    II. Overview of Accident at the Fukushima Dai-ichi Nuclear Power Station 1. Overview of the Fukushima Dai-ichi Nuclear Power Station (1) Plant overview: dimensions, capacity, citing history, etc. The Fukushima Dai-ichi Nuclear Power Station (hereinafter referred to as the “Fukushima Dai-ichi NPS”) is located in the towns of Okuma and Futaba, which are in the county of Futaba, Fukushima Prefecture. The plant faces the Pacific Ocean on the east. The plant site has a half oval shape with its long axis laid along the beach. The site has a total area size of about 3.5 million m3. The Fukushima Dai-ichi NPS is the first of the nuclear power stations built and operated by Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO). The construction of Unit 1 started in April, 1967. The nuclear power station now has six boiling water reactors (BWRs) as a result of reactor units being added one after another. The operation of Unit 1 began in March of 1971. The total installed capacity of the whole plant, including Units 1 through 6, amounts to 4,696,000 kW. For the dimensions, capacity and other details of generation facilities at each unit, see Attachment II-1. For the principle of power generation by BWR, see Attachment II-2. (2) Plant layout and structures Units 1 through 4 are located in the town of Okuma, which is in the county of Futaba, Fukushima Prefecture. Units 5 and 6 are located in the town of Futaba in the same county. For the layout of these reactor units, see Attachment II-3.

  • Fukushima Nuclear Disaster – Implications for Japanese Agriculture and Food Chains
    Munich Personal RePEc Archive Fukushima nuclear disaster – implications for Japanese agriculture and food chains Bachev, Hrabrin and Ito, Fusao Institute of Agricultural Economics, Sofia, Tohoku University, Sendai 3 September 2013 Online at https://mpra.ub.uni-muenchen.de/49462/ MPRA Paper No. 49462, posted 03 Sep 2013 08:50 UTC Fukushima Nuclear Disaster – Implications for Japanese Agriculture and Food Chains1 Hrabrin Bachev, Professor, Institute of Agricultural Economics, Sofia, Bulgaria2 Fusao Ito, Professor, Tohoku University, Sendai, Japan 1. Introduction On March 11, 2011 at 14:46 JST the Great East Japan Earthquake occurred with the epicenter around 70 kilometers east of Tōhoku. It was the most powerful recorded earthquake ever hit Japan with a magnitude of 9.03 Mw. The earthquake triggered powerful tsunami that reached heights of up to 40 meters in Miyako, Iwate prefecture and travelled up to 10 km inland in Sendai area. The earthquake and tsunami caused many casualties and immense damages in North-eastern Japan. According to some estimates that is the costliest natural disaster in the world history [Kim]. Official figure of damages to agriculture, forestry and fisheries alone in 20 prefectures amounts to 2,384.1 billion yen [MAFF]. The earthquake and tsunami caused a nuclear accident3 in one of the world’s biggest nuclear power stations - the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant, Okuma and Futaba, Fukushima prefecture. After cooling system failure three reactors suffered large explosions and level 7 meltdowns leading to releases of huge radioactivity into environment [TEPCO]. Radioactive contamination has spread though air, rains, dust, water circulations, wildlife, garbage disposals, transportation, and affected soils, waters, plants, animals, infrastructure, supply and food chains in immense areas.
