Where should the massive amount of radioactive debris, soil and nuclear waste from the area around the Fushuma Daiichi nuclear power plant be stored?

Within the boundaries of Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant only.

I don't think the prefecture has enough storage space. There is nowhere to put millions of tons of debris, soil, wrecked cars, etc. This is why nuclear crisis minister Hosono made that controversial suggestion the other day about calling on all prefectures to do their bit and help with waste disposal. I think they will probably end up dumping a lot of waste at deep sea.

Can we get a list of viable choices?

I don't think the prefecture has enough storage space

if so, they should abandon the whole area/prefecture and can easily manage life in 46 prefectures.

North Korea?

I am for the within the exclusion zone too.

How dare you say North Korea, JapanGal, don't you think that those people are suffering enough. God bless them.

tepco's headquarters and every politician's and managerial level bureaucrat's backyard until a real solution can be found. bet they'd find one pretty fast too.

Use the areas which are already contaminated to a level which makes them unusable for agricultural purposes. This is not necessarily equivalent to the evacuation zone since the hotspots are not evenly distributed.

Let me see knowing this country they will probably use it as land fill and build a town or amusement park on it. In all seriousness they need to find an old quarry away from population and rivers and put it there lm sure that there would be such places somewhere in this country. Do not dump it near waterways though FFS.

According to the Japanese ministries it should be all over Japan. But since we are assured that it is safe all the time by TPTB shouldn't the politicians be willing to store it close to the gikai so that it can be inspected from time to time ?

It could even become a tourist destination in its own right!

Nuclear storage tours!

Kasumigaseki !!

dump them all on the disputed islands ( unpopulated ) in effect ending all ownership dispute since no one will want them after that.

@oberst

Some politicians might take you at your word!

Under Environment Minister's Goshi Hosono's house, right after it is relocated to the mountains near the ruined plants where the stuff should buried.

Hosono's neighbors shall be TEPCO execs and their LDP buddies who cut corners to save money.

Readers, please post sensible suggestions.

As oberst suggested above, Takeshima and the Senkaku Islands = Problem(s) solved.

Well it looks like 35 prectures have agreed to take on the radioactive contaminates for disposal and storage. But now the radioactive ash is a growing problem in at least 17 prefectures. For Fukushima though Kid Zania Co. has plans to build a Solar Energy Producing funhouse for kids right next to the NPP's no go zone. Which is completely crazy.
