The radioactive substance <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/tritium" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>tritium</span></a> remains in the water even after the purification process. In June, China, which completely stopped importing Japanese seafood, resumed production in 37 prefectures, but Fukushima and other ten prefectures are still not eligible. There is no end to the ocean release, and the impact of the nuclear accident on the fishing industry continues.</p><p>"Tank treated water and contaminated water have been reduced by only fifty-six thousand tons.</p><p>"The ocean release was first released on August 24th, and the 14th time was launched on August 7th this month. Up to the 13th time, a total of one hundred and eighty-seven tons of treated water were released.</p><p>"The treated water and contaminated water stored in a tank on the site of the nuclear power plant before it was released into the ocean. So far, it has decreased to about fifty-six thousand tons, and it has not decreased by much the amount of release. The reason is that the contaminated water is generated about seventy tons every day, and the number of groundwater and rainwater increases due to the contact of molten nuclear fuel (debris) in the reactor building. Without the absence of contaminated water, we cannot stop releasing it into the ocean.</p><p>"As of July 30th, TEPCO paid about JPY790 billion in compensation in response to the slump in fish prices associated with ocean release. There is a possibility that some of China's resumption of imports will also change the price of fish, but Fukushima Prefecture continues to be stopped.</p><p>"37 Export application procedures for fishery products produced in Hokkaido Prefecture have begun. A person in charge of the processing and distribution section of the Fisheries Agency said, 'There are many applications, and the desire to resume is strong. We will continue to work with China to reopen the ten prefectures.'

The treated water stored in the nuclear power plant is gradually reduced by ocean release, while the storage and disposal of sludge contaminated with high concentrations that continue to occur in the process of treatment of contaminated water is becoming an issue.</p><p>"In the process of removing radioactive substances from contaminated water, sludge is produced by precipitating impurities with chemicals.

After the accident, to minimize residents' exposure to radiation, soil tainted with radioactive cesium underwent a decontamination process and was removed. Approximately 14 million cubic meters of it was collected in Fukushima Prefecture.</p><p>Q: What has happened to all that soil?</p><p>A: It is currently stored in an "interim storage facility," stretching across the prefectural towns of Futaba and Okuma, adjacent to the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station. The facility in this area, which used to house about 2,700 residents before the accident, was developed by the national government through land purchases and leases. The law promises that the contaminated soil stored there will undergo final disposal outside the prefecture sometime before 2045. To reduce the volume for final disposal, the plan is to use about three-quarters of it for purposes such as road embankments.</p><p>Q: Is it safe to use the removed soil?</p><p>A: The Ministry of the Environment has set the standard for reusing soil at "a concentration of radioactive cesium of 8,000 becquerels or less per kilogram." This standard has been deemed appropriate by domestic and international expert organizations. The government intends to handle the soil in accordance with international standards to minimize the radiation impact on construction workers and nearby residents. However, since this is an unprecedented endeavor, some experts are concerned about whether it can be managed over a long period without affecting the surrounding area.</p><p>Q: Can this really be achieved in 20 years?</p><p>A: Even the demonstration project for reuse planned by the Environment Ministry in locations including Tokyo's Shinjuku Ward has not progressed, and it is uncertain whether destinations for reuse or final disposal will be found. Additionally, a national survey revealed that about 80% of people outside Fukushima Prefecture are unaware of this "promise." The government needs to intensify efforts to raise awareness of the contaminated soil issue, especially among people outside Fukushima Prefecture."</p><p>Source:<br><a href="https://mainichi.jp/articles/20250405/ddm/003/070/086000c" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">mainichi.jp/articles/20250405/</span><span class="invisible">ddm/003/070/086000c</span></a><br> <br><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/FukushimaIsntOver" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>FukushimaIsntOver</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/RethinkNotRestart" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>RethinkNotRestart</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/NoNukes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NoNukes</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/NoNukesForAI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NoNukesForAI</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/TEPCOLies" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>TEPCOLies</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/JapanGovernment" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>JapanGovernment</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/RadioactiveSoil" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>RadioactiveSoil</span></a></p>

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" 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.
