Japan Moves Closer to Restart of Nuclear Plant 01 Jun 2012 Japan’s prime minister has said he may order the restart of one of the nation’s idled nuclear plants as early as next week, as local leaders around the plant on Thursday signaled their willingness to drop opposition to the restart. Prime Minister Yoshihiko Noda has scrambled in recent weeks to persuade local leaders to allow the restart of two reactors at the Ohi nuclear plant. They would be the first two of Japan’s 50 functional commercial reactors to go back online after last year’s accident at the Fukushima Daiichi plant.
