Aging reactor approved to run beyond 40-yr limit

Photo taken in October 2016 shows a high-pressure water supply heater inside the turbine building of the No. 3 reactor at Kansai Electric Power Co.'s Mihama plant on the Sea of Japan coast. The Nuclear Regulation Authority gave approval on Nov. 16 for the unit to operate beyond the mandated 40-year maximum lifespan, signaling a further weakening in enforcement of the limit introduced after the 2011 Fukushima disaster.
