Chubu Electric Power President Yasui Minoru (安井稔) met with Shizuoka Governor Suzuki Yasutomo (鈴木康友) in Shizuoka Prefecture, where the Hamaoka Nuclear Power Station is located, and indicated a shift in management policy in light of the seismic data misconduct. The policy was changed to allow media coverage at the outset following criticism from local stakeholders, and the company coordinated the arrangements again with the prefecture.
On the 2nd, Chubu Electric Power President Yasui Minoru (安井稔) met with Shizuoka Governor Suzuki Yasutomo (鈴木康友) at the Shizuoka Prefectural Government Office and said, "We will first create a system that demonstrates management's commitment to change." In connection with this, the policy initially calling for all proceedings to be private was changed to allow media coverage at the outset.
Yasui Minoru (安井稔) became president effective the 1st, and on the 2nd he visited Kikugawa City, near the Hamaoka Nuclear Power Station, where he also met with Mayor Hasegawa Hirohiko (長谷川寛彦). As with the meeting with the governor, the policy had initially been to keep the meeting private, but the city urged the company to revise it so that the opening remarks would be open to the press.
These developments are reportedly rooted in the prefecture's further adjustment of its policy following criticism from local stakeholders.
