The low-level radioactive waste transportation for FY2016 was originally planned to be carried out in June this fiscal year, but Chubu Electric Power postponed the shipment (timing undetermined). This was a result of a failure in a ceiling crane, located in the low-level waste management building of Japan Nuclear Fuel Limited's Low-Level Radioactive Waste Disposal Center.
