Um, a little bit late for that, eh #IAEA? Relying on #TEPCOLies all this time? How much water has already been released?!! IAEA expands #Fukushima water monitoring

The IAEA is initiating additional monitoring close to the #FukushimaDaiichi NPP, starting with marine sampling conducted by international experts to support the interlaboratory comparison related to the discharge of #ALPS treated water.

October 21, 2024

"The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) is taking the first practical steps towards additional monitoring near the Fukushima Daiichi NPP in Japan. The IAEA carried out marine sampling as an initial step, leveraging the presence of experts from various countries who were in Japan for a mission to collect samples for the latest IAEA interlaboratory comparison (ILC) related to the ALPS treated water discharge.

"The IAEA’s new measures follow announcements in September by China and Japan that indicated their mutual agreement to implement additional measures, which will facilitate wider participation of other stakeholders under the framework of the IAEA. The Agency confirms that this agreement is built on its existing sampling and monitoring activities in compliance with the IAEA statutory functions."

"International experts from China’s Third Institute of Oceanography, the Korea Institute of Nuclear Safety and Switzerland’s Spiez Laboratory – members of the IAEA’s Analytical Laboratories for the Measurement of Environmental Radioactivity (#ALMERA) network – participated in the marine sampling, which included taking samples for subsequent analysis in their own laboratories."

Oh noes! Not the same ##KashiwazakiKariwa nuclear facility that falsified data about seawater temperature, radioactive iodine releases and other falsifications, and near where the #JapanEarthquake2024 struck? NOT a good idea! Sounds like #JapanGov has NOT learned its lesson! "#TEPCOLies is close to obtaining approval to restart Unit 7 of its Kashiwazaki-Kariwa #NuclearPowerPlant in #Niigata prefecture."

In the news lately -- revelations about how even low-level radiation can cause health problems. #JapanGov is pretending that #bioaccumulation doesn't exist (and apparently also believe in #RadiationHormesis -- which has been proven false). DRINK UP!

#Fukushima nuclear plant starts 2nd release of treated #radioactive #wastewater into the #sea

Japan’s wrecked #Fukushima #nuclear power plant says it has begun releasing a second batch of treated radioactive wastewater into the sea after the first round of discharges ended smoothly

"Some scientists say, however, that the continuing release of low-level radioactive materials is unprecedented and needs to be monitored closely."
