Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology decided to let school have swimming class outside this summer.

There are 660 of public elementary school, junior high school and high school in Fukushima. Though some of the schools quit swimming class by using pools outside last year, Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology told the board of education that using pools outside is not harmful this year.

As of April, the safety limit of tap water was changed from 200 Bq/L to 10 Bq/L.
文部科学省は福島県内の学校が今年の夏に屋外プールを利用して水泳の授業を行うことを許可しました。
福島県内には660の公立小中高校がありますが、去年の夏、いくつかの学校が屋外プールの利用を見送ったにもかかわらず、文部科学省が教育委員会にプールの利用を認めた形です。
水道水の基準値は4月から変更され、それまで200Bq/Lだったものが10Bq/Lになったのを踏まえたものです。

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.
