Massive search by Japan, US 1 month after disaster
Monday marks a month since the massive earthquake and tsunami in northeastern Japan. The Japanese Self-Defense Forces and the US military conducted a massive search for more than 14,000 missing people on Sunday.
22,000 personnel, about 90 helicopters and about 50 ships were deployed for the mission.
The search was focused on coastal and submerged areas between Iwate and Fukushima prefectures. But areas within a 30-kilometer radius of the troubled Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant were not searched.
In the tsunami-hit city of Higashimatsushima, Miyagi Prefecture, about 400 members of the Ground Self-Defense Force searched for bodies in Omagari District. They removed debris using heavy machinery.
In Shinchi Town, Fukushima Prefecture, divers searched waters near a fishing port. Rescuers checked smashed cars in the hard-hit district of Kuwagasaki in Miyako City, Iwate Prefecture.
On Sunday alone, 86 bodies were recovered. The Self-Defense Forces plan to keep searching for the missing.

150,000 taking refuge 1 month after tsunami
On Monday, exactly one month passed since a massive earthquake and tsunami hit northeastern Japan, but about 150,000 people are still living at evacuation centers. Many have lost their homes, jobs and family members, and are facing the challenge of rebuilding their lives.
At 2:46 PM on March 11th, a magnitude-9 earthquake struck northeastern Japan. It was the largest quake on record to hit the country. Areas along the Pacific Coast in the Tohoku Region were devastated by the tremor and the more than 10-meter tsunami waves that followed.
The National Police Agency says 13,014 people are confirmed dead. The total number of deaths and registered missing is 27,621.
That figure includes deaths reported after a major aftershock on Thursday night.
In worst-hit Miyagi prefecture, 7,929 deaths have been confirmed. 3,811 have been confirmed in neighboring Iwate Prefecture and 1,211 in Fukushima Prefecture.
Some coastal areas devastated by the tsunami are still not able to figure out the exact number of missing people.
Search operations within the 20-kilometer exclusion zone around the crippled Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant are being hampered by radiation in the environment. Many families have not been able to confirm the whereabouts of their loved ones.
Nearly 151,150 people from disaster-hit areas are still living in evacuation centers in 18 prefectures.
A total of 450,000 were taking shelter at one point, with many living in difficult conditions. They faced severe shortages of water, food, heating fuel and other basic supplies, due to disrupted roads, gasoline shortages, and damaged utility facilities. Many evacuees returned to their homes after water, gas, and electricity were restored in their cities.
But those who lost their homes have to remain in evacuation shelters. Their problems include ensuring privacy.
Meanwhile, people are asking for the construction of temporary houses in many parts of the devastated areas.
Japan's land ministry says municipalities in Miyagi, Iwate, Fukushima, and other prefectures have requested that a total of 62,000 houses be built. The ministry says construction is underway on 7,800 houses, which is only 13 percent of the number requested. One major obstacle is a shortage of land, especially in submerged areas.
Many evacuees are scattered in cities outside of quake-hit Miyagi, Iwate, and Fukushima prefectures. About 23,000 people are staying at shelters outside the Tohoku Region, such as in Niigata, Saitama and Gunma prefectures.
Most of them fled Fukushima Prefecture after a series of accidents at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant. They have no idea when they will be able to return to their homes.

One month since disaster hits nuclear plant
One month after the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant was crippled by the quake and tsunami that devastated Japan's northeastern coast, the plant's operator is still struggling to regain control.
Tokyo Electric Power Company has been striving to restore reactor cooling systems since the March 11th disaster knocked out electricity at the plant. The power station continues to release radioactive substances into the air and sea.
Heavily contaminated water in turbine buildings and a concrete tunnel has been hampering restoration efforts and preventing workers from even inspecting the pumping systems.
On Sunday, TEPCO began removing debris from the plant using unmanned heavy machinery.
It plans to start moving highly radioactive water from the concrete tunnel to another storage facility on Monday.
At a news conference on Sunday, TEPCO said it is studying using air instead of seawater for cooling. It said cooling the reactors' containment vessels with water is also under consideration.
But a TEPCO executive said that at this point, the company is still examining viable options and cannot say when it will be able to achieve stable cooling and control the radiation.

Some dairy farms in Fukushima resume milk shipment
Some dairy farms in Fukushima Prefecture have resumed shipping milk after radiation levels in the milk cleared the government's safety standards.
The shipments are the first since the Japanese government lifted a ban last Friday on milk from 7 cities and towns in the prefecture.
The restriction was imposed by the health ministry last month after unsafe levels of radioactive substances were detected in milk from areas around the quake-damaged Fukushima nuclear plant.
A farmer who owns about 100 cows shipped 1.5 tons of milk on Monday. The farmer says he is glad because the milk he produces doesn't have to go to waste anymore.
He says he will do what he can to help other farmers who remain unable to ship their milk due to radiation contamination.
The prefecture will conduct follow-up radiation measurements once a week on milk shipped from the prefecture.

Expanded evacuation considered
The Japanese government is considering expanding its current 20-kilometer evacuation radius around the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant, taking into account the risks of long-term accumulated radiation exposure.
Chief Cabinet Secretary Yukio Edano said on Monday that the government may advise residents in areas between 20 and 30 kilometers from the plant to evacuate, based on accumulated radiation exposure levels. Currently such residents have been advised to remain indoors.
Edano also said the government is considering advising residents to evacuate even from areas outside the zone where cumulative radiation exposure risks are higher.
He said the possibility that the situation at the plant will worsen cannot be ruled out.
Iitate Village in Fukushima Prefecture could be the target of the evacuation instruction, because high levels of accumulated radiation have been recorded in some areas there. Most of Iitate lies farther than 30 kilometers from the power plant.
Iitate Mayor Norio Kanno 菅野典雄 told NHK that the village learned on Sunday that the government may put the entire village under an evacuation instruction for a certain period of time.
He said he is opposed to designating the entire village as an evacuation zone, because radiation levels in parts of the village remain low. But he said the government is unlikely to listen to him. He added that he wants to remain in the village and deal with the disaster's aftermath.

Fukushima gov. again rejects TEPCO apology
The Governor of Fukushima Prefecture has again rejected a request by Tokyo Electric Power Company President Masataka Shimizu to meet and offer an apology for the ongoing situation at the company's nuclear power plant.
TEPCO, the owner of the damaged Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear plant, says Shimizu hopes to visit Governor Yuhei Sato 佐藤雄平 on Monday, exactly one month after the quake and tsunami struck.
But sources say Shimizu's request was again refused by the Governor, as was a previous such request made shortly after the nuclear accident began last month.
TEPCO says its president is still seeking a chance to make an apology to the central and prefectural governments in Fukushima, and wishes to hold a news conference to offer an update on the accident.

55% of Fukushima evacuees worry radiation: survey
More than half of respondents of a survey of evacuees from Fukushima Prefecture, say their biggest future concern is the impact of radiation from the troubled nuclear power plant in the prefecture.
NHK interviewed evacuees last week, originally from Fukushima Prefecture, who are staying at shelters within the prefecture and nearby. 251 people responded.
When asked what is most troubling to them now, 55 percent of respondents said they are frustrated with the lack of accurate information about the nuclear plant, and their future housing prospects. This was followed by 36 percent who said they have to stay at shelters without privacy and 11 percent who said they cannot move easily without their own cars or gasoline.
In terms of the future, 55 percent said they are most concerned about the impact of radiation leaks from the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant, which has been out of control since the March 11 massive quake and tsunami.
43 percent said they are concerned about future jobs and their livelihood, and 28 percent said they are wondering how to secure a place to live.
One respondent said he has no idea how to stick it out, although everybody tells him to do so. Another person is worried about how he will manage because has lost both his house and land.
For evacuees, anxiety over their future appears to be growing as life at the shelters is dragging on.

Tokyo liquefaction survey
A geotechnical expert has determined that the March 11th earthquake caused liquefaction in at least 4,200 hectares of land along Tokyo Bay.
Professor Susumu Yasuda of Tokyo Denki University conducted a survey on the extent of liquefaction in areas around the bay. Tokyo lies at a distance of about 370 kilometers from the quake's epicenter.
He says the liquefaction was concentrated in land that was reclaimed relatively recently, or after 1966.
Liquefaction severely damaged residential areas built on reclaimed land in Urayasu and Narashino cities in Chiba Prefecture.
Work to restore sewage systems is progressing quickly, but little has been done to prevent liquefaction itself.
Professor Yasuda says strong quakes could cause further liquefaction in the future unless the underground water is removed and the ground solidified. He says that without such steps, it will take more than 100 years for the ground to stabilize.

Nuclear safety regrets its response to Fukushima
The government's Nuclear and Industrial Safety Agency admitted that it has sometimes failed to properly manage the accidents at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant.
Senior agency official Hidehiko Nishiyama made the statement to reporters on Monday, one month following the quake and tsunami that severely damaged the power plant in northeastern Japan.
Nishiyama said the agency failed to clearly address the problems at the plant, as one emergency followed another.
He said the agency will thoroughly review what it has done so far, so that it can restore the cooling functions of the reactors while preserving the safety of the Japanese people.
The agency is playing a central role in gathering information and overseeing the power plant as the government's nuclear safety regulator. They have dispatched officials to monitor progress at the plant.
But it has been regularly criticized for failing to coordinate media briefings with the power company. They have also been under fire for not providing enough information to the Nuclear Safety Commission, which offers technical advice to the government.

TEPCO president apologizes, one month later
The president of the operator of Japan's quake-damaged nuclear plant has visited Fukushima and apologized for the nuclear accident overwhelming the area.
Masataka Shimizu, the head of Tokyo Electric Power Company, visited the Fukushima government on Monday, exactly one month after the March 11 earthquake and tsunami crippled the company's Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant.
Shimizu apologized to people in and outside Fukushima Prefecture, saying his company has added to their physical and mental burdens with the nuclear crisis.
He also said he regrets not meeting local residents first of all to offer an apology. He said he failed to do so because he was overwhelmed by handing the accident from Tokyo.
He also said he was sorry that Fukushima Governor Yuhei Sato had refused his request to meet and receive an apology directly.
Turning to reparations, Shimizu said he is well aware that a large number of people have suffered damage over a wide area. He said his company will do its utmost to compensate them based on the government's guidelines, when they are compiled.
Shimizu declined to comment on how he himself would take responsibility for the problems, saying he must now concentrate on overcoming the company's worst-ever crisis.
He added that he expects to see the ruined No. 1 through No.4 reactors at the power plant to be decommissioned.
The number of people confirmed dead or missing from the March 11th disaster and aftershocks that hit northeastern Japan stands at 26,848.
The number is likely to increase.

M 7.0 quake hits northeastern Japan
A strong earthquake struck north-eastern Japan at 5:16 PM, local time, on Monday. The Meteorological Agency at one time issued tsunami warnings for the coastal areas of Ibaraki Prefecture.
The agency said the earthquake's magnitude was 7.0, and that its focus was in Fukushima Prefecture at a depth of 10 kilometers.
Intensities of 6 minus on the Japanese scale of 0 to 7 were registered in some areas of Fukushima and Ibaraki prefectures, including Furudono Town, Nakajima Village and Hokota City. An intensity of 5 plus was registered in many areas in the southern Tohoku and northern Kanto regions.
The Meteorological Agency lifted the tsunami warnings about fifty minutes later. A tsunami advisory for the coastal areas of neighboring prefectures was also lifted.
Several minor quakes occurred following the major quake at 5:16. The agency is also warning of possible aftershocks with intensities of 6 plus or 6 minus.
The operator of the crippled Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant, Tokyo Electric Power Company, says radiation figures at monitoring posts around the plant remain unchanged. The utility firm also says outdoor workers had been ordered to temporarily evacuate.

Water injection resumed at Fukushima Daiichi plant
The operator of Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant says water injection into the crippled reactors was briefly suspended after outside power lines were shut down by a magnitude 7.0 earthquake on Monday evening.
Tokyo Electric Power Company said that outside power was restored for reactors No.1, 2 and 3. Water injection was resumed for these reactors after a suspension of about 50 minutes.
55% of Fukushima evacuees worry radiation: survey
More than half of respondents of a survey of evacuees from Fukushima Prefecture, say their biggest future concern is the impact of radiation from the troubled nuclear power plant in the prefecture.

Fukushima evacuation zone expanded
The Japanese government has expanded its current 20-kilometer evacuation zone around the crippled Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant due to the risks associated with long-term radiation exposure.
Chief Cabinet Secretary Yukio Edano told reporters on Monday that residents in the expanded zone have been asked to evacuate within about a month.
Edano said annual exposure in the zone is expected to be above 20 millisieverts. The worldwide average exposure from the natural environment is 2.4 millisieverts.
The expanded zone includes Katsurao Village, Namie Town, Iitate Village and some parts of Kawamata Town and Minami Soma City.
Edano added that the government will consult with local municipalities. The residents do not have to evacuate immediately.
People in the areas between 20 and 30 kilometers from the plant are now asked to stay indoors or voluntarily evacuate.
Edano said that residents in other areas of the 30-kilometer zone will be asked to prepare for an emergency evacuation. He also said they will need to evacuate on their own. Vulnerable people, such as the handicapped, should be prepared for any contingency.
Edano urged that children, pregnant women, nursing care recipients and inpatients stay away from the areas, adding that kindergartens, elementary and junior high schools in the area will remain closed.

Water injection resumes at Fukushima plant
The operator of the Fukushima nuclear plant says water pumping to cool 3 crippled reactors was briefly disrupted after external power sources were knocked out by a strong aftershock on Monday evening.
Tokyo Electric Power Company said external power was cut to reactors 1, 2 and 3 at 5:16 PM, just after the magnitude 7.0 quake. Water injection was resumed after a suspension of about 50 minutes.
The government's Nuclear and Industrial Safety Agency is checking the situation at the site, but assumes the interruption in cooling had no major impact. The Agency added that TEPCO is considering installing emergency power sources that automatically kick in when power is cut.
At the time of the latest earthquake, TEPCO instructed workers outside reactors No.1 to No.4 to evacuate. No one was injured. The utility lifted the evacuation order at 6:48 PM.
The company halted the pumping of high-level radioactive water from the No.2 reactor to a nuclear waste processing facility.
It also stopped injecting nitrogen into the containment vessel of the No.1 reactor to prevent a possible hydrogen explosion. The company plans to resume the work immediately after confirming safety at the unit.
TEPCO said no new abnormalities have been detected in radiation readings around the plant.
The Nuclear and Industrial Safety Agency says no irregularities have been found in external power lines and radiation readings at Onagawa nuclear power plant in Miyagi Prefecture.
The agency says outside power sources are also maintained at the Tokai Daini nuclear plant in Ibaraki Prefecture and a nuclear fuel reprocessing plant in Aomori Prefecture.

Radiation levels exceed permissible limit
The science ministry says the amount of radiation accumulated over about half a month in some areas of Fukushima Prefecture has exceeded the permissible level for a whole year.
Since March 23rd, the ministry has been measuring radiation levels in 15 locations more than 20 kilometers away from the crippled Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant.
At one location, in Namie Town about 30 kilometers northwest of the plant, 14,480 microsieverts of radiation had accumulated over the 17-day period to Sunday.
8,440 microsieverts of radiation were observed in Iitate Village.
In another location in Namie, the amount reached 6,430 microsieverts.
People would be exposed to this accumulated amount of radiation if they had stayed outdoors throughout the entire period.
The level at one location was more than 14 times the 1,000 microsieverts that the International Commission on Radiological Protection recommends as the long-term annual reference level for people. The recommended level of 1,000 microsieverts excludes radiation from the natural environment and medical devices.
Hiroshima University Professor Kiyoshi Shizuma says most of the radiation observed in Fukushima is believed to be radioactive cesium that has fallen to the ground.
Shizuma advises residents to wear masks to avoid inhaling radioactive substances mixed with dust.
He points to the need to take samples both from the air and the ground for detailed analyses in order to assess any possible impact on human health.

Work begins to remove radioactive water from nuclear plant
Workers at the disaster-hit Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant on Sunday started removing highly radioactive water in the plant that is hampering restoration efforts in the prolonged nuclear crisis, the government’s nuclear agency said.
Toxic water has been found in the basements of the Nos. 1 to 3 reactor turbine buildings, as well as in nearby underground trenches connected to them. Transferring the water, totaling some 60,000 tons, to nearby tanks and other storage places is seen as vital to move ahead with the work to restore the key cooling functions for reactors damaged after the March 11 quake and tsunami.
The workers started pumping out water filling a trench near the No. 2 reactor to a ‘‘condenser’’ inside the reactor’s turbine building, as the level of the water is edging up, apparently because of steps taken to block the water from leaking into the Pacific Ocean, the Nuclear and Industrial Safety Agency said.
...
As preparations proceeded for transferring the water, a male worker in his 30s was taken to a hospital as he complained of feeling sick around 11:10 a.m. after laying a hose pipe from 9:30 a.m., but is conscious and was found to have no radioactive materials on him, plant operator Tokyo Electric Power Co said.
The employee was later diagnosed as having ‘‘overworked,’’ according to TEPCO.
Wearing a full-face mask, outerwear upon protective clothing, rubber gloves and high boots, the worker was exposed in the work to 4.84 millisieverts of radiation, which is below the limit of 5 millisieverts set for Sunday’s work.
