Kyoto Pref., Kansai Electric sign nuclear safety accord

(From L) Makoto Yagi, president of Kansai Electric Power Co., Keiji Yamada, governor of Kyoto Prefecture, and Ryozo Tatami, mayor of Maizuru in Kyoto Prefecture, pose for a photo after signing a trilateral nuclear safety accord at the Kyoto prefectural government offices on Feb. 27, 2015. The accord gives the two local governments more say over the utility's operation of nuclear reactors in nearby Fukui Prefecture and greater access to related information. The city of Maizuru is located less than 5 kilometers away from the Takahama nuclear plant in Fukui. (Kyodo) ==Kyodo
