A RADIOACTIVE water leak has halted plans to restart a reactor at a nuclear power plant in western Japan, which would have been the fourth to come online after a nationwide shutdown, its operator said on Sunday.
Kansai Electric Power said that some 34 litres of cooling water containing radioactive substances leaked out from the reactor at its Takahama plant 380 kilometres west of Tokyo.
