Tepco manipulated estimate of the electricity consumption by 20%.

We didn’t need to save power !!
Chernobyl;1986
In 1994,expected life-span in Russia became shorter by 8 years.

M3.5 in Fukushima
History of aftershocks after 311.
Another point detected over 10Sv/h in Fukushima plant.
(The max of the counter is 10Sv,so it can be much higher than 10Sv)
Ex professional succor player Matsuda lost his consciousness in a training game.sent to a hospital but cardio-respiratory arrest. Temperature was 24.6C.
Highly exposed workers are now over 2000 people in Fukushima.
They detected 5Sv/h on the second floor of unit 1.
It’s near the pipe where they detected 10Sv yeasterday. This pipe was used to vent on 3/12.
Highly radioactive material is attached to the pipe ,they assume.
Radiation level in the air was the highest in 60s because of the series of nuclear test,
however,on 3/21,just within 24 hours,3 years amount of cesium 137 fell on Tokyo.

海江田経産相、明後日に辞任へ。事務次官も道連れに。総理に伝えたようだ。
Our “majestic” minister of economy ,Mr Nuclear,Kaieda Banri is likely to resign the day after tomorrow.
I wonder why it’s not right now.
Now gov is pushing the “legal” safety limit of 20mSv/y to fukushima people ,
but Hanawamachi in Fukushima stood up against the gov,they stick to the 1mSv/y rule of ICRP
to save the people and to become more independent from nuc.
Refuse incineration ash detected over 8000Bq/kg in Iwate ken. Local gov states they will keep it safe but
could we trust them ever..?
In severely contaminated,a lot of the people are suffering from high blood pressure.
The same symptom was observed in Chernobyl too.
One of the best radiation statistics in Tokyo.
includes,dose in air,1m high from the ground,dust,rain,tap water,estimate of your total dose in 1 year or 5 years.

0.85uSv/h on the train from Tokyo to Shimbashi.
too high.. something is happening.

続き3:建屋内はチリや埃でさえ10mSv/h超えてる場所もあるからね。事故当初は建屋に入れなくて海側のポンプを使って水を注入しようとしてホース引っ張ったんだけど、津波の影響で海側は砂浜みたいだったんだ。その砂が6mSv/hあってすごくビックリしたもんなぁ…。
Tweet from an actual Fukushima worker.
Inside of the building,even just a particle of dust is 10mSv/h sometimes. Just after 311,we couldn’t get into the building so tried to water by using the hose from the sea,but the sea side had become like beach because of the tsunami and the sand was 6mSv/h.

続き4:結局そのホースは一回も使わず無駄な被曝だったけどね。通常定検時の燃料はオイラの知る限り約8000~9000Sv/h位あるから10Sv/hの放射性物質が出てもおかしくないと思う。今後どうやって除染してスタックや空調ダクトを解体するかが問題だね。
Tweet 2 from an actual Fukushima worker.
In our usual check,nuclear fuel is about 8,000~9,000Sv/h,so finding material of 10Sv/h is not strange in this mess.I have no idea how to clean it though.

4.15uSv/h near rice field. Rice harvested from these places will flow to the market after summer.
Leaf mold detected 106Bq/kg from Shizuoka.

日本ではあまり知られていないけどアメリカさんが日本の被災者に就労VISAを渡しているようです。こっちで働きませんか?って。アメリカさんもたまには慈善事業するのですね。就労VISAなんて中々取れないし、余裕があってパワーを持て余してる方がいたら是非この機会に海越えるのもありかと。
“US gives Japanese disaster refugees working visa.”
Is that true ?! I deathly want details of this info. If anyone knows..
Thanks!!
In Tokyo,sewage sludge to contain 2,150,000,000Bq of radiation is produced EVERYDAY.
A part of this is absorbed into the air,a part of this flows to the sea,etc..
It’s as much as a nuc plant.
[Mystery]
Before the first blast of Fukushima,in 7 km away from the plant,tellurium132 was detected.
This is a metallic,heavy kinds of radioactive particle,which doesn’t fly easily.
Why did they detect it before the blast ?

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.
