日本法院禁止啓動核反應堆
A court in Japan issued an injunction Tuesday blocking a power company from restarting two of its nuclear reactors.
Nuclear regulators had already cleared Kansai Electric Power to restart the No. 3 and No. 4 reactors at a plant in the western province of Fukui according to new standards put in place following the 2011 earthquake and tsunami at the Fukushima nuclear plant.
But residents challenged the plan to resume operations later this year, saying the new standards were not sufficient to protect against a powerful earthquake.
Kansai said it would appeal the ruling.日本一家法院星期二下達命令，不準一家電力公司重啓兩座核反應堆。
日本核管理機構本來已經批准關西電力公司按照2011年發生地震和海嘯後製定的新標準，重新啓動位於西部福井縣的第三號和第四號核反應堆。
但當地居民對今年晚些時候重新啓動核反應堆的計劃提出挑戰，認爲新標準不足以保護核反應堆在強烈地震中免受損壞。
關西電力說，該公司將對這一裁決提出申訴。
