Protests as nuclear fuel ship docks in Japan by AFP / AFP Asian Edition Japan has built its own nuclear fuel reprocessing plant in northern Aomori prefecture, but its opening has been delayed after a series of minor accidents stirred up objections from the local community. Protests as nuclear fuel ship docks in Japan by AFP / AFP Global Edition He called for a process containing the following key components: * An assurance of reliable and safe nuclear fuel supply for electric power generation; * A moratorium on the construction of new fuel enrichment and reprocessing facilities; * The creation of multilateral nuclear fuel reprocessing and disposal systems, and; * The provision of multilateral fuel-production and enrichment arrangements.
