                    TOKYO, Japan - Work is underway to remove fuel rods from the No. 3 reactor at Kyushu Electric Power Co.'s Genkai nuclear power plant in Genkai Town, Saga Prefecture, in March 2013. Japan did not include 640kg of unused plutonium in its annual report to the International Atomic Energy Agency in 2012 and 2013. The unreported plutonium is part of the MOX fuel which was loaded to the No. 3 reactor in March 2011 during its regular checkup but was removed unused in March 2013 as the reactor has remained idle since the Fukushima nuclear crisis.
