Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology decided to quit fall-out report every weekend since now.

They explain, that is because the fall-out is in a decreasing trend, and we don’t see any remarkable change per day or hour.

They automatically continue the calculation in weekends too but they will not disclose it on time.

文科省、放射線量の公表 土日祝日休止
2012.1.5 21:13 [放射能漏れ]
文部科学省は、東京電力福島第1原発事故を受けて全国の都道府県の県庁所在地などで毎日測定、公表している放射線量について、今後は土日祝日の公表を休止することを決めた。

文科省は「原子炉からの放射性物質放出が減少しており、数値の時間変化が極めて小さくなったため」と説明している。測定自体は週末も自動で行っており、データは休日明けなどにまとめて同省のホームページに掲載する。また原発から北西約30キロの福島県浪江町のデータについては、1週間前後に1回の公表になるという。

About this site

This website updates the latest news about the Fukushima nuclear plant and also archives the past news from 2011. Because it's always updated and added live, articles, categories and the tags are not necessarily fitted in the latest format.
I am the writer of this website. About page remains in 2014. This is because my memory about 311 was clearer than now, 2023, and I think it can have a historical value. Now I'm living in Romania with 3 cats as an independent data scientist.
Actually, nothing has progressed in the plant since 2011. We still don't even know what is going on inside. They must keep cooling the crippled reactors by water, but additionally groundwater keeps flowing into the reactor buildings from the broken parts. This is why highly contaminated water is always produced more than it can circulate. Tepco is planning to officially discharge this water to the Pacific but Tritium is still remaining in it. They dilute this with seawater so that it is legally safe, but scientifically the same amount of radioactive tritium is contained. They say it is safe to discharge, but none of them have drunk it.
