Solatium will be cut off by the end of August

Screening panel of nuclear disaster compensation announced they are considering to stop solatium (100,000JPY / month) for the citizens living in the former evacuating zone (20~30km) in Fukushima.
They explain, Japanese government lifted the evacuating zone on 9/30/2011, and the infrastructure is being rebuilt. They are planning to cut of the solatium by the end of this august.

The zone includes Minamisoma, Tamura, Kawauchi and Hirono.
They are planning to stop it by the end of august because they are going to make students go to school from September.
Having the regional economy downward and medical treatment is not fully recovered, Prof. Nomi, the chairman of Screening panel of nuclear disaster compensation, talks, the plan might be changed if the infrastructure is not recovered. Citizen could file alternative conflict resolution procedures for every single case.

慰謝料、8月末打ち切りも=旧緊急時避難準備区域-原子力損害賠償紛争審
東京電力福島第1原発事故の賠償範囲を検討する原子力損害賠償紛争審査会(会長・能見善久学習院大教授)は8日、新たな賠償指針策定に向けて詰めの議論を行った。旧緊急時避難準備区域の住民に対する月額10万円の慰謝料については、同区域の設定が昨年9月30日に一括解除され、インフラ復旧も進んでいるとして、今年8月末を目安に支給を打ち切る案が有力となった。
福島第1原発の半径20~30キロ圏内に政府が設定した同区域には、福島県南相馬市、田村市、川内村、広野町などが含まれる。8月末とする根拠について審査会は、2学期から学校に通える環境が整うことなどを挙げた。ただ、「経済の活発化は期待できず、医療体制への不安も強い」と支給終了の時期を示すのは尚早との意見もあり、能見会長は「インフラが整っていなければ見直しもあり得る。ADR(裁判外紛争解決手続き)での個別救済も可能だ」との考えを示した。(2012/03/08-20:04)

About this site

This website updates the latest news about the Fukushima nuclear plant and also archives the past news from 2011. Because it's always updated and added live, articles, categories and the tags are not necessarily fitted in the latest format.
I am the writer of this website. About page remains in 2014. This is because my memory about 311 was clearer than now, 2023, and I think it can have a historical value. Now I'm living in Romania with 3 cats as an independent data scientist.
Actually, nothing has progressed in the plant since 2011. We still don't even know what is going on inside. They must keep cooling the crippled reactors by water, but additionally groundwater keeps flowing into the reactor buildings from the broken parts. This is why highly contaminated water is always produced more than it can circulate. Tepco is planning to officially discharge this water to the Pacific but Tritium is still remaining in it. They dilute this with seawater so that it is legally safe, but scientifically the same amount of radioactive tritium is contained. They say it is safe to discharge, but none of them have drunk it.
