Japanese court rejects safety approval of Oi units : Regulation & Safety - World Nuclear News

Japanese court rejects safety approval of Oi units : Regulation & Safety - World Nuclear News: A district court has struck down government approval of safety measures at the Oi nuclear power plant in Japan's Fukui Prefecture, "effectively rejecting tougher safety screening guidelines" used by the Nuclear Regulation Authority, according to the Asahi Shimbun. The lawsuit did not seek a temporary injunction, so the two reactors can continue operating until the ruling is finalised.
