Maybe downwind or... [/quote] Heh. No, not really close. I worry about it sometimes. I think its just too expensive to provide electicity and other services to these tiny towns so there is a movement to close them down. There are many such places, this is happening all over Japan.

There are only 12 households left. This is a rural mountain village. Most of the peole here are very old. In fact, I'm the youngest left here. Its kind of sad but inevitable. They are consolidating these small communities to bigger places. You can stay if you want but there will be no more electricity, water, road care, etc. People get a little money to move, so I accepted.
Slowly the plants will be reclaim the site. It will be covered in green slowly, an abandoned and forgotten town. Most of the buildings are made poorly and will collapse in a few years. It is a sad and beautiful thing to think about.
