The person(s) behind ENENews (created after Fukushima) should stand up
and identify themselves rather than filling the world with their
strange distorted view of reality.  How could radioactive metal from
Fukushima be found on the West Coast?

Radiation surge detailed in 2011 accident
Data recorded by radiation monitoring posts near the Fukushima Daiichi
nuclear power plant show the environmental radiation level rose
sharply 1 hour before a hydrogen explosion took place at the plant.
14 monitoring posts around the plant recorded the radiation level
every 20 seconds after the plant was damaged by the earthquake and
tsunami on March 11th of 2011.
Data recorded by one of the monitoring posts, located 5.6 kilometers
northwest of the plant, show that the radiation level began surging
after 2:10 PM on March 12th.
At 2:40 and 40 seconds, the post measured 4.6 millisieverts per hour,
the highest level of the day. That was about 1 hour before a hydrogen
explosion occurred at the No.1 reactor of the plant.
The data suggest the accumulated doses of radiation would have reached
1 millisievert in about 20 minutes. 1 millisievert is the annual
exposure limit for ordinary people.
Masamichi Chino, senior researcher at the Japan Atomic Energy Agency,
says the rise in the environmental radiation level may have been
caused by an emergency operation to protect the No.1 reactor by
reducing pressure within the containment vessel. Tokyo Electric Power
officials began the so-called vent work at around 2:00 PM.
The vented air was released after going through water to reduce the
amount of radioactive cesium. The step is intended to reduce the
substance to 1 thousandth of its original level. But the measure may
not have been effective.
Chino says the data can help researchers investigate how radioactive
substances were released into the atmosphere and study the
effectiveness of the venting process.

Official: Japan will be ruined if public doesn't realize they're being
exposed to Fukushima radiation -- "99.99% of the people are being
sacrificed" -- Rest of world will be taken down too (AUDIO)
