FTC proposes new rule to ban junk fees, potentially saving consumers 'tens of billions'_我的网站

A | 8月24日消息,据新华社报道,截至本月24日,日本东京电力公司福岛第一核电站核污染水排放满三年,迄今共进行了22轮核污染水排放,累计排放量约17.3万吨。 The Federal Trade Commission is proposing a new rule that seeks to eliminate junk fees -- those hidden costs that can unexpectedly push up prices consumers pay at checkout.The proposed rule would apply to many industries across the economy, including event tickets, hotels and apartment rentals. If the rule goes into effect, companies that continue to charge these fees could be fined and forced to pay back consumers.The FTC says the far-reaching rule could save consumers “tens of billions of dollars in fees.”“The proposed rule would prohibit corporations from running up the bills with hidden and bogus fees, requiring honest pricing and spurring firms to compete on honesty rather than deception,” FTC Chair Lina Khan said on a call with reporters.The FTC estimates the proposed rule will save consumers more than 50 million hours per year of wasted time spent searching for the total price in live ticketing and short-term lodging alone. This time savings is equivalent to more than $10 billion over the next decade.There will be a 60-day public comment period once the rule is published in the Federal Register.Senior administration officials, however, did not have guidance on when the rule could be finalized and go into effect.The FTC has the authority to move forward with this rule without additional approval from Congress, officials said.As President Biden continues his push of “Bidenomics” and focuses on the everyday costs that hit American pocketbooks, this is another chance for the president to try to appeal to voters about his economic message. He’s repeatedly highlighted his administration's efforts to tackle these junk fees across a number of sectors -- from air travel to health care.Separately, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau is issuing guidance to large banks and credit unions, prohibiting them from charging customers fees for basic information about their accounts, like checking their bank account balance.The CFPB also released a new report showing its crackdown on bounced check fees has saved consumers nearly $2 billion since 2021.。 按照东电公开数据,截至本月13日,福岛第一核电站厂区储罐内依旧留存核污染水约123.5万吨,储罐存量对比排海启动之初仅下降约8%。 出现这种情况的核心原因是,核电站地下持续渗入雨水与地下水,源源不断生成新的核污染水,一边向外排海,一边不断产生新废水,导致储罐水位下降速度远慢于实际排海规模。

B | 东京电力公司的报废计划显示,核污染水排海工作将一直持续到2051年反应堆报废完成,整个排海周期长达二十余年。 每一轮排海排放量基本维持在7800吨左右,第22轮排海于8月17日结束,共计排放7888吨核污染水,内含氚约1.3万亿贝克勒尔。 三年来,日本国内渔业群体的反对立场始终没有改变,日本全国渔业协会联合会多次公开表态,在没有获得渔业从业者充分理解的前提下,核污染水排海行为不能被接受。 受核污染水排海影响,水产品相关索赔不断增加,截至今年8月初,东电已经针对约1100件渔业相关索赔,支付赔偿金合计928亿日元。
