Inside Fukushima I (Dai-Ichi), Nuclear Power Plant, Japan

On 4 April 2011, TEPCO vice president Takashi Fujimoto announced that the company was cancelling plans to build Reactors No. 7 and 8.
Incidents
On February 25, 2009 a manual shutdown was initiated during the middle of a startup operation. The cause was a high pressure alarm that was caused by the shutting of a turbine bypass valve. The reactor was at 12% of full power when the alarm occurred at 4:03am due to a pressure increase to 1,029.8 psi, exceeding the regulatory limit of 1,002.2 psi. The reactor was reduced to 0% power, which exceeded the 5% threshold that requires event reporting, and pressure dropped back under the regulatory limit at 4:25am. Later, at 8:49am the control blades were completely inserted, constituting a manual reactor shutdown. An inspection then confirmed that one of the 8 bypass valves had closed and that the valve had a bad driving fluid connection. The reactor had been starting up following its 25 regular inspection which began on October 18, 2008.
