Contaminated water may have seeped into ground at Fukushima nuclear plant

  • 9 years ago
Another major leak at Japan's crippled Fukushima nuclear power plant earlier this week may have raised radiation levels in nearby waters.
Plant operator Tokyo Electric Power Company told Seoul-based Yonhap News... that the radiation levels in water collected on Wednesday were 30 times higher than the sample collected on Monday.
TEPCO said earlier this week... that nearly 7-hundred-50 tons of contaminated rainwater had escaped the plant... and likely made its way into the ground.
