Japan's Kansai Electric Power Company said an accident this week at its nuclear plant that killed four workers occurred in an area that was soon to be inspected for the first time in 28 years, and months after a warning of potential problems, according to Reuters.
Four workers were killed in Japan's deadliest nuclear industry accident when super-heated steam escaped from a ruptured pipe in a building housing turbines for a reactor at the Mihama nuclear power plant, 200 miles west of Tokyo.
