Report – Fukushima Nuclear Accident Independent Investigation Commission

The National Diet of Japan – The official report of The Fukushima Nuclear Accident Independent Investigation Commission, Executive summary [full report, 641 pages, forthcoming]

  • A “manmade” disaster – The TEPCO Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant accident was the result of collusion between the government, the regulators and TEPCO, and the lack of governance by said parties. They effectively betrayed the nation’s right to be safe from nuclear accidents. Therefore, we conclude that the accident was clearly “manmade.” We believe that the root causes were the organizational and regulatory systems that supported faulty rationales for decisions and actions, rather than issues relating to the competency of any specific individual.”
