Miyagi Governor Approves Nuclear Reactor Restart
The governor of Miyagi Prefecture in northeastern Japan has approved the restart of the No.2 reactor at Tohoku Electric Power Company's Onagawa nuclear plant. The reactor is the first in the region affected by the 2011 earthquake and tsunami to win local consent for restart.
The assemblies of Onagawa Town and Ishinomaki City, which host the plant, as well as the Miyagi prefectural assembly had earlier agreed to allow the reactor to go back online.
