OREANDA-NEWS. Chubu Electric Power today signed an “Agreement to Ensure the Safety of Municipalities Neighboring Hamaoka Nuclear Power Station” (“the Safety Agreement between the prefecture and seven municipalities”) with Shizuoka Prefecture and communities located within the Hamaoka.

Ever since being requested from the communities on March 28, 2014 for negotiations on signing an agreement to ensure the safety of municipalities neighboring Hamaoka Nuclear Power Station, our company has been engaging in talks with Shizuoka Prefecture and the concerned parties alike in a sincere manner. Our discussions proved to be worthwhile as we managed to reach a consensus on the content of the agreement.

As we enforce this new Safety Agreement between the prefecture and seven municipalities in a mutual trust-based fashion, we seek to further ensure the safety and security of residents living in relevant communities.
