Gov't eyes implementation of new nuclear regulations from July 8
TOKYO, June 18, Kyodo
Japan is expected to introduce new nuclear regulations from July 8 in a move to overhaul safety requirements for commercial reactors following the 2011 Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant disaster, sources close to the matter said Tuesday.
Four power suppliers will likely apply by the end of July with the Nuclear Regulation Authority for safety assessment to bring 12 reactors at six nuclear plants back online, according to the sources.
The four are Hokkaido Electric Power Co., Kansai Electric Power Co., Shikoku Electric Power Co. and Kyushu Electric Power Co.
