On 26 June 2003, local authorities are expected to grant approval for the construction of a large spent fuel interim storage facility in the city of Mutsu, Aomori Prefecture, Japan.
The move is a further sign of the failure of the Japanese spent fuel management strategy that officially favors reprocessing, plutonium separation and use over the direct storage option for spent nuclear fuel.
While the facility is designed to hold the fuel up to 50 years, a key concern is that the fuel does not have any final destination and will end up remaining for an unlimited time at Mutsu.
