Measures to prevent the discharge of contaminated water into the ocean include A) Groundwater leakage prevention by a steel water barrier on the sea-side and B) Pumping up of groundwater dammed up behind the sea-side water barrier from the well points and groundwater drains. Due to these measures, the volume of contaminated water discharged, 540m3/day in May 2014, fell to 80m3/day in FY2023, and was below 100m3/day in FY2024.</p><p>"In the reduction of the toxicity of contaminated water, cesium and strontium are removed, and after the removal of impurities using a reverse osmosis (RO) membrane, the multi-radionuclide removal equipment (ALPS – Advanced Liquid Processing System) then removes 62 radionuclides [NOT COMPLETELY!!!]. The water is then stored in tanks (containing 1,297,190m3 as of January 30, 2025. However, due to past equipment <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/malfunctions" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>malfunctions</span></a> and operational policies, around 64% of the stored water exceeds the notification concentration). </p><p>"Oceanic release of the ALPS-treated contaminated water began on August 24, 2023, a total of 78,285m3 being released in ten batches by January 2025. Table 2 shows the amounts released in each release and the total amount of tritium released. The concentration is gradually rising. One further release is scheduled during FY2024. In addition, roughly 15,720m3 of water remain in buildings, and a further 8,946m3 of strontium-treated water, etc., 5,644m3 of water treated by RO, and 9,463m3 of concentrated wastewater, etc. also exist onsite."</p><p>Read more:<br><a href="https://cnic.jp/english/?p=8272" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">cnic.jp/english/?p=8272</span><span class="invisible"></span></a><br><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/FukushimaIsntOver" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FukushimaIsntOver</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/WaterIsLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WaterIsLife</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/PacificOcean" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PacificOcean</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/TEPCOLies" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TEPCOLies</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/FukushimaNuclear" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FukushimaNuclear</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/RethinkNotRestart" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RethinkNotRestart</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/RadioactiveContamination" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RadioactiveContamination</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/HormesisIsBullShit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>HormesisIsBullShit</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Bioaccumulation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Bioaccumulation</span></a></p>

The decontamination efforts in residential and agricultural areas across Fukushima Prefecture resulted in the collection of approximately 14 million cubic meters of contaminated soil. This soil has been transported to interim storage facilities built in the towns of <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Futaba" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Futaba</span></a> and <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Okuma" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Okuma</span></a>, where the power plant is located.</p><p>"Local communities only agreed to the construction of these facilities on the condition that the soil would eventually be disposed of outside the prefecture. By law, final disposal must be completed by March 2045, 30 years after storage began. To meet this deadline, the Japanese government held a meeting involving all Cabinet members late last year. The goal is to draft a concrete timeline for disposal by this summer.</p><p>"The government has also proposed reusing soil with radiation levels below a certain threshold. The plan envisions using the soil for public projects across the country, including road embankments and <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/farmland" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>farmland</span></a> development.</p><p>"In Fukushima Prefecture, pilot projects are underway to confirm that reusing the soil is safe. In September 2024, the International Atomic Energy Agency (<a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/IAEA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>IAEA</span></a>) concluded that the government's plan complies with its safety standards. However, scientific assurances on safety alone have not been enough to advance the plan. Concerns about potential health risks and local reputational damage remain unresolved.</p><p>"In 2022, the Ministry of the Environment attempted to reuse the soil at three facilities it manages, including Shinjuku Gyoen National Garden in Tokyo, but the plan was derailed by strong opposition from residents. To this day, there is no clear timeline for implementation.</p><p>"Additionally, about a quarter of the removed soil is still too highly contaminated to be reused. This portion will require final disposal outside Fukushima Prefecture, but no schedule or location has been determined.</p><p>"Public understanding of the issue remains insufficient. A December 2023 survey conducted by the Ministry of the Environment revealed that over 70% of people outside Fukushima Prefecture were unaware of the plans for reusing or disposing of the soil.</p><p>"The electricity generated by the Fukushima Daiichi plant was primarily consumed in metropolitan areas, especially the Tokyo region. Dealing with the waste soil is a responsibility that must be acknowledged by those who benefited from that power.</p><p>"Meanwhile, the decommissioning of the plant is behind schedule, and those displaced from their hometowns around it are growing increasingly anxious. It is the government's responsibility to urgently present a clear path forward to address the aftermath of the nuclear disaster."</p><p>Source:<br><a href="https://www.msn.com/en-xl/science/environmental-science/editorial-unresolved-disposal-of-fukushima-nuke-disaster-soil-a-barrier-to-full-recovery/ar-BB1rg7Dt" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">msn.com/en-xl/science/environm</span><span class="invisible">ental-science/editorial-unresolved-disposal-of-fukushima-nuke-disaster-soil-a-barrier-to-full-recovery/ar-BB1rg7Dt</span></a> <br><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/TEPCOLies" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TEPCOLies</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/IAEALies" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>IAEALies</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/NuclearPowerCorruptionAndLies" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NuclearPowerCorruptionAndLies</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/RethinkNotRestart" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RethinkNotRestart</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/NoNukes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NoNukes</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Bioaccumulation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Bioaccumulation</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/NuclearPollution" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NuclearPollution</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/NuclearContamination" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NuclearContamination</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Japan" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Japan</span></a></p>

DoomsdaysCW<p>From Detailedpedia: Discharge of radioactive water of the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant</p><p>Last updated at 2024-08-21</p><p>"Discharge to ocean, treated water</p><p>Advanced Liquid Processing System (2013–)</p><p>"To prevent the reactor meltdowns from worsening, a continuous supply of new water is necessary to cool the melted fuel debris. As of 2013, 400 metric tonnes of water was becoming radioactively contaminated each day. The contaminated water is pumped out and combined into the reactor-cooling loop, which includes strontium–cesium removal (KURION, SURRY) and reverse osmosis desalination processes.</p><p>"In October 2012, TEPCO introduced the "Advanced Liquid Processing System" (ALPS, Japanese: 多核種除去設備), which is designed to remove radionuclides other than tritium and carbon-14. ALPS works by first pre-processing the water by iron coprecipitation (removes alpha nuclides and organics) and carbonate coprecipitation (removes alkali earth metals including strontium elements). The water is then passed through 16 absorbent columns to remove nuclides.</p><p>"Wastewater is pumped to ALPS along with the concentrated saltwater from desalination. As some tritium still remains, even treated water would require dilution to meet drinkable standards. Although carbon-14 is not removed, the content in pre-treatment water is low enough to meet drinkable standards without dilution.</p><p>"Japan's Nuclear Regulation Authority (NRA) approved the design of ALPS in March 2013. ALPS is to be run in three independent units and will be able to purify 250 tons of water per day. Unit "A" started operation in April. In June, unit A was found to be leaking water and shut down. In July, the cause was narrowed down to chloride and hypochlorite corrosion of water tanks; TEPCO responded by adding a rubber layer into the tanks. By August, all systems were shut down awaiting repair. One unit was expected to come online by September, with full recovery planned by the end of 2013.</p><p>"By September 2018, TEPCO reports that 20% of the water had been treated to the required level.</p><p>"By 2020, the daily buildup of contaminated water was reduced to 170 metric tonnes thanks to groundwater isolation installations. TEPCO reports that 72% of the water in its tanks, some from early trials of ALPS, needed to be <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/repurified" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>repurified</span></a>. The portion of ready-to-discharge water raised to 34% by 2021, and to 35% by 2023.</p><p>"Some scientists expressed reservations due to potential <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/bioaccumulation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bioaccumulation</span></a> of <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ruthenium" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ruthenium</span></a>, <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/cobalt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>cobalt</span></a>, <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/strontium" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>strontium</span></a>, and <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/plutonium" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>plutonium</span></a>, which sometimes slip through the ALPS process and were present in 71% of the tanks. </p><p>[...]</p><p>"Ferenc Dalnoki-Veress, a scientist-in-residence at the Middlebury Institute of International Studies at Monterey, said regarding dilution that bringing in living creatures makes the situation more complex.

Nations in the Asia Pacific region, led by the Pacific Island Forum, have strongly voiced their opposition to the plans. Some of the world’s leading oceanographic institutes and marine scientists have criticised the weakness of the scientific justification applied by <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/TEPCO" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TEPCO</span></a>, the owner of the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/NuclearPlant" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NuclearPlant</span></a>, warned against using the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/PacificOcean" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PacificOcean</span></a> as a <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/DumpingGround" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DumpingGround</span></a> for radioactive contaminated water, and called for alternatives to discharge to be applied.</p><p>“'The Japanese government is desperate for international endorsement for its Pacific Ocean radioactive water dump plans. It has failed to protect its own citizens, including the vulnerable fishing communities of Fukushima, as well as nations across the wider <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/AsiaPacific" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AsiaPacific</span></a> region. The aftermath of the nuclear disaster at Fukushima is still strongly felt, and the Japanese government has failed to fully investigate the effects of discharging multiple <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/radionuclides" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>radionuclides</span></a> on <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/MarineLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MarineLife</span></a>. The government is obligated under international law to conduct a comprehensive environmental impact assessment, including the impact of transboundary marine pollution, but has failed to do so. Its plans are a violation of the UN Convention Law of the Sea.</p><p>"'The marine environment is under extreme pressure from <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ClimateChange" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ClimateChange</span></a>, <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/overfishing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>overfishing</span></a> and <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ResourceExtraction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ResourceExtraction</span></a>. Yet, the G7 thinks it’s acceptable to endorse plans to deliberately dump nuclear waste into the ocean. Politics inside the G7 at Sapporo just trumped science, environmental protection, and international law,' said Shaun Burnie, Senior Nuclear Specialist at Greenpeace East Asia.</p><p>"'<a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/GreenpeaceEastAsia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GreenpeaceEastAsia</span></a> analysis has detailed the failures of liquid waste processing [ALPS] technology at the Fukushima Daiichi plant and the environmental threats posed by the releases. There is no prospect of an end to the nuclear crisis at the plant as current decommissioning plans are not feasible. Furthermore, the report finds the nuclear fuel debris in the reactors cannot be completely removed and will continue to contaminate the ground water over many decades. Claims that the discharges will take 30 years is inaccurate as in reality, it will continue into the next century. Viable alternatives to discharge, specifically long term storage and processing, have been ignored by the Japanese government.</p><p>"'The Japanese government’s attempt to normalise the Fukushima nuclear disaster is directly linked to its overall energy policy objective of increasing the operation of nuclear reactors again after the 2011 disaster. 54 reactors were available in 2011 compared to only ten reactors in 2022, generating 7.9% of the nation’s electricity in FY21 compared to 29% in 2010. Meanwhile, five of the other six G7 governments led by France, the US and the UK are also aggressively promoting nuclear power development. </p><p>"'The idea that the nuclear industry is capable of delivering a safe and sustainable energy future is delusional and a dangerous distraction from the only viable energy solution to the climate emergency which is 100% <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/RenewableEnergy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RenewableEnergy</span></a>. The global growth of low cost renewable energy has been phenomenal – but it has to be much faster and at an even greater scale if carbon emissions are to be reduced by 2030. Approval for nuclear waste dumping and nuclear energy expansion sound like the 1970’s but we have no time for such distractions. We are in a race to save the climate in the 21st century, and only renewables can deliver this,' said Shaun Burnie. </p><p><a href="https://www.greenpeace.org/international/press-release/59193/science-environmental-protection-international-law-g7-japans-fukushima-water-discharge/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">greenpeace.org/international/p</span><span class="invisible">ress-release/59193/science-environmental-protection-international-law-g7-japans-fukushima-water-discharge/</span></a> </p><p><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/FukushimaAnniversary" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FukushimaAnniversary</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/FukushimaIsntOver" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FukushimaIsntOver</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/RethinkNotRestart" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RethinkNotRestart</span></a><br><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/NoNukes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NoNukes</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Japan" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Japan</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/TEPCOLies" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TEPCOLies</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/WaterIsLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WaterIsLife</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Bioaccumulation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Bioaccumulation</span></a></p>
