Hitachiomi mayor accepts nuclear waste literature survey
Original: ごみ
The mayor of Hitachiomi in Ibaraki Prefecture has announced the city will accept a literature survey for a final nuclear waste disposal site, saying he made the decision after careful deliberation. Industry minister Akazawa called it highly significant, while residents and city councillors are divided. Neighbouring municipalities are also reacting, and the nuclear promotion policy is becoming an issue in the Ibaraki prefectural assembly election.
Why now: The mayor's acceptance announcement is a major step in Japan's contentious nuclear waste disposal process and has sparked local and national debate.
