Ministry of the Environment and local govs consider to give up current desired radiation level after decontamination

 

 

Ministry of the Environment and the local governments are considering to give up the current desired radiation level after decontamination because it’s overly difficult to achieve.

The current desired level is 0.23 μSv/h. However some of the local governments have been requesting Ministry of the Environment to raise it to be “the more realistic level”.

Ministry of the Environment considers to raise it to be 0.4 ~ 0.6 μSv/h, which is 2 ~ 3 times much as now. However they state the additional annual dose can be less than 1 mSv for some reason.

 

The internal exposure dose, which is more serious than external exposure, has never been reviewed.

Le ministère de l’Environnement et les municipalités envisagent de laisser tomber le niveau actuel de radioactivité après décontamination

 

 

Le ministère de l’Environnement et les municipalités envisagent d’abandonner le niveau de radioactivité désiré après décontamination parce que c’est trop difficile à réaliser.
Le niveau actuellement visé est de 0,23 μSv/h et certaines municipalités ont demandé au ministère de l’Environnement de le relever “à un niveau plus réaliste”.
Le ministère de l’Environnement envisage de le porter entre 0,4 et 0.6 μSv/h, ce qui est entre 2 et 3 fois plus qu’actuellement. Ils affirment néanmoins que la dose annuelle additionnelle peut rester en-dessous de 1 mSv, sans préciser.

La dose d’exposition interne, qui est plus grave que l’irradiation externe, n’a jamais été revue.

    The following is selected from a speech by Dr. Vladimir Chernousenko, former head of the Ukrainian Academy of Science, and the lead investigator of the Chernobyl clean up, at a briefing of Texas officials organized by the Foundation for a Compassionate Society and co-sponsored by WEDO (Women’s Environment and Development Organization) in February 1994 in Austin.

    In my brief statement I (will) attempt to answer from the point of view of modern science several questions. First, “Have the discoveries (in radioactivity) over the (last 50) years made our lives happy and safe? And I would also like to (ask) the question, “Can the women of.. the United States feel safe even though these accidents may occur quite a distance away?” And last,… “Does the atomic industry, which is such a hazardous industry, have a right to exist?”

    I would like to address the question of whether it’s possible to feel safe in America when there are catastrophes occurring in Germany and Russia. Unfortunately the answer is “no.”

    Now I would like to address the question of whether it’s possible to feel safe in America when there are catastrophes occurring in Germany and Russia. Unfortunately the answer is “no.” Because an accident which happens tens of thousands of kilometers away will necessarily fall out on people in other parts of the world. So (our) conclusion (is) that every day that these hazardous industries are in existence brings closer the end of our civilization. ‘Mat means that we must stop this nuclear madness if we want to continue to exist…

  2. ‘Chernobyl: The True Story by Dr. Vladimir Chernousenko’

    The following is selected from a speech by Dr. Vladimir Chernousenko, former head of the Ukrainian Academy of Science, and the lead investigator of the Chernobyl clean up, at a briefing of Texas officials organized by the Foundation for a Compassionate Society and co-sponsored by WEDO (Women’s Environment and Development Organization) in February 1994 in Austin.

    Question: What was the number – in the area directly downwind – what was the percentage of children who remained healthy?

    That’s zero.

    Question: Right after Chernobyl, we had a large public relations campaign by the nuclear industry, and what they were saying was that a similar accident could not happen in this country because commercial nuclear reactors are surrounded by concrete protection.

    We’ve discussed this in Germany, in England, and in America. It is true that the nuclear blocks in those places are surrounded by concrete containment. This was done, for example, to keep an airplane from failing on the heads of people who work at the facility. The force of the explosion at Chernobyl exceeded the protective capabilities of this containment by at least ten-fold. And Dr. Rosalie Bertell, who participated in the investigation of the accident at Three Mile Island, can tell you, if a miracle hadn’t occurred, and the hydrogen bubble within that containment hadn’t dissipated, the accident within the United States would be comparable to the accident at Chernobyl. And the containment wouldn’t have been able to protect from these dangers.

    1. As I’m sure you are aware, the chernobyl disaster was not caused by poor reactor design (although it could have been better). It is also completely rubbish to dismiss the containment issue. No doubt the disaster would have been less severe if containment had been planned from the start. The chernobyl disaster was caused by operators purposefully deactivating safety equipment to perform a test (which they were not fully clued in on) and operating the reactor in a regieme which was explicitly not allowed in the test criteria.
      ie, human error.
      Have we learned anything? probably not, but reactors have containment around them these days since we know they can go wrong (basically unthinkable for the russian operators prior to chernobyl). But I am getting a bit tired of your incessant lies and mistruths. You’re nothing but a lying fuck paid to spread shitty rumours. Im not saying nuclear power is safe, but you are promoting a myopic view of engineering which you pretend to understand, and know enough about so you can fool most of the other blog readers. But not me, Mr Shill Duff, so please take your shit and post it elsewhere, maybe a blog about hoaxed moon landings.

      1. The Fukushima Disaster is characterized by failure:

        Failed plant location selection, preparation & maintenance
        Failed seismic and tsunami construction
        Failed Primary Heat Sink
        Failed reactor piping in FDU-1
        Failed Venting and Venting water filtration 3X
        Failed reactor via meltdown 3X
        Failed Metal Containment Shell 3X
        Failed Concrete Containment 3X
        Failed Public Warning System 3X
        Failed Public evacuation and personal decontamination X100,000,000
        Failed Public Health distribution of anti-radiation meds X 100,000,000
        Failed regional decontamination
        Failed national nuclear insurance & compensation
        Failed criminal prosecution of the guilty

        Fukushima is the most extensive cockup in human history

        1. Bill Duff is characterized by lies and hyperbole:

          Failed plant location selection, preparation & maintenance
          debatable.

          Failed seismic and tsunami construction
          Constructed to a specified tolerance. worked fine up to tolerance.

          Failed Primary Heat Sink
          True

          Failed reactor piping in FDU-1
          Citation needed. What looks like a possible crack in a video is not the same as ‘failed’. could easily be cracked and flaking paint.

          Failed Venting and Venting water filtration 3X
          Successful venting took place several times. exaggeration.

          Failed reactor via meltdown 3X
          Agreed

          Failed Metal Containment Shell 3X
          No supporting evidence. Seems likely.

          Failed Concrete Containment 3X
          No supporting evidence. Plausable on one reactor. Citation absolutely needed.

          Failed Public Warning System 3X
          I heard about it before the second explosion… citation needed.

          Failed Public evacuation and personal decontamination X100,000,000
          Evacuation took place. citation needed. exaggeation and hyperbole

          Failed Public Health distribution of anti-radiation meds X 100,000,000
          Citation needed.

          Failed regional decontamination
          Citation needed. Its early days still.

          Failed national nuclear insurance & compensation
          Ive heard of many payouts. citation needed. definition of failure absolutely required.

          Failed criminal prosecution of the guilty
          Case closed, is it? citation needed.

          Fukushima is the most extensive cockup in human history
          No, your research practices and lousy conclusions are.

          1. A lot of that citation you are requesting
            is already here on this site.

            A search can reveal a lot within a site.
            Try it. Go ahead. Give ‘er a go. By all means. Whaddarya waiting for, wicker?

    2. Having discussed the accident at length with some of the engineers who performed clean up work on TMI I can say without any doubt that you, mr shill duff, are nothing but a lying little fuck.

      1. And I quote:

        ‘Chernobyl: The True Story by Dr. Vladimir Chernousenko’

          1. Niall the stupid fuckface.

            We have clarified, that you are calling: the late Dr. Vladimir Chernousenko, former head of the Ukrainian Academy of Science, and the lead investigator of the Chernobyl clean up; a liar.

            Carry on, loser

            1. No, i was referring to him citing crackpot Dr. Rosalie Bertell, better known for her crusade against chemtrails, HAARP deat rays and 911 conspiracy theories.

              1. Niall the braindead liar,

                We are not particularly interested in which particular ‘Team Nuke’ lies are spewed by Niall the ‘Team Nuke Puke’.

                Broken clocks are accurate one (24-hour) or two (12-hour) times per day. And occasionally, stupid, lying, ignorant ‘Team Nuke Pukes’ raise an issue of some general interest.

                The quotes from the late Dr. Vladimir Chernousenko, former head of the Ukrainian Academy of Science, and the lead investigator of the Chernobyl clean up; arise from earlier rantings of ‘Niall the Team Nuke Puke’.

                It is doubtful that EXTENSIVE Quoting of Dr. Chernousenko were expected in response to those rants.

  3. ‘Chernobyl: The True Story by Dr. Vladimir Chernousenko’

    I would like to inform you about the scientific data that have been gathered about exposure to radiation. We have conducted studies of the regions around 20 different nuclear plants in my country. In all of these territories we noticed an increase in the breast cancer rate—sometimes an increase of 15% over the normal level. We noticed a growth of anemia amongst children who lived in those areas, cardiovascular diseases, and cataracts. So from this you can conclude that even without the explosion of nuclear weapons there is quite a bit of danger to human lives.

    For many years we (believed) that this is the most safe and ecological industry. But as a result of an accident of only one reactor…, an amount of radionuclides was emitted which is comparable to that… emitted from all the detonations of nuclear weapons and nuclear tests. So … the statement that it is the most environmentally safe industry is not true. As a result of an accident at only one reactor, over 65 million people in my country were affected. And for at least the next 15 years, there will be radioactive fallout all over the globe.

    1. he’s your latest crush. got quite a boner for him dont you, considering you keep posting the same extract everywhere. shill, liar, and now spammer too.

      1. Make up your ‘mind’; (‘mind’ used charitably)

        You begged for, and demanded Dr. Vladimir Chernousenko.

        Now enjoy!

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.
