One more tank leakage found / Tepco “No data for not bringing the proper survey meter”

Since they found the 300m3 leakage, Tepco has been investigating the leakage of other tanks.

On 9/2/2013, they found one more leakage in the South side of the 300m3 leakage area.

High level of radiation was detected near the flange part of the tank bottom. However, Tepco states “because they brought only the low range survey meter, they couldn’t detect the exactly radiation level”. It was at least over 100 mSv/h

Une fuite de citerne de plus / Tepco : “Pas de données pour ne pas avoir pris le bon compteur portable”

 

Tepco inspecte les autres citernes à la recherche des fuites depuis la découverte de celle des 300 m³ .

Le 2 septembre 2013, ils ont découvert une fuite de plus au sud de la zone des 300 m³.
Une radioactivité élevée a été relevée près de la partie du joint d’embase de la citerne. Néanmoins, Tepco affirme que “ils n’ont pas pu relever le niveau de radioactivité effectif parce qu’ils n’avaient pris qu’un compteur pour niveaux faibles”.
On était au minimum au dessus de 100 mSv/h

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.
