JP Gov officially admit they concealed the worst senario though they assumed it

 

On 1/29, Minister of environment, Hosono Goshi answered in the interview of Kyodo to admit they concealed the worst senario of Fukushima accident.

After 311, they limited the access to the worst senario such as Kan Japanese prime minister etc.. Only a few people could know what they assume to be the worst.
Hosono tells, The worst senario was unrealistic. If they announced after 311, nobody might have remained in Tokyo. If so, they could not settle it down Fukushima accident.

It is not explained why they couldn’t settle it down if nobody remained in Tokyo. It is not explained why they assumed the “unrealistic” senario either.

最悪シナリオ閲覧「数人」に限定 「混乱恐れて」と細野氏
2012年1月29日 16時34分
細野原発事故担当相は29日までに、共同通信のインタビューに応じ、最近まで公開しなかった東京電力福島第1原発事故の「最悪シナリオ」に関し、情報漏えいによる国内の混乱を恐れて、当時の菅直人首相はじめ閲覧を「数人」に限った経緯を明らかにした。
その上で「シナリオの内容は現実にあり得ないもの。当時公開していたら、東京から人がいなくなった可能性があった。そうなれば、事故対応は危うかった」と言明。事故対応を優先した結果、菅氏ら政権中枢のごく一部の政治家でしか情報共有を図らなかったと説明した。

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.
