A 16-member team from the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) began a weeklong mission Oct. 14 to assist in efforts to manage toxic waste caused by the radiation-leaking Fukushima No. 1 nuclear power plant.
The team, headed by Juan Carlos Lentijo, will remain until Oct. 21 and present a set of proposals to the government on how to make further progress in decontamination after inspecting decontamination sites.
It is the second time for an IAEA team to visit Japan since October 2011. (Kyodo)
