3070 Bq/m2 of strontium 90 was measured in Fukushima

 

3070 Bq/m2 of strontium 90 was measured in Okuma machi from the monitoring test of Fukushima prefecture.
They monitored the soil contamination of strontium from July to October. They measured strontium 90 in Nakadori, where Fukushima prefectural government is located, 62km away from Fukushima plants. It is proved that strontium 90 flew out of the 20km area too. The highest reading was 3070 Bq/m2 in Okuma machi, where is 3km away from Fukushima plants.
Okuma machi local government assumes plutonium reached their own town too.

 

福島県が6日発表した土壌の放射線モニタリング調査(昨年7~10月)結果で、浜通りと中通りでストロンチウム90の沈着量の増加が確認され、福島第1原発事故により、半径20キロの警戒区域を越えて広範囲に飛び散ったことが分かった。最高値は、原発から約3キロの大熊町夫沢で検出した1平方メートル当たり3070ベクレルだった。沈着量の分析から大熊町ではプルトニウムも事故の影響で増えたと結論づけた。

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.
