Fukushima Updates 3/22

Here are the topics for today's Fukushima updates...
 
Hindsight nay-sayers concerning the spent fuel pool cooling system outage are now dominating the Press coverage in Japan... Not to let the political opportunity pass, Tokyo ordered Tepco to install multiple power supplies to the SFP cooling systems... The Nuclear Regulatory Authority will extend a “grace” period on nukes in order to meet some of the new regulations... Tokyo says Tepco owes them ~$110 million in decontamination costs, but the company isn’t so sure... While property values are dropping across Japan, they are going up significantly in the tsunami-disaster hit areas of Tohoku.
