[ RadSafe ] Fwd: [New post] Fukushima’s accumulating radioactive water: hear this radio broadcast

[Roger Helbig]

Does this reporter have the story right or is he inadvertently or otherwise
helping foment the anti-nuclear hype?

I also wonder why it would not be possible to dig down and put in concrete
to build essentially a bathtub around the Fukushima reactor site in order
to stop ground water intrusion.

 * TONY EASTLEY: More than two years after the meltdowns at Fukushima, the
plant’s operator is dealing with a new crisis – millions of litres of
contaminated water inside the complex.

TEPCO has confirmed to AM that groundwater is flooding into the plant’s
reactor buildings at the astonishing rate of 285 litres a minute.

Once inside, the water quickly becomes highly contaminated and has to be
stored in tanks which cover 17 hectares of the plant’s grounds.

But with those tanks close to capacity now, TEPCO has started to clear an
adjoining forest to make more space to store the contaminated run-off.
