Sun, 16 Oct 2011 05:30:02 +0200 (Reuters) - The radioactive waste dump where used radiation protection suits are also disposed of is seen at J-village near the earthquake and tsunami-crippled Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant in Fukushima prefecture, in this handout photo taken October 11, 2011. Tokyo Electric Power Co (TEPCO) will ask lenders to maintain their 2 trillion yen ($26.03 billion) in financing for 10 years as it restructures and pays compensation related to the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant meltdown, the Nikkei said. Japan should be less conservative in cleaning up vast areas contaminated by radiation from the world's worst nuclear disaster since Chernobyl, a team of visiting U.N. nuclear experts said on Friday.
