elevations were set to look at a number of factors, including wind-driven waves, as well, sea level rise, and potential risk of tsunami. in addition, we have developed a geotechnical and seismic safety plan to reinforce the entirety of treasure island, both the perimeter as well as development areas. those development areas are being raised 36 inches, and an additional 6 inches to the finished floor elevation. the perimeter elevations have been set to accommodate up to 16 inches of steel level rise initially, and then there is a project generated funding mechanism which will be put in place as well as an adaptive management strategy and reporting program that tida would report on every five years. it would look at science and local conditions with respect to actual sea level rise, and then make recommendations for the types of improvements that would be made in the coming five years as well as funds collected in order to make those improvements. given that, we feel that we have a plan in place that provides protection both with respect to seismic risks, tsunami risks, and potential future sea level rise. supervisor mi

it would be sufficient for a tsunami and the government considers the preparations sufficient, but as we know, this level of preparedness turned out to be insufficient and particularly recently it has been discovered in the area of the recent disaster a massive earthquake hit 1,100 years ago and a tsunami large enough to flood areas far from the coastline also occurred. if the guidelines of the government have been more specific and better and had taken into consideration this massive tsunami, the situation could have been a lot different. >> the assumptions on earthquake and tsunami are about to be revised and what will be the focus from now on? >> because the 50 meter height tsunami hit, all of them should shift before the tsunami wave. however we have to study why we were not able to assume or predict this earthquake and this should be a thorough discussion by the experts, not only by atomic energy and the experts as well. however it's important to keep in mind that no matter how hard you make assumptions, there always assumptions and you should be prepared for that as well. the po

credit is that they are concerned about the larger than expected fallout of the earthquake and tsunami crisis. asout, certainly they're talking about policy. they're talking about a lack of consistent policy, and that lands squarely on the doorstep of japan's parliament. with all of this news that's happening. with all of this economic data we've seen over the last two months and even with this moody's possible downgrade, it doesn't appear that parliament is listening very closely. so that's really what people are saying from the outside. is japan listening to what economic data is saying what the economic experts are saying here? >> the economic data, bottom line here is japan has gone back into recession, as we know, and also the fact that, as you point out, simply a policy praralysis. how will this impact japan's future? >> reporter: there is a big hope right after the tsunami that the lack of decisive policy would actually turn around. remember, this is a country that in the last five years has seen six prime ministers, and so the hope was that all of the parliamentary members would get behin
