellation of a gpluthermalh power generation plan which the Tokyo Electric Power Company is promoting in Fukushima Prefecture.

The gpluthermalh plan intends to use plutonium-uranium mixed oxide (MOX) fuel at a nuclear power station in Fukushima Prefecture and Fukushima Governor Sato Yuhei has expressed his intention to accept it.

Describing the plan as greckless and dangerous,h Shii said at a press conference in Fukushima, gWith its low melting point, MOX fuel could lead to a meltdown or other severe accidents. The epluthermalf plan could also make control rods less effective.h

He stated that all nuclear fuel recycle systems must be withdrawn from Japan.
