FLOODS IN JAPAN CARRY RADIATION FROM FUKUSHIMA

RECENT UNPRECEDENTED FLOODING GIVES FUKUSHIMA'S DAIICHI NUCLEAR PLANT A NEW EXCUSE FOR IRRADIATING THE ENTIRE PLANET.

I WONDER HOW BUSY WORKERS ARE THERE DURING THIS OPPORTUNITY TO DUMP ALL THEY CAN WHILE THEY CAN?


No end in sight – fresh heavy rain alerts have been issued. 



MAP OF AFFECTED AREA.
Japan is painfully exposed to sometimes destructive tropical storms every year.

The Tokyo Electric Power Co (Tepco) said contaminated water from the Daiichi plant had flowed into the ocean after rain swamped drainage pumps, but insisted that it had “no effect” on the sea. 

NO EFFECT ON THE SEA?!?
HOW INSANE A STATEMENT IS THAT?


IS THAT THE TRUE OPINION OF THOSE THE WORLD TRUSTS TO STOP THIS CONTINUAL LEAK?


NO MATTER HOW MUCH CONTAMINATED WATER FLOWS INTO THE PACIFIC, THESE CLOWNS DON'T SEE A PROBLEM, REALLY?


IF THAT IS INDEED HOW THEY SEE THIS, THEN IT'S NO WONDER THEY HAVE DONE SO VERY LITTLE TO END THE DAILY FLOW INTO OUR LARGEST OCEAN!


Since the triple meltdown at the plant in 2011, engineers pour water on the melted uranium fuel in the bottom of the three most damaged reactors to keep them from overheating. 

That generates 400 tons of radioactive water every day.

The aftermath of Typhoon Etau has also washed tons of radioactive water from the ruined Daiichi nuclear power plant into the Pacific.

WHAT THE NEWS ARTICLES ARE NOT SAYING IS HOW MUCH RADIOACTIVE WATER RUNOFF HAS AFFECTED LAND SURROUNDING THE DAIICHI NUCLEAR FACILITY.

WE ARE ALSO LEFT TO WONDER IF THE LEANING, SINKING REACTOR BUILDINGS WERE ADVERSELY AFFECTED BY SO MUCH FLOODING.

THIRDLY, WITH THE ROOF OFF ON REACTOR #1, HOW MUCH RADIOACTIVE WATER WAS ACTUALLY PASSED THROUGH THAT ONE UNIT ALONE INTO THE ENVIRONMENT THERE?
HOW COULD THEY MEASURE THAT? 
SINCE WE HAVE SEEN THAT THE REACTOR CORE HAS MELTED THROUGH THE CONTAINMENT VESSEL, HOW DID THE MONSOON RAIN FALLING IN THROUGH THE ROOF AFFECT THE AQUIFER BENEATH THE BUILDING?

SINCE JULY THIS YEAR, THE ROOF HAS BEEN OFF FOR EXTRACTION OF DEBRIS
FROM THE FUEL POOL IN #1.


"The removal of the cover is scheduled to be completed by the end of next year (2016). 
Tepco will then install equipment for handling the used fuel before strengthening the surrounding area for heavy machinery and rebuilding a new version of the cover. The entire process is planned to continue for about four years before the removal of used fuel actually begins."
FOUR MORE YEARS TO REBUILD AND STABILIZE.
FOUR MORE YEARS OF "PROBLEMS" AND FAILURES?

NO, NOT JUST FOUR!

THERE ARE NO PLANS TO BEGIN FUEL EXTRACTION UNTIL, AT BEST, 2021.
04 June 2015
Japan expects to start the retrieval of fuel debris from the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant in 2021, the executive director of the Nuclear Damage Compensation and Decommissioning Facilitation Corporation (NDF) said yesterday. Three of the plant's six reactors suffered core meltdowns in the March 2011 accident, leaving melted nuclear fuel debris on the floor of their containment vessels. 









COMPLACENCY CITED IN REPORT ON THE DISASTER

Sept. 3, 2015—The International Atomic Energy Agency has released its 
Report on the Fukushima Daiichi Accident, along with five technical volumes on the topic by international experts.
The report assesses the causes and consequences of the March 2011 accident at the Fukushima Daiichi plant in Japan. In the report, IAEA Director General Yukiya Amano said that “there can be no grounds for complacency about nuclear safety in any country.”  

COMPLACENCY IS STILL RAMPANT, OBVIOUSLY!
TEPCO HAD NO PLAN IN PLACE FOR SUCH FLOODING AT ITS FACILITIES.

QUITE FRANKLY, THEY JUST DON'T HAVE A PLAN, PERIOD, AND THE WORLD IS ACCEPTING THE  "JAPAN NO-PLAN" SCENARIO EVERY MURDEROUS DAY!

TO PROVE THEY WERE NEVER CONCERNED WITH RISK MANAGEMENT BEFORE, WE NEED ONLY READ THE END OF THAT ARTICLE.

"
The structure of NDF's risk management strategy is to be completed by 2017, he said.
In addition to fuel debris retrieval, the strategic plan will also include a policy for waste management involving storage, processing and disposal methods, he said.
NDF has reviewed international standards for waste management, he said, and the International Atomic Energy Agency's General Safety Requirements Part 5 and Specific Safety Requirements-5 are "important references". 

ONE OF THE COMPLAINTS OF SURVIVORS NEAR DAIICHI WAS THAT THERE WAS NO SUCH POLICY IN PLACE PRIOR TO THE TSUNAMI IN 2011!

THEY HAD TO BE "SCHOOLED" BY AMERICAN/INTERNATIONAL  STANDARDS BEFORE THEY REALIZED WHAT THEY HAD NOT DONE WAS WRONG?

RESIDENTS MISSING
Residents of Joso City, 34 miles north-east of Tokyo, were rescued from rooftops by Self-Defence Force helicopters. 

Hundreds of people are stranded and several pensioners are missing in what the Japan Meteorological Agency called an “unprecedented” downpour.

 Police said others have reportedly been buried under mud or swept away in cars and houses. 
Some areas received double the usual September rainfall in just 48 hours after tropical storm Etau swept across Japan’s main island of Honshu.

MEANWHILE, JAPAN TOLD RESIDENTS TO GO HOME TO EVACUATED CITY THAT STILL LIES WITHIN THE DANGER ZONE!

The Japanese government on Saturday lifted an evacuation order for the small town of Naraha, about 16 kilometers (10 miles) south of the crippled Fukushima Daiichi plant in Fukushima prefecture, Japan's Kyodo news agency reported.    
The town is within the 20-kilometer radius that the government evacuated after a March 2011 earthquake unleashed a tsunami that damaged reactors at the nuclear plant. The damage caused a series of meltdowns and a major release of radioactive material.
WHAT ARE WE DEALING WITH HERE?

HAS RADIATION DAMAGED THE LAST FEW VIABLE BRAIN CELLS IN THE MINDS OF THE JAPANESE GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS WHO ARE STOOPING TO THIS TO CONVINCE THE WORLD IT'S SAFE TO COME TO JAPAN FOR THE OLYMPICS IN 2020?   


BY 2020, HOW MANY WILL BE DYING OF FUKUSHIMA'S DEADLY GIFT...CANCER?  


THERE IS NO HOPE FOR SUCH PEOPLE AS THOSE WHO HAVE MADE THE DECISIONS BEFORE, DURING, AND AFTER THE TRIPLE MELTDOWNS IN JAPAN.

THE JAPANESE PEOPLE ARE GOVERNED BY LUNATICS WHO, OBVIOUSLY, DO NOT CARE ABOUT THE HEALTH OF THE PEOPLE OF JAPAN...OR OF PLANET EARTH.

I CAN ONLY IMAGINE TEPCO'S MOTTO:
"ONWARD, TO EXTINCTION! PROFITS ARE UP!"
