The prefectural Fukushima Labor Bureau is accusing Tokyo Electric Power Company contractor Toshiba, and at least 17 of its sub contractors, of forcing low paid and untrained employees to work more than 10 hours per day.  This violates Japanese law restricting hazardous work to no more than 10 hours per day.

Toshiba officials lied to NHK (Nippon Housou Kyoukai/Japan Broadcasting Corporation) and said they thought the time spent prepping for a job was excluded from the 10 hour limit.  They promised to correct themselves.

Officials with Tomioka Town are refusing to allow TEPCo to restart the Fukushima Daini nuke plant.  Daini is only 10km (6.2 miles) from Daiichi.

Fukushima Daini was shut down after the 11 March 2011 quake and tsunami, but also suffered overheating issues.  Town officials say it’s obvious they can’t trust TEPCo with nuclear operations.

Officials of Tomioka Town also reporting 17 cases where abandoned homes and barns have been assaulted by new Sus hybrids, who’re in search of food.

NHK reporting that the ongoing nuclear accident(?) at Fukushima Daiichi has resulted in a new type of Sus.  Officials from five abandoned cities and towns are reporting an invasion of pig-boar hybrids.

Domesticated pigs were left behind when residents were forced to evacuate their towns, because of the nuke melt downs.  The pigs survived to breed with wild boars.  The result, along with radiation contamination, is a new pig-boar that has a voracious appetite and breeds like rabbits (one sow can give birth to ten piglets per year).  Local officials are hiring hunters to get rid of the new Sus Fukushima Daiichius.

The Japanese Environment Ministry is calling for slacking off in nuke clean  up procedures.  Officials claim the decontamination of towns around Fukushima Daiichi is taking too long, so they’ve instructed town officials to skip roof top cleaning and top soil removal!

The main reason the clean up is taking so long is that there are limited nuke waste storage sites in Japan.

Recently it was proposed that several towns, too close to the damaged nuke plant to allow residents to return, could be turned into temporary waste sites.  By temporary they mean for at least 40 years!
