Workers in protective suits and masks wait to enter the emergency operation center at the crippled Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear power station in Okuma, Japan. Tokyo Electric Power Co., the utility that runs the Fukushima Dai-ichi plant that melted down in March 2011 after being hit by a tsunami, is finding that it can barely meet the headcount of workers required to keep the three broken reactors cool while fighting power outages and leaks of tons of radiated water, said current and former nuclear plant workers and others familiar with the situation at Fukushima.

Members of a Fukushima prefecture panel inspect the construction of a shore barrier that is meant to stop radioactive water from leaking into the sea near the No. 1 and No. 2 reactor building of the tsunami-crippled Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant.

Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, wearing a protective suit and mask, is briefed about tanks containing radioactive water by Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant chief Akira Ono as they stand near a tank that is being dismantled after it leaked contaminated water. During Abe’s tour of the Tokyo Electric Power Company’s tsunami crippled plant in Fukushima prefecture, Japan, he was shown tanks, water treatment equipment and a chemical dam being installed along the coast - steps meant to contain the water leakage. Abe has ordered the scrapping of two nuclear reactors that survived the 2011 tsunami, a writeoff that threatens to complicate a turnaround plan the operator has presented to creditors.
