Jaczko in Japan

Former NRC chief Gregory Jaczko told a Tokyo antinuclear gathering that leaks of contaminated water at the crippled Fukushima plant had been known since early in the crisis and have worsened because Japan acted too slowly. “This was known from the beginning that there would potentially be these contamination problems,” he said. Jaczko added that that the world needs to seriously rethink nuclear safety and consider possibly ending its dependence on atomic power.
