Tepco actually did one job well
Tepco (Tokyo Electric Power Company) safely removed the radioactive fuel from the most vulnerable of the four heavily damaged reactor buildings at Fukushima. They were able to successfully remove 1,500 fuel rods from the reactor No. 4 building, which was gutted in the March 2011 disaster. There was a great degree of risk in doing so. The company's clean-up record prior to the removal has been poor. Now they will soon start on the rods in the other three reactor buildings; it is expected this will take decades and is as risk prone as No. 4.
