Japan plans to recycle contaminated Fukushima soil in construction, facing resistance from potential host locations.
After the 2011 Fukushima nuclear disaster, Japan collected and stored vast amounts of contaminated soil.
The government plans to recycle this soil in construction projects outside Fukushima, but finding willing locations has been difficult.
Around 75% of the soil has a radioactivity level equivalent to or less than one X-ray per year, and the environment ministry recommends using sealing materials to contain radioactivity.
Despite promises to move the soil by 2045, some local officials suggest it may need to remain in Fukushima.
