Tepco knew 29,000,000 Bq/m3 of tritium at 25m from the sea last year but didn’t announce it

On 7/26/2013, Tepco released the detailed report of groundwater contamination.

From this report, Tepco already knew 29,000,000 Bq/m3 of Tritium was measured from the groundwater last year.

The sampling date was 12/8/2012. The high level of tritium was detected at 25m from the sea, where is on the east side of reactor2.

Having measured the high level of tritium, Tepco made no public announcement, or even made additional borings for the further research.

Truth is not truth because everyone believes in it. It’s the truth because it’s consistent and can’t be rebutted.

Tepco savait l’an dernier qu’il y avait 29 millions de Bq/m³ de tritium à 25 m de la mer mais ils ne l’ont pas dit

 

Le 26 juillet 2013, Tepco publie un rapport détaillé sur la contamination des eaux souterraines.

Dans ce rapport, il est écrit que Tepco savait déjà l’an dernier qu’on relevait 29 000 000 Bq/m³ de tritium dans les eaux souterraines..
L’échantillon a été pris le 8 décembre 2012. Ce niveau élevé de tritium a été relevé à 25 m de la mer à l’est du réacteur 2.
Tepco n’en a fait aucune communication publique, ni creusé d’autres forages pour assoir un diagnostic.

Ce n’est pas la vérité parce que tout le monde y croit. C’est la vérité parce que c’est cohérent et irréfutable.

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.
