Also, “Unthinkable”: Reports surfacing of radioactive sheep in parts of Norway containing 4,000 Bq/kg Title: Chernobyl still affects Norway

Today, reports have surfaced that some sheep in certain parts of Norway contain 4,000 Becquerel per kilo of meat, almost six times higher than recommended by Norwegian Radiation Protection Authority (NRPA) officials.

The Norwegian Food Safety Authority’s Magnar Grudt tells NRK, “It’s way above the allowed limit for meat trading. 600 Becquerel per kilo is the maximum permitted for sheep.” [...]

” [...] we never thought we would still be measuring radioactivity in sheep today. It’s unthinkable.”

Tepco to begin coating seafloor with cement

Title: Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant Start of marine soil coating construction inside the port
Source: Tepco Handout
Date: Feb 21, 2012

According to past sampling, we detected relatively high concentrated radioactive materials from marine soil sampled at inside of the port. Since the marine soil will be spread by ocean wave, we plan to prevent spreading of marine pollution to outside of the port by covering marine soil with solidified soil. [...] What about tarp sheets

・We will use solidified soil made from bentonite and cement as covering material since it doesn’t affect to coastal environment and has less variability of quality of construction.
・For lower layer, we will use light weight solidified soil (Coating material A) to cover high natant floating mud of seafloor surface
・For upper layer, we will use solidified soil (Coating material B) which has superior durability and easiness to fill.

[...] Zooplankton, which get carried by currents, collected in those waters had levels of cesium-137 and the shorter-lived cesium-134 that were on average 40 times higher than the surrounding water, [Nicholas Fisher, a marine science professor at New York's Stony Brook University] said. They also had much higher levels of a radioactive form of silver produced by nuclear reactions. [...]

Fisher said the cesium results were about what researchers expected, but the presence of the radioactive silver was a surprise. [...]

[...] But the readings amounted to a fraction of the amount of radioactivity sea life is exposed to from naturally occurring potassium in seawater, [Nicholas Fisher, a marine science professor at New York's Stony Brook University] said.

“The total radiation in the marine organisms that we collected from Fukushima is still less than the natural radiation background that the animals already had, and quite a bit less,” he said. “It’s about 20%.” [...]

Fisher said that when his group took samples in June 2011, they were not allowed within 30 kilometers (19 miles) of the plant [...]

Fisher said test results are still pending for other reactor byproducts believed to have been released by the plant, such as strontium-90 — which builds up in bone — and heavy elements like plutonium. [...]

Fukushima was impossible.
The swamping of the external generators by the tsunami was irrelevant,
because the real emergency backup systems are driven by steam from the reactors themselves.
No electricity is needed to operate three separate emergency systems at each reactor, each of which will keep a reactor safe even if only one works. Interesting it is then that all 9 non electrical backup systems across the three fueled reactors failed. This is technically impossible outside of willful intent, and was likely the result of a Stuxnet attack.

I believe that there is five essential backup systems in this type of reactors. Nevertheless, you have a valid point here.

I posted this link before but please watch when you have a chance Evacuate Fukushima ç¦�島ã�®å�供を守れ Part 07 - DAYS OF INFAMY - YouTube- and think about what is really going on. I feel terribly sorry for all these people which soon may have no place or means to run and other countries which are pro nuclear will refuse to let them in.

Not correct but there is more to this.

Your first point is correct because once the coolant pumps were swamped and failed, meltdown was inevitable. This type of plant relies on the cores and fuel pools being kept under water, loosing the pumps made that impossible. The other safety systems, not powered by steam, only buy you time to get the main cooling system back on line.

After pump failure the reactors are still generating heat, even in cold shutdown, this will boil off the water in a matter of hours or a few days. I am sure that the other emergency systems did work but there was definitely a problem on reactor one as the hydrogen explosion occurred too soon. Maybe one or more of the emergency systems had failed, maybe it was not in cold shut down. Ccould this have been stuxnet? yes, but we have no way of knowing at this stage and it could just as easily have been due to the earthquake and tsunami damaging the emergency systems.

There was a problem with reactor 3, the explosion was too violent although it exploded right on time as far as meltdown and hydrogen production was concerned.

The same goes for reactor 4 especially as there was no fuel in the core. This explosion was too violent judging by the damage to the structure.

Could there have been foul play? it would not surprise me with who is running the world especially when you take into account the number of incidents at nuclear facilities since Fukushima, more than 50 I believe.

The website you quote I have a problem with, some of it seems plausible while other parts are clearly inaccurate and fantasy. This could be deliberate misinformation or just a rampant imagination. If it is misinformation that too would fit in with the theories of foul play as the people that run the world often use that technique.

No one is telling us about the deaths of people that can be linked to the accident either indirectly or directly. This silence alone would be a form of murder. This is just more proof that there is a conspiracy not just to cover up but to allow people to die or even cause people to die.

I don't know what happened at Fukushima as far as the explosions and meltdowns are concerned and something there is clearly wrong but I do know there is a massive worldwide coverup and that is deliberate. Even if this was all an accident, it is clear that they are not letting a good crisis go to waste.

Tepco, Japan's largest electricity supplier, disclosed internal documents and data Monday indicating the isolation condenser may have been manually shut down around 3 p.m. March 11 shortly after kicking in following the massive quake at 2:46 p.m. The plant was hit by tsunami around 3:30 p.m.

The isolation condenser is designed to inject water into the reactor for at least eight hours after the main coolant system loses power, as happened March 11.

Serious abnormalities found in evacuees

“Serious abnormalities found in 11 evacuees from Fukushima Prefecture”

7-year old girl had 8 millimeter nodule on her thyroid [Blood tests determined 'benign']
Her 2-year-old sister also had 2 millimeter nodule
Doctor who examined them said “I’ve never seen anything like this”
2 children and 9 adults were tested in Sapporo, and thyroid cancer was suspected
Adult woman has been confirmed to have thyroid cancer
Japanese researchers [say] “it is impossible for children under the age of 6 to have nodules 5 millimeters or larger”
But the doctor who examined them in Sapporo, Hokkaido says, “Whatever they say, this is the result”
In the case of Chernobyl, it took 4 years till the cases of thyroid cancer started to appear. The doctor in Sapporo is shocked by the quick onset

Kouta Kino****a’s blog

He and several others had known about it, and were trying to find a better way to disclose the information with the agreement of all the parties involved (parents, for one). He seems rather upset with the reporter. He also quotes an expert of the Chernobyl accident he consults with: “At this stage, you can’t tell whether it is a malignant tumor. I personally think the Bunshun article went overboard. What’s known now is that they have some tumor of unknown nature. The growth is rapid, and no doubt it is a health damage from radioactive materials. I think it can be categorized as damage caused by radiation, even if the growth is benign, because before March 11 [accident], such growth was impossible in children.”

Hmmmm an incompetence claim, I have heard things like this before.

There are written procedures for every operation on a nuclear plant, I know I have worked on them, this would mean that a procedure was deliberately disobeyed. OK this was an emergency situation but no one makes a decision to change a procedure on a nuclear plant without considering the consequences of their action. If this was done it would have been done with the consultation of many engineers and the IAEA or some other governing body, would have been notified. If it did happen there will be a paper trail.

It could explain the rapid loss of cooling on that reactor.

Official found dead, head covered with plastic bag

Source: Fukushima Diary
Date: Feb 24, 2012

Mr. Kabayama, a Tokyo city councilor of Liberal Democratic Party [...] was measuring radiation in various areas in Tokyo and posted it on his blog.

On 6/30/2011, he measured 0.25 microSv/h in Mizumoto Park. [...]

The next day, 7/1/2011 3AM, he was found dead with his head covered by a plastic bag.
Police thought it to be suicide for some reason.
[...] he sounded motivated to measure around in Tokyo. [...]

Gendai: 1.5 million Bq/m² detected in Tokyo park — At level of mandatory evacuation areas after Chernobyl
[...] The contamination level of Mizumoto Park turned out to be the same level of “off-limits zone” in Chernobyl.
The contamination level of the park was 23,300 Bq/Kg.
According to Nuclear Safety Commission, it is converted to be 1.4 ~1.5 million Bq/m2. [...] at least some parts are contaminated as the worst area of Chernobyl.

Tokyo station is contaminated as mandatory evacuating zone in Fukushima

Date: Feb 25, 2012

On 2/21~23/2012, a Twitter user measured radiation level at Tokyo station and it turned out to be 2.94~6.5 microSv/h. [...]

1m height from the ground : 6.5~4.8 microSv/h

1.8m height from the ground : 3.0~4.2 microSv/h

The reason of this high level of contamination is assumed to be because hot particles are brought from Fukushima or North Japan by the shoes of passengers.
