Talk about DOUBLE TALK!  You have GOT to see this double talk "update" in the first segment. Yes, Japanese government will help nuclear plants close, but they will Also help them continue operating.  Talk about Donald Rumsfeld double talk.... jeepers!
The only thing that came to my mind while watching TEPCO's first (FIRST) training exercise for engineers since March 11, 2011... AND ON TOP OF THAT the DOUBLE SPEAK of Decommissioning all old reactors OR extending a 20 year license!  WTF?  I remember a long time ago posting this 40 year old virgin update called: 40 Year Old Virgin nuclear reactors in Japan: Fukushima update 1/6/12  http://youtu.be/0hTtGBw_20k
Well, it's September 5, 2014, and here's what NHK is saying TODAY
Utilities consider decommissioning old reactors
Sep. 5, 2014 - Updated 08:01 UTC-4
The Japanese government will consider measures to ease the financial impact on utility companies when they decommission their old nuclear reactors.
The government wants to cut the country's dependence on nuclear power.
Last year, nuclear regulators introduced tougher safety guidelines for power plants. The regulators limited the lifespan of nuclear reactors to 40 years. They can grant extensions of up to 20 years under certain conditions.
Seven reactors at 5 power plants have reached, or will soon reach, the 40-year-mark.
The government has given the operators until next July to decide whether to apply for an extension or take the expensive step of scrapping them.
Industry ministry officials say they are considering ways to ease the financial impact and encourage the companies to decommission their old reactors.
Industry Minister, Yuko Obuchi said the government will help utilities to restart reactors that have been found to be safe. At the same time, she said, the government will help them decommission their reactors if they choose.
Japan's 48 commercial reactors are all offline. Nuclear regulators are studying safety measures at several plants to determine whether they can be restarted.
