The ground soil

(9~11.2012 → 12~2.2013)
River : 5,700 Bq/Kg → 14,200 Bq/Kg
Lake : 7,600 Bq/Kg → 8,200 Bq/Kg
Shore : 440 Bq/Kg → 780 Bq/Kg

 

The highest reading was 14,200 Bq/Kg from this research.

It was measured from the ground soil of Otsu river in Kashiwa city Chiba. In the last research of 9 ~ 11. 2012, the reading was 380 Bq/Kg. It jumped up by 3700%.

La radioactivité s’accumule dans les lacs et les fleuves autour de la région métropolitaine

 

Selon le MOE (Ministère de l’Environnement), le niveau de radioactivité du sol du fond des lacs et des rivières a augmenté depuis les dernières recherches entre septembre et novembre 2012 dans la région métropolitaine.

La radioactivité s'accumule dans les lacs et les fleuves autour de la région métropolitaine

Le sol du fond
(sept-nov 2012 → dec-fev 2013)
Fleuve : 5 700 Bq/kg → 14 200 Bq/kg
Lac : 7 600 Bq/kg → 8 200 Bq/kg
Rivage: 440 Bq/kg → 780 Bq/kg

Dans cette étude, le record est de 14 200 Bq/kg.
Il s’agit des relevés du sol du fond du fleuve Otsu dans la ville de Kashiwa à Chiba. Dans la dernière étude, en sept-nov 2012, les relevés étaient de 380 Bq/kg. C’est monté de 3 700 %.

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.
