Because of legal individual exposure limits, including monthly, quarterly, and annual limits, they need lots of workers to cycle in and out of service. There is such an immense amount of work to do, that if you only have a limited number of workers, the amount of time the cleanup is going to take is only that much longer. Also, more workers will mean a lower average exposure to each worker. The work has to get done, so importing workers is perfectly legitimate here.

Actually a great opportunity for nuclear workers.

Not if you trust TEPCO's radiation total exposure calculations. Even the Japanese governments standing radiation meters placed out in the public, have been shown to under estimate the actual radiation levels.

Was going to post a link demonstrating that, but that site has been down the past few hours.
