[What was attached?] 22,000 CPM on Concrete mixer from Fukushima plant without decontamination

On 6/29/2013, Tepco announced they accidentally let a concrete mixer truck go out of Fukushima nuclear plant area.

At 13:26, the truck left the area regardless of the order to decontaminate. They had detected 22,000 CPM near the upper part of the rear bumper.

The truck went to Naraha-machi to refill concrete. When it came back to the plant area, they detected 20,000 CPM on the same part of the truck.

The radiation level decreased by 2,000 CPM (22,000 – 20,000 CPM) but Tepco is still under investigation about the environmental impact.

The truck has already left the plant area after decontamination. Tepco reports the radiation level was decreased to be 3,000 CPM by decontamination.

[Qu’est-ce qui était collé ?] 22 000 CPM sur un camion bétonnière de la centrale de Fukushima sans décontamination

 

Le 29 juin 2013, Tepco annonce qu’ils ont accidentellement laissé un camion de béton sortir de la zone de la centrale nucléaire de Fukushima.

A 13:26, le camion à béton a quitté la zone sans tenir compte de l’ordre de décontamination. Ils ont relevé 22 000 CPM près de la partie supérieure du pare-choc arrière.
Le camion est allé à Naraha-machi pour refaire le plein de béton. Lorsqu’il est revenu dans la zone de la centrale, ils ont relevé 20 000 CPM au même endroit sur le camion.
Le niveau de radioactivité est descendu de 2 000 CPM (22 000 – 20 000 CPM) mais Tepco enquête toujours sur les impacts environnementaux.
Le camion avait déjà quitté la zone de la centrale après la décontamination. Tepco rapporte que le niveau de radioactivité était descendu à 3 000 CPM après la décontamination.

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.
