Professor: Fukushima Unit No. 4 “an immediate problem” — Building is sinking, over 30 inches in places — Extraordinary possibility plant could be back at March 2011 if situation continues — Risk of fission accident in fuel pool

Richard Tanter, expert on nuclear power issues and professor of international relations at the University of Melbourne: Well, the first one, and the most immediate one, is the news that the Reactor Unit 4, the one which has a very large amount of stored fuel in its fuel storage pool, that is sinking. According to former prime Minister Kan Naoto, that has sunk some 31 inches in places and it’s not uneven. This is really not surprising given what’s happened in terms of pumping of water, the aftermath of the earthquake and the tsunami, the continuing infusions of water into the groundwater area. This is an immediate problem, and if it is not resolved there is an extraordinary possibility we really could be back at March 2011 again because of the possibility of a fission accident in that spent fuel pond in Unit No. 4.

Fukushima radioactive leak is 'the greatest threat humanity ever faced' - expert

Among the latest measures to tackle the problem of Fukushima there are creation of a decommissioning agency and the merger of Nuclear Regulation Authority with Japan’s Nuclear Energy Safety Organization. Do you think that such bureaucratic procedures can be effective for tacking the issue?

I think we should keep in mind that TEPCO declared plants 1, 2 and 3 to be in cold shut-down. And of course we now know that was not the case. Other people were pointing out that the cores had melted down through the facility. We now know that is the case.

This problem with radioactive water was an inevitability. So, this has been known for 2 years. So, I think it does point out that the time had passed to allow the people in government there and TEPCO to address the situation. This calls for international cooperation.

The leakage of water from these cores is bad enough but the most dangerous thing is the cooling pool of unit 4. Now it is terribly dangerous because the entire hot core of reactor 4 had been removed and put in this cooling pool shortly before the tsunami. So, there was a hot core in this cooling pool the entire superstructure building was blown off in a hydrogen explosion.

The entire area is weakened and there is a great risk of an aftershock. Now this pool contains something on the order of 400.000 kg of hot plutonium. So, the thing that people should be aware of is that TEPCO is going to begin attempting to remove these rods from this pool to some other type of storage. This has never been done with plutonium rods that have been out of a core for such a short period of time.

There is a great danger of a thermonuclear reaction if these rods become exposed to the air and the cooling pool itself is just barely containing the temperature levels of the core as it is.

This quote here indicates just how serious this is. A thermonuclear reaction is a hydrogen fission process. Very very very etc bad. A thermo nuclear explosion is a hydrogen explosion compared to an atomic one. In statistical terms that is a "magnitude" greater. A magnitude is not 1 x 10. It is 10 x 10 x 10 x 10 x 10 x 10 x 10 x 10 x 10 x 10 times worse.

Concerns are growing tonight — especially out West — about the continuing radiation threat from the crippled Fukushima nuclear plant in Japan. There’s this, the Japanese government said it will spend almost half a billion dollars, much of it to build a giant wall of ice underground to try to stop the flow of radioactive water leaking into the ocean.

New York Times: Experts warn molten fuel may be underground beneath Fukushima reactor buildings — Doubt that it can be extricated

Title: Errors Cast Doubt on Japan’s Cleanup of Nuclear Accident Site
Source: New York Times
Author: Martin Fackler
Date: Sept. 3, 2013

[...] Nuclear experts also questioned the government’s longer-term plan to extract the fuel cores from the reactors, which if successful would eliminate the major source of contamination. Some doubted whether it was even technically feasible to extricate the fuel because of the extent of the damage during the explosions and subsequent meltdowns.

Even at Three Mile Island, where the reactor vessel remained intact, removing the fuel by remote-controlled machinery was a tricky engineering feat. While great strides have been made in robotics since then, damage to the containment vessels at Fukushima makes the problems there much more complex.

Molten fuel not only piled up like wax from a candle on the vessel floor, as at Three Mile Island, but ran through cracks into the piping and machinery below. Some experts warn that it may even have found its way into the ground beneath the buildings. [...]

A look at the radioactive water leaks at Japan’s Fukushima nuclear power plant, and the risks

(Kyodo News, File/ Associated Press ) - FILE - In this Aug. 26, 2013 file photo, Japanese Trade Minister Toshimitsu Motegi, right, in a protective gear inspects storage tanks at the Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear plant at Okuma town in Fukushima prefecture, northeastern Japan. Just weeks after Japanese officials acknowledged that radioactive water has been seeping into the Pacific from the tsunami-crippled nuclear power plant for more than two years, new revelations of leaks of contaminated water from storage tanks have raised further alarm. The government announced the week of Sept. 1, 2013 that it would contribute 47 billion yen ($470 million) to build an underground “ice wall” around the reactor and turbine buildings and develop an advanced water treatment system.

By Associated Press, TOKYO — New revelations of contaminated water leaking from storage tanks at the tsunami-ravaged Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear power plant have raised alarm, coming just weeks after Japanese officials acknowledged that radioactive water has been seeping into the Pacific from the plant for more than two years, The government announced this week that it would contribute 47 billion yen ($470 million) to build an underground “ice wall” around the reactor and turbine buildings and develop an advanced water treatment system. A look at the problem, and the potential risks to fish and the humans who eat them.

Q: How much radiation-contaminated water is leaking into the sea?

Experts estimate at least 300 tons every day. And that’s just from one of two major sources: groundwater that flows through contaminated maintenance tunnels and pits on site. Water with even higher levels of radiation is believed to be escaping through cracks in the basements of the damaged nuclear reactors and their turbines and slowly making its way through the ground to the sea. Exactly how much is unknown. Plant operator Tokyo Electric Power Co., or TEPCO, even says there is no clear evidence of any leaks, though it acknowledges that possibility.

Q: That sounds like a lot of water, but the ocean is big. How dangerous is it?

A: The main health concern is the impact on fish near the nuclear plant. Scientists have long believed that contaminated water was reaching the ocean, based in part on continuing high levels of radioactive cesium found in fish living at the bottom of the sea. A rise in strontium-90 and tritium levels in the past few months needs to be watched, said Ken Buesseler, a marine chemist at Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution. Strontium in particular accumulates in fish bones and remains longer than cesium in fish and the humans that eat them. The fisheries off Fukushima are currently closed.

Q: Why is there so much radioactive water?

A: The 300 tons per day is simply part of the underground water that runs down from surrounding mountains and through the nuclear complex on its way to the sea. In addition, nearly 400 tons of cooling water is pumped into the plant every day to keep the remaining fuel from overheating, and that water eventually spills into the basement. Another 400 tons of groundwater seeps into the basement through cracks, and mixes with the contaminated water. Water is constantly pumped out of the basements, but some of it escapes through other cracks. Half of the pumped-out water is re-used to cool the fuel, and the rest is stored in tanks.

Q: What about the leaks in the tanks?

A: So far, that’s a smaller problem, but there are fears it could become more widespread. The largest leak to date was 300 tons, and all the water in the tanks has been treated to remove cesium, one of most dangerous of the radioactive elements. The plant has more than 1,000 tanks holding 335,000 tons of contaminated water, and TEPCO plans to increase capacity up to 800,000 tons over the next three years.

Q: Is this problem ever going to end?

A: Ice walls aside, the most realistic solution is to purify water to safe levels and release it into the sea. A water treatment unit intended to do that failed during a test run and is being repaired. The government is planning to fund the development of a more advanced unit over the next two years. There is no technology to remove tritium, however, so that could become a risk if levels continue to rise.

There’s also complicating factors, this technology has never been used in radioactively-contaminated soil.

There’s so-called spent fuel, that is, fuel that has been used in those reactors, that’s sitting in cooling ponds. Now these cooling ponds, like a swimming pool, they’re above the reactors, so they’re between 4th and 5th floor — they’re not on the ground. Now, you have to imagine those heavily damaged buildings by earthquake and massive explosions holding this material which contains dozens of times of the quantity of cesium that was released at Chernobyl — it’s a huge quantity of radioactivity. If one of those buildings comes down, or if there’s a massive leak for other reasons from those pools, and the fuel gets exposed to air and is not cooled, they could catch fire. Then the entire inventory of radioactivity, dozens of times Chernobyl, could be released to the environment.

Ban all fish from Japan to ease fears, says food expert

Hong Kong should ban fish products from all of Japan in response to public fears of contamination from ongoing leaks at the Fukushima nuclear plant, a food expert said.

Leung Ka-sing, an associate professor at Polytechnic University’s department of applied biology and chemical technology, said it would act as a preventive measure and address fears over radiation.

“If the government imposed a ban, the city would still have enough supplies of fish. So why not?” [...]

Professor Stephen Tsui Kwok-wing from Chinese University’s School of Biomedical Sciences [...] said the half-life of caesium absorbed by the human body was about 30 years.

The radiation plume from the 2011 disaster is expected to reach the U.S. coast by 2014, according to a model.
A website map from the University of New South Wales models how pollution moves across oceans, and predicts that the radioactive plume from Japan’s 2011 Fukushima nuclear meltdown will make its way across the Pacific to the U.S. West Coast in 2014.

According to Ecowatch, experts said the radiation will be below levels that the World Health Organization considers dangerous by the time it reaches the U.S. coastline next year. Although the level of radiation is expected to have very little effect on human health, the radiation increase will be measurable. [...]

Endless Fukushima catastrophe: Many generations’ health at stake
Dr Helen Caldicott is one of the most articulate and passionate advocates of citizen action to remedy the nuclear and environmental crises.
Published time: September 13, 2013 09:33

Accident, Japan, Nuclear, Politics Bio-accumulation of radioactive elements around Fukushima will devastate many future Japanese generations, while the Pacific Ocean is also being contaminated by leaking radioactive water. Yet there is still no good solution from the Japanese government.

As I watched the tsunami power into the reactor complex at Fukushima on March 11, 2011, I realized the world would never be the same again. No nuclear reactor can withstand being drowned in a massive wave of water without catastrophic consequences.

There were three nuclear reactors undergoing fission at the time while one, unit four, had just been emptied of its radioactive core, which was now situated in an unprotected cooling pool on the roof of the building, 100 feet (30 meters) above the ground. As the power supply to the reactors was disrupted during the earthquake, and the auxiliary diesel generators in the basements of the reactors failed because they were flooded, the pumps which supplied up to 1 million gallons of cooling water to each reactor failed.

Within hours the intensely hot radioactive cores in units one, two and three started to melt. As they melted, the zirconium metal cladding on the uranium fuel rods reacted with water to produce hydrogen which exploded with overwhelming intensity in the buildings of units one, two, three and four releasing huge amounts of radioactive elements into the air.

On March 15 alone, it is estimated that 100 quadrillion Becquerels of cesium, 400 quadrillion of iodine plus 400 quadrillion of inert noble gases (xenon, krypton and argon) escaped. Over a period of time two-and-a-half to three times more noble gases were released into the air than at Chernobyl.

Noble gases are very high energy gamma emitters similar to x-rays, which penetrate human bodies externally and, when inhaled, are absorbed from the lungs and stored in fatty tissue exposing nearby organs, including the gonads, to gamma radiation. Cesium and iodine 131 are also gamma and beta emitters which enter the body by inhalation and ingestion. But over 100 other radioactive elements were also released during the weeks and months of the accident and thousands of people were exposed to clouds of radiation. The damaged reactors continue to emit radioactive airborne releases to this day.

Luckily the wind was blowing east across the Pacific in the first several days, taking 80 percent of the fallout with it - much of which was deposited in the Pacific Ocean. But around March 15 the wind changed, blowing to the northwest and large areas of Japan, including parts of Tokyo became severely contaminated. Approximately 2 million people are still living in highly contaminated areas in the Fukushima Prefecture and elsewhere, areas so radioactive that similarly-populated areas were quickly evacuated by the Soviets after the Chernobyl accident.

At the time of the Fukushima accident an unprecedented quantity of highly radioactive water was also released into the Pacific Ocean. But it hasn’t stopped. TEPCO (Tokyo Electric Power Company) now admits that 300 tons of this water has been leaking into the Pacific every day since the accident 30 months ago and so far 270,000 tons of water has been released.

It is becoming apparent that the three molten cores, each weighing 120 to 130 tons have not only melted their way through 6 inches of steel in the reactor vessels, but they now either sit on concrete floors of the severely cracked containment buildings or they have melted their way into the earth itself – this, in nuclear parlance, is called ‘A Melt Through to China Syndrome’.

Because the reactor complex was built upon an ancient river bed located at the base of a mountain range, huge quantities of water flowing down from the mountains (1,000 tons daily) are circulating around these highly radioactive cores absorbing large concentrations of radioactive elements.

TEPCO constructed a type of concrete dam near the sea front to prevent this radioactive water from entering the sea. But the continuous flow of water built up behind the dam and overflowed into the Pacific Ocean. Each reactor core contains as much radiation as that released by 1,000 Hiroshima-sized bombs and contains more than 200 different radioactive elements, which variously last seconds to millions of years.

Medical implications
Water in the bay beside Fukushima is highly contaminated with tritium, which is constantly increasing in concentration and now measures 4,700 Becquerels per liter - the highest level ever recorded in seawater. Furthermore a total of 20 to 40 trillion Becquerels of tritium have now been discharged into the Pacific Ocean –a Becquerel is one disintegration of radiation per second. Tritium is radioactive hydrogen, H3. It combines with oxygen to form tritiated water HTO, which is very dangerous. It emits an electron, or beta particle which, if lodged in the body, is very energetic.

Tritium combines within the DNA molecule inducing mutations. In numerous animal experiments tritium causes birth defects, cancers of various organs including brain and ovaries, and it induces testicular atrophy and mental retardation at surprisingly low doses. Tritium is organically taken up in food and is concentrated in fish, vegetables, and other food groups, and it remains radioactive for over 120 years. Ingestion of contaminated food causes 10 percent to combine in the human body where it can remain for many years continuously irradiating cells.

One of the main elements is cesium, a potassium mimicker, which concentrates in the heart, endocrine organs and muscles where it can induce cardiac irregularities, heart attacks, diabetes, hypothyroidism or thyroid cancer and a very malignant muscle cancer called rhabdomyosarcoma. Cesium remains radioactive for 300 years and concentrates in the food chain.

Another very dangerous element is strontium 90, which also is poisonous for 300 years. Analogous to calcium, it concentrates in grass and milk, then relocates into bones, teeth and breast milk where it can cause bone cancer, leukemia or breast cancer.

Amongst the many other radioactive elements which are almost certainly escaping into the sea is plutonium which lasts for 240,000 years and is one of the most potent carcinogens known, such that a millionth of a gram can cause cancer. Each reactor core contains 500lbs of plutonium, but Reactor 3 contains even more, because it also contained plutonium/uranium fuel rods which were placed inside the core as an experiment.

As plutonium resembles iron in the body, it induces cancers in the lung if inhaled, and also cancers in the liver, bone, testicle and ovary. As an iron analogue, it readily crosses the placenta causing severe birth deformities similar to those produced by the drug thalidomide. All radioactive elements which irradiate the reproductive organs will induce genetic mutations in the sperm and eggs, thereby increasing the incidence of genetic diseases over future generations such as diabetes, cystic fibrosis, hemophilia, hemochromatosis and 6000 others.

These are only several of over 100 deadly radioactive poisons polluting the Pacific Ocean and the air, each of which has its own pathway in the food chain and the human body. Radioactive elements are tasteless, odorless and invisible, and it takes many years for cancers and other radiation-related diseases to manifest – five to 80 years for most cancers.

Children are 10 to 20 times more sensitive to the carcinogenic effects of radiation than adults, fetuses are thousands of times more so. One x-ray to the pregnant abdomen doubles the likelihood of leukemia in the baby. Females are also more sensitive than men at all ages. Radiation is cumulative, there is no safe dose and each dose received by a person adds to the risk of developing cancer.

Of great concern is the fact that 18 cases of childhood thyroid cancer in children under the age of 18 have already been diagnosed and 25 more are suspected in Fukushima. This is a remarkably short incubation time for cancer, indicating that these children almost certainly received a very high dose of iodine 131 plus other carcinogenic radioactive elements that were and are still being inhaled and ingested.

Thyroid cancer in Chernobyl victims did not appear for four years. Thyroid cancer is rarely found in young children. Iodine 131 is radioactive for 100 days, and is a potent carcinogen. Iodine 129 on the other hand lasts millions of years. Over 350,000 children still live and go to school in highly radioactive areas, and as juvenile thyroid cancers are arising, so the number of leukemia cases will start to increase about two years from now, with solid cancers of various organs diagnosed about 11 years later. These will increase in frequency for the next 70 -80 years.

Food in the contaminated zone will remain radioactive for hundreds of years because it will continue to bio-accumulate radioactive elements from the soil, thus ensuring that an increased incidence of cancer will devastate many future Japanese generations.

Medical doctors in Japan are reporting that they have been ordered by their superiors not to tell the patients that their problems are radiation related.

Water and the Pacific Ocean
Now back to the reactor complex. TEPCO is still pumping hundreds of tons of salt water over molten reactor cores daily as another 1,000 tons of underground water also flows through the damaged reactors. In order to try and control this frightening situation, TEPCO is pumping 300 to 400 tons of this highly contaminated water on a daily basis into 1,060 huge holding tanks adjacent to the reactor complex. These tanks now contain 350,000 tons of water and more tanks are being added each week to accommodate this endless flow of water.

TEPCO originally attempted to filter this water using an Advanced Liquid Processing System to remove some of the radioactive contaminants, but one of its tanks corroded and it was closed down in June this year.

The tanks have been hastily constructed to last five years, some have rubber seams, others have metal bolts which are corroding and very few are securely welded. Recently, workers discovered that the highly radioactive water is leaking and contaminating the tank site. Three hundred tons of water escaped from a tank measuring 100 millisieverts, or 10 rems, per hour and some of this water had also drained into the sea. A nuclear worker is allowed a yearly exposure of 5 rems. Because of this finding the present accident level was raised from 1 to 3, the original accident being labeled 7 - equivalent to Chernobyl, and the worst possible case.

It is suspected that many more tanks are leaking. Until recently TEPCO had only two men patrolling 1,060 tanks twice a day armed with inadequate Geiger counters. When new instruments were provided, radiation of 1,800 millisieverts per hour, or 180 rems, was discovered in leaked water at another tank, while several days later a reading measuring 2,200 millsieverts, or 220 rems, per hour was discovered! This was estimated to be mostly beta radiation, which would not penetrate the clothing of the workers. However high levels of gamma are radiating continually from the tanks and gamma, like x-rays goes right through a human body unimpeded.

Tokyo Electric Power Company's (TEPCO) tsunami-crippled Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant in Fukushima prefecture is pictured in this combination photo taken December 15, 2011 (top), and September 6, 2013, released by Kyodo on September 7, 2013, ahead of the two-and-a-half-year anniversary of the March 11 earthquake and tsunami.

(Reuters/Kyodo)

The LD 50, a dose at which half an exposed population dies, is 250 rems! Not only are these workers in serious jeopardy, but TEPCO is fast running out of people to manage this disaster which could continue for 100 years or more. TEPCO said tritium levels in water taken from a well close to a number of storage tanks holding irradiated water rose to 64,000 becquerels per liter on Tuesday September 10, from 4,200 becquerels/liter at the same location on Sunday.

They are also running out of room to accommodate more tanks, the water keeps coming, and if there is another earthquake measuring 6 or above on the Richter scale, the plastic piping connecting the tanks and the tanks themselves could shatter releasing their contents into the ocean. If an earthquake does not eventuate, what will the Japanese do with this water? Obviously it is going to have to be discharged into the Pacific Ocean. However Prime Minister Abe recently announced that the government will spend $320 million dollars to construct a wall of ice 0.9 miles (1.45km) in length and 100 feet deep behind and around the complex to prevent the mountain aquifer from rushing in to engulf the damaged cores.

Arnie Gundersen, a nuclear engineer estimates that trying to clean the site and control the situation would cost at the minimum half a trillion dollars, and he says that the ice wall may not even be deep enough to block the water.

Furthermore maintaining the ice wall would require huge amounts of electricity, presumably to be generated by coal as the reactors will all be closed, which will add to global warming and obviously the ice will melt should there be a power outage. Not a good solution as the ice must remain intact for over 100 years. The government also plans to spend $150 million attempting to remove the radioactive elements from the water so they can be discharged into the sea, a Sisyphean task, virtually impossible to conduct successfully.

But there are other problems which defy solution. The whole reactor site sits on sodden ground, which has now become unstable, muddy and possibly liquefied. The site itself experiences many minor earthquakes each day, but should a quake greater than 6 or 7 on the Richter scale occur, it is likely that one or several of the buildings could collapse with absolutely disastrous consequences.

Published: October 15th, 2013 at 1:28 am ET
By ENENews

Kyodo News, Oct. 15, 2013 at 8:46a JST: Typhoon Wipha, the 26th typhoon of the year, was traveling northward around 260 km east of Minamidaito at a speed of 25 kph as of 6 a.m. Tuesday, according to [Japan's Meteorological Agency]. It had an atmospheric pressure at its center of 940 hectopascals and was packing winds of up to 216 kph.

AFP, Oct. 15, 2013 at 12:00a ET: Strong typhoon heads for Japan’s nuclear plant [...] A powerful typhoon was closing in on Japan on Tuesday, heading towards the Fukushima nuclear power plant. Typhoon Wipha, packing winds of up to 144 kilometres per hour near its centre, was in the Pacific south of Japan early this morning. It has been forecast to reach an area off the Tokyo metropolitan area by early Wednesday and then head toward the coast of Fukushima [...] TEPCO says it is bracing for the winds after a series of leaks of radiation-polluted water. “We are making preparations for proper management of contaminated water… we will patrol places that could have inflows of water (from the storm),” a company spokesman said. [...]

Kitsap Sun, Oct. 14, 2013: [...] a hybrid storm, with characteristics of both a tropical storm and an extratropical system [...] similar to some of the features that Hurricane Sandy had [...] Wipha could bring an expanded area of high winds and pounding surf along with several inches of rain to [...] the vulnerable nuclear plant [...] Ryan Maue, a meteorologist at WeatherBell Analytics [...] told Climate Central that the storm poses a “huge flood potential” for the Fukushima area. [...] “Wipha is extra-large size-wise,” Maue said, predicting it will grow and strengthen as it makes its closest pass to Japan [...] A major storm with high surf, strong winds, and heavy rainfall likely would complicate cleanup efforts, or possibly pose an even greater danger to the facility. [...] hybrid storm systems may not be good news for Tokyo and Fukushima [...] can cause storms to intensify and expand in size, resulting in a broader wind field and a higher potential for storm surge. Computer models show the potential for 40-foot waves off the coast of Japan [...]

Yes, the cooling pools with hundreds of tons of radioactive "waste" rods are going to add to the mess. The existing conditions seem to be so bad that people can't even get close to the pools for any length of time. Once the pools begin to spill and cook, the disaster is multiplied. I have heard people say that the size of the Pacific Ocean is so enormous that this little contamination becomes dispersed to insignifcant concentrations. Bull!

Picture this: all beaches in California become too hazardous for bathers.

Cancer rates will go exponential. The people who survived by fish, crabs, lobster, kelp, etc... will be forced to other foods. This is a large part of a future food crisis. I bet everyone reading this has already ingested radioactive particles from Fuku.

that's why Zero is ignorring Fukushima.

also, the obvious inconsistency of a tsunami rushing in around mostly standing buildings draws into question the claims of a 9.0 size quake, and points the finger at Israel as the 'author' of the event.

who was angry at Japan (for standing up for the Palestinians) AND had the technology to pull it off ?

as far as the radiation being deposited in America - with the economy being a house-of-cards, they can't talk about tainted ANYTHING.

whether it's people avoiding milk (because of radiation) or vacationing in San Diego (because of radiation), the US economy can't afford to contemplate Fukushima Truth.

we're already in an economic Depression, glossed over only with massive amounts of government spending and statistic-warping.

if the truths were told - what is the bright side ? more beach-goers on the East Coast ? (less Fukushima radiation, less Gulf of Mexico Corexit/oil residue).

TV: Nuclear report warns of apocalyptic scenario at Fukushima in weeks ahead — Ambassador: This could one day be considered start of “the ultimate catastrophe of the world and planet” — Tepco: It’s “under control” (VIDEO)
Published: October 17th, 2013 at 2:13 pm ET
By ENENews

Voice of America, Oct. 15, 2013: [Mitsuhei Murata, Japan’s former ambassador to Switzerland] said a series of incidents over the past 30 months – including radioactive water leaks – have called into question TEPCO’s ability to carry out this critical operation. “The Unit 4 contains 10 times more Cesium-137 than Chernobyl. So in case the worst occurs, a total withdrawal [from the site] will be imposed, which means this can be considered as the beginning of the ultimate catastrophe of the world and the planet,” said Murata [...] “The two-and-a-half years of struggling by the state and by TEPCO have proven that nuclear accidents cannot be coped with by electric companies or by a single state.”

Watch the broadcast here

Channel 4 News (UK), Oct. 16, 2013: Fukushima: why next month is its biggest since 2011 [...] The World Nuclear Report in 2013 said the operation had the potential to cause “by far the most serious radiological disaster to date” if it goes wrong. It warns of the possibility of apocalyptic scenarios including the evacuation of 10 million people in the surrounding area, including Tokyo. [...] 400 tonnes of irradiated spent fuel from reactor 4 [...] which needs to be removed from the now highly unstable structure in case of any kind of earthquake [...] so many risks and unknowns, including whether the fuel assemblies have been damaged, which could lead to the radiation risks if the casings have been breached. The worst case scenario is if the fuel assemblies are dropped, which could ultimately lead to a partial meltdown – but that is not thought to be likely. [...] Professor Neil Hyatt, a nuclear expert at Sheffield University, told Channel 4 News reports have been “very clear on the worst that can happen”, adding: “Is that feasible? Yes. Is it realistic? That’s hard to say. This is probably a world first in terms of the engineering challenge.” [...]

Tepco Spokeswoman: “The removal of the fuels is an experienced technology used everywhere over the world. The risks are evaluated and well under control.”

Professor Hiroaki Koide, Kyoto University Reactor Research Institute, Welcome to Fukushima (2013): In the fuel pool of Reactor No. 4 there is still 4,000 times the amount of fuel in Hiroshima. Even now there are still aftershocks at Fukushima. If there is a big shock and the pool is destroyed, there will be 10 times more contamination in the atmosphere than now.

NHK Newsline, Oct. 17, 2013: “The typhoon also appears to have affected the damaged Fukushima Daiichi power plant.”

Asahi Shimbun, Oct. 17, 2013: Typhoon flushes out radioactive strontium at Fukushima nuclear plant [...] leaving water with high strontium levels in a drainage ditch that connects to the ocean. [TEPCO] said Oct. 17 that radioactive strontium and other beta rays measuring 1,400 becquerels per liter were detected at the drainage ditch about 150 meters from the ocean. The legal standard for strontium emissions is 30 becquerels per liter. [...] The previous day, the radioactivity level was 19 becquerels per liter, according to TEPCO. [...] the highly contaminated water may have flowed into the ocean.

NHK, Oct. 17, 2013: High radioactivity in Fukushima Daiichi ditch [...] [Tepco] says it has detected high levels of radioactivity in a ditch leading to the sea, after Typhoon Wipha brought heavy rain. [...] [Tepco] detected 1,400 becquerels per liter of beta ray-emitting radioactive material at a measuring point 150 meters from the sea on Wednesday. The figure was [...] more than 70 times higher than readings taken on Tuesday. It’s also the highest since monitoring of the ditch water was started in August. Officials say rain from the typhoon caused contaminated soil to flow into the ditch and created the high radioactivity. [...] Officials also say they will assess the effects on the surrounding sea.

Super typhoon on course for Japan — Winds up to 190 mph, could soon be Category 5 storm — “May follow Typhoon Wipha’s path” … “Developed in a similar area” (VIDEO)
Published: October 19th, 2013 at 12:04 am ET
By ENENews

Weather Channel, Oct. 18, 2013 at 9:45p ET: Super Typhoon Francisco Brushes Guam, Could Threaten Japan Next Week [...] A tropical cyclone is dubbed a “super typhoon” when maximum sustained winds reach at least 150 mph – the equivalent of a Category 4 hurricane on the Saffir-Simpson scale. [...] Conditions appear favorable for development [... allowing] the typhoon to strengthen in intensity, possibly to 160 mph (Category 5 status) over the next few hours. After that, Francisco will move into a region of cooler ocean temperatures, which cause the typhoon to weaken. Francisco may threaten southern Japan early next week, however the current forecast from the Joint Typhoon Warning Center indicates that the typhoon will be much weaker by that point. That said, intensity forecasts at five days out in time can be highly uncertain [...]

Joint Typhoon Warning Center, Oct. 19, 2013: [...] as the system continues further to the north, a strong poleward outflow channel may develop which could help to offset the cooler sea SSTs and maintain higher intensities. [...] All objective aids, with the exception of GFDN, are beginning to indicate a recurve scenario, but widely vary in position and track speed of the system. [...]

Accuweather, Oct. 18, 2013: Francisco gained strength late Friday afternoon and was classified as a Super Typhoon by the Joint Typhoon Warning Center, which estimated one minute average sustained winds of 135 knots (155 mph) with gusts to 165 knots (190 mph). This would classify Franciso as a Category 4 hurricane on the Saffir-Simpson Scale. As strong as Francisco currently is, continued strengthening is expected over the next 24-48 hours [...] The typhoon is likely to threaten western Japan by the middle of next week. Francisco has developed in a similar area to where former Typhoon Wipha formed last week.

Washington Post, Oct. 18, 2013: Double whammy drenching in Japan? Super typhoon Francisco may follow Wipha’s path [...] Just one week following a deadly dousing from Typhoon Wipha, a second typhoon could deluge Japan. [...] Long-term track guidance takes super typhoon Francisco on a course generally towards Japan, with another round of rain and wind possible some time between Wednesday and Friday next week. [...] Its current satellite presentation exhibits the traits of an extremely powerful cyclone, with a well-defined eye [...] Wednesday, around the time Francisco may be approaching Japan, peak winds are expected to have decreased to 80-85 mph. Still, should even a much weakened Francisco make a direct hit on Japan, it would likely bring a second round of torrential rain [...] At the Fukushima nuclear plant, the level of radioactivity spiked after heavy rains may have lifted contaminated soil [...]

With no bad weather, no further earthquakes or volcanoes shaking Japan, the news is already bad enough. What happened over 2 years ago has been played down as no big deal. I was disgusted by the non-news from government officials and knew they were lying.

The Pacific ocean is destroyed. Forget about seafood. Dilution? Oh, I was put down by some as looking at the tiny amounts of radioactivity barely noticeable above normal background because the ocean is so big. Hmmm... I think there is a big difference between normal background radiation and having a flea of strontium or cesium lodged in your body 24-7.

He had sharp hip pains, constant scabbing in his nose, back pain, memory loss, severe anxiety and a constant high-pitch ringing in his ears as his immune system began to attack his body. The diagnosis, he said, was a genetic immune system disease, which on X-rays looked to have made his hip joint jagged and his spine arthritic. [...]

Other servicemembers have been diagnosed with leukemia, testicular cancer and thyroid problems or experienced rectal and gynecological bleeding, the lawsuit says. Hair said one of his friends, a fellow USS Ronald Reagan shipmate, was diagnosed with a brain tumor.

Hair said there is no history of the genetic disease in his family and that doctors have told him radiation exposure could have triggered it. [...]

Senior Chief Mike Sebourn [...] said he suffered nose bleeds, headaches and nausea in the immediate aftermath — symptoms consistent with radiation poisoning. Months later, he felt weak in his right arm; excruciating pain followed. He said the command fitness leader in charge of physical training at Atsugi watched as his arm atrophied to about half its size. [...]

By March of 2014 a strongly diluted plume of ocean water containing radionuclides from the 2011 Fukushima nuclear incident in Japan will reach the west coast of North America, according to a new study published in the journal Deep-Sea Research 1.

However, the plume, which contains cesium-137, is so diluted it will be harmless, according to the report, which cites the power of two energetic currents off the Japan coast -- the Kuroshio Current and the Kurushio Extension -- as the primary drivers for the accelerated dilution of the radioactive plume.

According to the study's authors, the Japanese currents diluted the cesium-137, which has a half-life of 30 years, so effectively that the plume dropped below the World Health Organization's safety levels within four months of the Fukushima incident, which occurred March 11, 2011 after a crippling earthquake and tsunami combination overcame the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power station on Japan's northern Pacific coast.

Study co-author Erik van Sebille, an oceanographer at the University of New South Wales in Sydney, said that a measurable increase in radioactive material will be observable on the west coast of the United States by the three-year anniversary of the Fukushima nuclear incident.

"However, people on those coastlines should not be concerned as the concentration of radioactive material quickly drops below World Health Organization safety levels as soon as it leaves Japanese waters," he said in a news release

3. How will the radioactive material affect sea life?

Ever since the 2011 disaster, scientists have been measuring levels of radioactivity in fish and other sea life. Several species of fish caught off the coast of Fukushima in 2011 and 2012 had cesium levels that exceeded Japan's regulatory limit for seafood, but the overall cesium levels of ocean life have dropped since the fall of 2011, U.S. and Japanese scientists both reported.

U.S. scientists say the groundwater leaks could become worse, but warn against drawing conclusions about the impacts on sea life before peer-reviewed studies are completed. "For fish that are harvested 100 miles [160 kilometers] out to sea, I doubt it’d be a problem," Nicholas Fisher, a marine biologist at Stony Brook University in Stony Brook, N.Y., told LiveScience for a previous article. "But in the region, yes, it's possible there could be sufficient contamination of local seafood, so it'd be unwise to eat that seafood," Fisher said.[7 Craziest Ways Japan's Earthquake Affected Earth]

5. How does Fukushima compare with the Chernobyl meltdown?

The Fukushima plant's meltdown in 2011 is considered the worst nuclear disaster since the Chernobyl meltdown in Ukraine in 1986. Although both were given an INES rating of 7, far more radiation was released at Chernobyl — about 10 times as much as at Fukushima, NPR reported. And the health consequences a Fukushima to date have been much less severe.

One of my neighbors, Ed, likes to visit me. I know when he visits because he bangs clams on the boat with a smile. I tried to explain to him that's rude behavior, and also that the clams are not healthy for him to eat anymore. At first I had his attention, then he wouldn't hear any of it...

Radiation of course. Sorry bad joke. It was just something I was thinking about though, about how I think we don't give animals enough credit. I think they can sense when things are wrong, I wonder if/when radiation does become a problem here, they will know and adapt, leave the area, etc.

The Problems of Fukushima

There are three major problems at Fukushima: (1) Three reactor cores are missing; (2) Radiated water has been leaking from the plant in mass quantities for 2.5 years; and (3) Eleven thousand spent nuclear fuel rods, perhaps the most dangerous things ever created by humans, are stored at the plant and need to be removed, 1,533 of those are in a very precarious and dangerous position. Each of these three could result in dramatic radiation events, unlike any radiation exposure humans have ever experienced. We’ll discuss them in order, saving the most dangerous for last.

Missing reactor cores: Since the accident at Fukushima on March 11, 2011, three reactor cores have gone missing. There was an unprecedented three reactor ‘melt-down.’ These melted cores, called corium lavas, are thought to have passed through the basements of reactor buildings 1, 2 and 3, and to be somewhere in the ground underneath.

Harvey Wasserman, who has been working on nuclear energy issues for over 40 years, tells us that during those four decades no one ever talked about the possibility of a multiple meltdown, but that is what occurred at Fukushima.

It is an unprecedented situation to not know where these cores are. TEPCO is pouring water where they think the cores are, but they are not sure. There are occasional steam eruptions coming from the grounds of the reactors, so the cores are thought to still be hot.

The concern is that the corium lavas will enter or may have already entered the aquifer below the plant. That would contaminate a much larger area with radioactive elements. Some suggest that it would require the area surrounding Tokyo, 40 million people, to be evacuated. Another concern is that if the corium lavas enter the aquifer, they could create a “super-heated pressurized steam reaction beneath a layer of caprock causing a major ‘hydrovolcanic’ explosion.”

A further concern is that a large reserve of groundwater which is coming in contact with the corium lavas is migrating towards the ocean at the rate of four meters per month. This could release greater amounts of radiation than were released in the early days of the disaster.

Radioactive water leaking into the Pacific Ocean: TEPCO did not admit that leaks of radioactive water were occurring until July of this year. Shunichi Tanaka the head of Japan’s Nuclear Regulation Authority finally told reporters this July that radioactive water has been leaking into the Pacific Ocean since the disaster hit over two years ago. This is the largest single contribution of radionuclides to the marine environment ever observed according to a report by the French Institute for Radiological Protection and Nuclear Safety. The Japanese government finally admitted that the situation was urgent this September – an emergency they did not acknowledge until 2.5 years after the water problem began.

How much radioactive water is leaking into the ocean? An estimated 300 tons (71,895 gallons/272,152 liters) of contaminated water is flowing into the ocean every day. The first radioactive ocean plume released by the Fukushima nuclear power plant disaster will take three years to reach the shores of the United States. This means, according to a new study from the University of New South Wales, the United States will experience the first radioactive water coming to its shores sometime in early 2014.

One month after Fukushima, the FDA announced it was going to stop testing fish in the Pacific Ocean for radiation. But, independent research is showing that every bluefin tuna tested in the waters off California has been contaminated with radiation that originated in Fukushima. Daniel Madigan, the marine ecologist who led the Stanford University study from May of 2012 was quoted in the Wall Street Journalsaying, “The tuna packaged it up (the radiation) and brought it across the world’s largest ocean. We were definitely surprised to see it at all and even more surprised to see it in every one we measured.” Marine biologist Nicholas Fisher of Stony Brook University in New York State, another member of the study group, said: “We found that absolutely every one of them had comparable concentrations of cesium 134 and cesium 137.”

In addition, Science reports that fish near Fukushima are being found to have high levels of the radioactive isotope, cesium-134. The levels found in these fish are not decreasing, which indicates that radiation-polluted water continues to leak into the ocean. At least 42 fish species from the area around the plant are considered unsafe. South Korea has banned Japanese fish as a result of the ongoing leaks.

The half-life (time it takes for half of the element to decay) of cesium 134 is 2.0652 years. For cesium 137, the half-life is 30.17 years. Cesium does not sink to the ocean floor, so fish swim through it. What are the human impacts of cesium?

When contact with radioactive cesium occurs, which is highly unlikely, a person can experience cell damage due to radiation of the cesium particles. Due to this, effects such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhea and bleeding may occur. When the exposure lasts a long time, people may even lose consciousness. Coma or even death may then follow. How serious the effects are depends upon the resistance of individual persons and the duration of exposure and the concentration a person is exposed to, experts say.

There is no end in sight from the leakage of radioactive water into the Pacific from Fukushima. Harvey Wasserman is questioning whether fishing in the Pacific Ocean will be safe after years of leakage from Fukushima. The World Health Organization (WHO) is claiming that this will have limited effect on human health, with concentrations predicted to be below WHO safety levels. However, experts seriously question the WHO’s claims.

The United Nations Scientific Committee on the Effects of Radiation is in the process of writing a report to assess the radiation doses and associated effects on health and environment. When finalized, it will be the most comprehensive scientific analysis of the information available to date examining how much radioactive material was released, how it was dispersed over land and water, how Fukushima compares to previous accidents, what the impact is on the environment and food, and what the impact is on human health and the environment.

Wasserman warns that “dilution is no solution.” The fact that the Pacific Ocean is large does not change the fact that these radioactive elements have long half-lives. Radiation in water is taken up by vegetation, then smaller fish eat the vegetation, larger fish eat the smaller fish and at the top of the food chain we will find fish like tuna, dolphin and whales with concentrated levels of radiation. Humans at the top of the food chain could be eating these contaminated fish.

As bad as the ongoing leakage of radioactive water is into the Pacific, that is not the largest part of the water problem. The Asia-Pacific Journal reported last month that TEPCO has 330,000 tons of water stored in 1,000 above-ground tanks and an undetermined amount in underground storage tanks. Every day, 400 tons of water comes to the site from the mountains, 300 tons of that is the source for the contaminated water leaking into the Pacific daily. It is not clear where the rest of this water goes.

Each day TEPCO injects 400 tons of water into the destroyed facilities to keep them cool; about half is recycled, and the rest goes into the above-ground tanks. They are constantly building new storage tanks for this radioactive water. The tanks being used for storage were put together rapidly and are already leaking. They expect to have 800,000 tons of radioactive water stored on the site by 2016. Harvey Wasserman warns that these unstable tanks are at risk of rupture if there is another earthquake or storm that hits Fukushima. The Asia-Pacific Journal concludes: “So at present there is no real solution to the water problem.”

The most recent news on the water problem at Fukushima adds to the concerns. On October 11, 2013, TEPCO disclosed that the radioactivity level spiked 6,500 times at a Fukushima well. “TEPCO said the findings show that radioactive substances like strontium have reached the groundwater. High levels of tritium, which transfers much easier in water than strontium, had already been detected.”

Spent Fuel Rods: As bad as the problems of radioactive water and missing cores are, the biggest problem at Fukushima comes from the spent fuel rods. The plant has been in operation for 40 years. As a result, they are storing 11 thousand spent fuel rods on the grounds of the Fukushima plant. These fuel rods are composed of highly radioactive materials such as plutonium and uranium. They are about the width of a thumb and about 15 feet long.

The biggest and most immediate challenge is the 1,533 spent fuel rods packed tightly in a pool four floors above Reactor 4. Before the storm hit, those rods had been removed for routine maintenance of the reactor. But, now they are stored 100 feet in the air in damaged racks. They weigh a total of 400 tons and contain radiation equivalent to 14,000 times the amount released by the Hiroshima atomic bomb.

The building in which these rods are stored has been damaged. TEPCO reinforced it with a steel frame, but the building itself is buckling and sagging, vulnerable to collapse if another earthquake or storm hits the area. Additionally, the ground under and around the building is becoming saturated with water, which further undermines the integrity of the structure and could cause it to tilt.

How dangerous are these fuel rods? Harvey Wasserman explains that the fuel rods are clad in zirconium which can ignite if they lose coolant. They could also ignite or explode if rods break or hit each other. Wasserman reports that some say this could result in a fission explosion like an atomic bomb, others say that is not what would happen, but agree it would be “a reaction like we have never seen before, a nuclear fire releasing incredible amounts of radiation,” says Wasserman.

These are not the only spent fuel rods at the plant, they are just the most precarious. There are 11,000 fuel rods scattered around the plant, 6,000 in a cooling pool less than 50 meters from the sagging Reactor 4. If a fire erupts in the spent fuel pool at Reactor 4, it could ignite the rods in the cooling pool and lead to an even greater release of radiation. It could set off a chain reaction that could not be stopped.

What would happen? Wasserman reports that the plant would have to be evacuated. The workers who are essential to preventing damage at the plant would leave, and we will have lost a critical safeguard. In addition, the computers will not work because of the intense radiation. As a result we would be blind – the world would have to sit and wait to see what happened. You might have to not only evacuate Fukushima but all of the population in and around Tokyo, reports Wasserman.

There is no question that the 1,533 spent fuel rods need to be removed. But Arnie Gundersen, a veteran nuclear engineer and director of Fairewinds Energy Education, who used to build fuel assemblies, told Reuters ”They are going to have difficulty in removing a significant number of the rods.” He described the problem in a radio interview:

“If you think of a nuclear fuel rack as a pack of cigarettes, if you pull a cigarette straight up it will come out — but these racks have been distorted. Now when they go to pull the cigarette straight out, it’s going to likely break and release radioactive cesium and other gases, xenon and krypton, into the air. I suspect come November, December, January we’re going to hear that the building’s been evacuated, they’ve broke a fuel rod, the fuel rod is off-gassing.”

Wasserman builds on the analogy, telling us it is “worse than pulling cigarettes out of a crumbled cigarette pack.” It is likely they used salt water as a coolant out of desperation, which would cause corrosion because the rods were never meant to be in salt water. The condition of the rods is unknown. There is debris in the coolant, so there has been some crumbling from somewhere. Gundersen adds, “The roof has fallen in, which further distorted the racks,” noting that if a fuel rod snaps, it will release radioactive gas which will require at a minimum evacuation of the plant. They will release those gases into the atmosphere and try again.

The Japan Times writes: “The consequences could be far more severe than any nuclear accident the world has ever seen. If a fuel rod is dropped, breaks or becomes entangled while being removed, possible worst case scenarios include a big explosion, a meltdown in the pool, or a large fire. Any of these situations could lead to massive releases of deadly radionuclides into the atmosphere, putting much of Japan — including Tokyo and Yokohama — and even neighboring countries at serious risk.”

This is not the usual moving of fuel rods. TEPCO has been saying this is routine, but in fact it is unique – a feat of engineering never done before. As Gundersen says:

“Tokyo Electric is portraying this as easy. In a normal nuclear reactor, all of this is done with computers. Everything gets pulled perfectly vertically. Well nothing is vertical anymore, the fuel racks are distorted, it’s all going to have to be done manually. The net effect is it’s a really difficult job. It wouldn’t surprise me if they snapped some of the fuel and they can’t remove it.”

Gregory Jaczko, Former Chairman of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission concurs with Gundersen describing the removal of the spent fuel rods as “a very significant activity, and . . . very, very unprecedented.”

Wasserman sums the challenge up: “We are doing something never done before – bent, crumbling, brittle fuel rods being removed from a pool that is compromised, in a building that is sinking, sagging and buckling, and it all must done under manual control, not with computers.” And the potential damage from failure would affect hundreds of millions of people.

Isn't it ironic that the US/Israel are so worried about Iran getting a nuke and not worried in the least that the biggest nuke was set off in Japan that may be destroying the whole world. Not even a mention about the 5,000 saliors that got hit.

New York Post, Dec. 22, 2013: [...] three years after their deployment on a humanitarian mission to Japan’s ravaged coast [scores of] crew members on the [USS Ronald Reagan] aircraft carrier and a half-dozen other support ships are battling cancers, thyroid disease, uterine bleeding and other ailments. [...] The fallout of those four days spent off the Fukushima coast has been tragic to many of the 5,000 sailors who were there. [...] At least 70 have been stricken with some form of radiation sickness, and of those, “at least half . . . are suffering from some form of cancer,” their lawyer, Paul Garner, told The Post Saturday. “We’re seeing leukemia, testicular cancer and unremitting gynecological bleeding requiring transfusions and other intervention,” said Garner [...] “Then you have thyroid polyps, other thyroid diseases” [...]

Interview with Charles Bonner, one of the attorneys representing 3/11 first responders, EON, published Dec. 20, 2013 (at 16:00 in): We also want to bring awareness […] to the 70,000 first responders — who went to Japan to help in this rescue mission — that they’re all at risk, in fact we’re all at risk. This radiated water* is going to hit right here in San Diego, and the Pacific Ocean [coast of U.S. and Canada] in 2015**.

* Forecast model shown in video simulates the transport of tsunami debris — not radioactive contamination.
** Recent reports from gov’t scientists reveal the Fukushima ocean plume hit West Coast months ago.
Interview with nuclear expert Arnie Gundersen of Fairewinds, KBOO, Nov. 2013 (at 53:00 in): “Billions of people rely on [the Pacific Ocean] for fishing, and for drinking, and for recreation and stuff like that. So that we’ve contaminated a body of water with, what scientists in the nuclear iunduryu would say, is too low to worry about — but when you take a source that’s dilute, and you multiply it by the billions of people that in fact use that source, you can expect an enormous amount of cancers as a result.”

Interview with radioactive waste watchdog Kevin Kamps of Beyond Nuclear, Truthout, Dec. 19, 2013: The National Academy of Sciences in the United States has affirmed for decades that any exposure to radioactivity, no matter how low the dose, carries a health risk for cancer. […] Another dynamic of great concern […] is the attitude of the nuclear establishment that the Pacific Ocean will dilute radioactivity […] “We are at the top of the food chain, so we’re going to get the most concentrated dose from seafood” [...]

Radiation On Northern CA Beach - It's Here - Vid
Jeff Rense
12-24-13

The following video was taken today with an Inspector Plus geiger counter by 'Dave' giving readings on a Northern California beach due West of San Mateo. The beach is south of Princeton Harbor which in turn is just south of Pillar Point where 'Mavericks' big surf comes in. The best description is the San Mateo Coast. Just south again from Princeton Harbor begins the City of Half Moon Bay.

As you will see, the normal background radiation above the small bluff at this beach is about 30 CPM (Counts Per Minute).

The video is self-explanatory and we are greatly indebted to Dave for making it and sending it in.

Today's readings on the beach were taken standing up...with the Inspector about 5 feet off the ground.

Last Friday, three days ago on 12-20, Dave went to the same beach but with a plastic bag for his Inspector. He placed it down about 2 inches above the sand and got radioactive readings up to 17 TIMES OVER BACKGROUND... about 500 CPM.

Watch the video of today's readings at the beach...

It's all a doom story.

You mean to tell me that no one in Cali thought of checking radiation levels in seafood and failed to post a single video, a single post on social media etc? I mean someone that someone personally knows would spread like wildfire to others they know..

I would test my area, but don't have the equipment. We still haven't seen all the wreckage supposed to be showing up, however a few weeks ago out at sea we found something that (I think) was fuku damage. I hooked it with a pike pole and got it alongside the boat. It was heavy timber, with plastic floats, like a small section of floating dock. We got some lines around it, but it was too heavy to get up into the boat. We had to cut it loose, but afterwards I came to the realization that it may be from Japan. The heavy timbers had that driftwood appearance of being at sea for a long time, and it had windage, meaning the winds would affect it's course more than the currents. I wonder if I got exposed to some radiation. I didn't touch it though at least.

Last I read, the wreckage pile was over-stated. It appears now that the wreckage is very spread out and can't be seen from the air. It will only come in a piece at a time.

One has to ask, if wreckage is here, could radioactive material be too?

With more and more people becoming concerned, why is the government silent?

I would imagine that most if not all of the radioactivity higher than background levels of any damaging strength will have been washed off from its long saltwater bath. With all of the tests at bikini island, the island and ships that were used in all of the tests are mostly clean. It is the plants that are concentrating some of the remaining isotopes. The sea water and rain has washed away most of the dangerous stuff.

Stuff in the sea near japan me thinks is another thing altogether.

The fact we are not being told anything by the government means it was pretty bad. I believe the debris was/is radioactive because it sat off-shore for a period and got rained on with fall-out along with the 5,000 sailors.
Whether it has been rinsed clean from traveling across the ocean, who knows.

Here's today's article.
I knew we got hit hard and the government didn't tell us, just like we are not being told now.
Perhaps they thought it would cause too much panic, or maybe to keep everyone's eyes off of the reactor site and what is happening since?

Interview with nuclear expert Arnie Gundersen of Fairewinds, KBOO, Nov. 8, 2013 (at 26:00 in): From Portland on the south, to Vancouver on the north, there was significant hot particles deposited locally. One of the scientists we work with had air filters, continuous air monitors, set up in Seattle and we could clearly show that the average person in Seattle was ingesting about 10 hot particles a day into their lungs. No matter what you do you can’t get that out, the particle size was such that once you breathed it in, it lodged in your lung […] What people in Seattle could have done were to put air masks on, but of course by the time we got that data and analyzed it, it was May and the worst of the cloud had already passed. The authorities did know about it though. I’m absolutely convinced that authorities did know about it and chose to keep us all in the dark. There was a case up in Seattle where the government announced that it was going to be flying helicopters up and down the coast all the way through the Seattle area. They said they were doing background radiation monitoring, and it was just purely coincidence that they were doing it just 90 days after Fukushima Daiichi. I don’t believe that. I think that those helicopters were looking for hot particles and we were not told the outcome of those helicopter surveys. They said it was a national security secret. So authorities did know and didn’t warn us [...]

PS, I believe this is important to all of us, not just people on the west coast, but this is one of those things we can't do anything about.

I think you should post anything relevant EE. We are all in this together and your concern is valid. There is nothing we can do about this as you say but it is better to be informed than not. Ignorance ain't bliss, especially willfull ignorance; the ostrich syndrome. In regard to reality, it is what it is.

Because you all are absolute capitalists...The revelation of Truth will cause you all to try to escape your fate or panic...and that will lead to the collapse of all and everything.

Absolute capitalists take more power than they give to sustain continued existence, life, inflation.

Like chopping down trees faster than they regrow to sustain inflation.

You have two options

Stop before you run out of trees and deflate now

Or to avoid that negative consequence.

Continue until you run out of trees and deflate later.

Japan = toast

Every nuclear power plant in the USA would melt down if the electricity was cut...by a CME or an EMP.

I knew the reality of Fukushima back in 2011.

The evil that is doing this is the lie (fantasy) you all worship as Truth (reality)...To do what has to be done to properly deal with this problem would collapse the global system and kill you all.

All the nuclear plants globally have to be shut down.

The reality is beyond all of your abilities to fathom...You all are living in a fantasy world....Reality kills it.

You all have to be kept ignorant or you will demand a solution and the solution annihilates you faster than the current solution which allows you all to continue living in a fantasy.

It's just postponement of the inevitable for as long as possible.

It's a textbook example of the Just think positive ignore negative religion...

http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2013/12/28/starfish-dying-wasting-disease-mystery/4208859/

Something is killing starfish up and down the West Coast and no one knows what.

A mysterious illness that first appeared in June in Washington state has now spread from Sitka, Alaska, to San Diego. Starfish first waste away and then "turn into goo," divers say. Whatever is causing it can spread with astonishing speed — a healthy group of starfish can die in just 24 hours.

"It's widespread, it's very virulent and it's unlike anything we've seen in the past," said Pete Raimondi, a marine ecologist at the University of California-Santa Cruz who is one of the lead researchers in an international effort to track the outbreak.
The ailment seems to hit starfish the hardest, with smaller numbers of sea urchins and sea cucumbers reported falling to it. No one knows what percentage of the West Coast's starfish are affected but in some areas they've been wiped out.
So far at least 12 different starfish species are known to be at risk, Raimondi said.

Marine biologists call starfish "sea stars" because they are not actually fish, but invertebrates. They've dubbed the ailment "sea star wasting syndrome."

The first case was reported in a tide pool in Washington state's Olympic NationalPark in June.
Sea stars near Sitka, Alaska, also began to fall ill. In September sea stars in the waters along the coast of British Columbia in Canada were found affected by the same phenomenon, said Linda Nishida of the Vancouver Aquarium in Vancouver, British Columbia.

The animals first "look a little bit odd," said Mike Murray, director of veterinary services at the Monterey Bay Aquarium in Monterey, Calif. "Their arms may be twisted or weirdly positioned."
They then develop what look like tiny wounds on their surface and bits of whitish discoloration. Within days and sometimes hours, the animal begins to waste away and fall apart. "It's almost like they're melting," he says. "They turn into slime or goo, they just kind of disintegrate."
Scientists are asking recreational divers to report outbreaks. Don Noviello is a member of the Kelp Krawlers Dive Club in Olympia Wash. He and a dive partner saw their first infected sea stars on Dec. 21.

"It's like they become zombies of the sea," Noviello said. "I saw a leg walking away by itself," he said.
Scientists are scrambling to find the cause. The National Science Foundation gave rapid response research grants over the summer so marine biologists could begin intensively studying the problem. Groups far and wide are involved, including the National Wildlife Center in Madison, Wis., Cornell University in Ithaca, N.Y., and various universities in Canada.

Teams are now going up and down the West Coast looking for outbreaks so they can develop an accurate map of affected areas. The list is ever increasing. "We had our first report in Santa Barbara on Dec. 7," Raimondi said. "Last week, they found five affected areas there."

Researchers believe the sea stars' actual disintegration and death is caused by bacterial infection, but they have no idea what's suddenly making them susceptible.

Raimondi put it this way: "Suppose someone's walking down the street and they get stabbed in the arm and develop an infection and die. So the infection killed them, but the real question is this: Who stabbed them in the first place?"
There have been previous, small scale sea star die-offs. While they looked similar, "there are only certain ways starfish can look when they die. A melting starfish is going to look like a melting starfish," Murray said.

The cause could be a toxins, a virus, bacteria, manmade chemicals, ocean acidification, wastewater discharge or warming oceans. "We're not ruling anything out," Raimondi said.

The fact that the ailment is so widespread is what's most troubling, said Benjamin Miner, a professor of marine biology at Western Washington University in Bellingham, Wash. "Every time you come up with what seems like a reasonable hypothesis, it's challenged because other affected places don't match."
Whatever is killing the sea stars is highly lethal. "We've had populations go locally extinct overnight. Literally. Some species go from completely fine to a mush ball in 24 hours," said Miner, who's organizing the mapping project.
Starfish may seem fairly unimportant, but they're actually a keystone species in many marine environments. Most live near the shore, but some inhabit the bottom of deep seas. Few things eat them, but they are a top predator, eating mussels, barnacles and sea snails.

"The niche they fill is vital. If they die off, the ecological communities they live in could change fundamentally," Raimondi said.
Sea stars aren't eaten by humans, and there is no danger to people who might come into contact with them, Murray said. However, "melting sea stars, or not, any time you handle wildlife, you want to wash your hands."

Asked for a bright spot, Raimondi could only think of one: "Sea stars don't feel pain," so death by dissolving doesn't hurt them.

No its not...absolute capitalists take more power than they give to sustain existence.

Like chopping down trees faster than they regrow to sustain existence.

You all are responsible...Yet think you are irresponsible.

All of you are the cause...Your individual selfish demands for what you want combine to kill you all in the end...or give you what you need...or deserve.

The universe is perfectly fair, all and everything is supplied with what all and everything deserve, and there is no hope.

You all are nothing more than rabbits caught in the headlights of the visible matter...entertained...oblivious of the dark matter getting closer and closer faster and faster.

You all are accomplices in your own murder.

You all accepted the program...following the path of least resistance to the logical conclusion (truth) of the reasonable assumption (lie you worship as Truth)...and now judgement day is arriving.

You all have been employed by Satan (Ignorance/false GOD/lie) fighting against GOD (Knowledge/Truth) your entire lives trying to defeat GOD (knowledge/Truth) and obtain absolute power over all and everything.

It's impossible...but like Satan says...there is not anything impossible if you put your mind to it...and if you do not succeed defeating Truth/GOD/Knowledge with a lie/Satan/ignorance...try try again.

it's a textbook case of the just think positive (fantasy) ignore negative (reality) religion is action...A gradually unfolding science fiction horror show.

Rense said something I found a bit implausible in one of his recent radio shows. Said oceanographers routinely sample the ocean floor and note what % is covered with croaked fish. Said the norm is about 2%, which I expect whoever the "vultures, insects & worms of the sea" are, they make those carcasses go away soon enough, such that the 2% number stays about there over time. So Rense said that recently they'd done this sample about 150 miles off Cali, and found the floor 98% covered! If true, that suggests the fishees are dying hard & fast, and the "vultures, insects & worms of the sea", if they're there at all, can't keep up! I didn't find this story @ rense.com-- may be there, but my word searches (floor, fish) didn't find.

found this after you said something was just an hour long commercial.
When disaster struck at Chernobyl, Ukraine, not only was the region around the
reactor affected, but the neighboring state of Belarus received 70% of the radioac-
tive fallout and 23% of its territory became contaminated. Over 160,000 children
and 146,000 cleanup workers were victims of radiation poisoning which resulted in
birth defects, leukemia, cancer, and thyroid disease, degeneration of spinal fluids,
liver and bone marrow, as well as anemia, loss of vision and appetite, and a se-
verely compromised immune system.

Because of his previous success with BAC and various cancers in many animal
species, and with humans in smaller scale clinical studies, Mr. Kiriac was able to
work locally with adults and children from neighborhood schools that were suffer-
ing from radiation exposure.

BAC was administered in therapeutic doses, and Mr. Kiriac, working with a small
team, was able to closely monitor the regenerative power of BAC. Several health
improvements were noted:

• Leukemia, dangerously low white blood cell counts were significantly re-
dressed in less then 20 days, leading to rapid improvements in the health of
treated children compared to others who did not receive BAC
• Regeneration of bone marrow, spinal fluids, blood, and liver
• Reduction in urine radioactivity levels by more then 40% in less then 20 days
• Many other virtual miracles were observed
• Amazingly, there was health restoration even when children’s disease was so ad-
vanced that their eyeballs where bulging out of their sockets. In addition, the heal-
ing occurred during continuous presence of
radiation as well as contaminated food and
water sources.

Many people died as a result of the Cher-
nobyl explosion, but the miracles were nu-
merous. Given the super nutrients in BAC,
rapid progress in healing was observed and
several of the victims treated survived and
are alive today.

Mr. Kiriac remarks, “It is important to note
that the Chernobyl disaster is still ongoing.
Even though the exploded reactor is “sealed”
in concrete, radiation continues to escape
not only into the local atmosphere, but due
to winds, into the world atmosphere, as well.

Good news, the scientists say the radiation will only flow until 2016!
With a statement like that, the scientist have already lost any trust in their study.

Study to measure radioactive levels in California kelp

Scientists will sample kelp beds for radioactivity this summer. That's when they expect radioactive seawater, contaminated when a tsunami and earthquake damaged the Fukushima nuclear power plant in Japan, to hit Southern California beaches.

Cal State Long Beach biology professor Steven Manley is shown holding a small sample of local macrocystis pyrifera kelp. He is working with a group of marine scientists called Kelp Watch 2014.

• What is it: The old bath house was sold to CalTech in 1929. It has been used for marine research since that time.

Interesting studies: Wheeler North, a marine biologist wanted to set up acres of kelp in the mid 1970s and use it as a source for methane.

Current study: Eric Davidson, a molecular biologist is using sea urchins to study genetics. The oldest urchin in the study is 28-years-old.

Education: PhD UCLA

Mentor: Wheeler J. North is known as the father of kelp. Manley worked with him in the 1980's at the Caltech Kerckhoff Marine Lab in Corona Del Mar.

Previous studies on kelp: 2011 Kelp off Southern California was contaminated with short-lived radioisotopes a month after Japan's Fukushima accident.

Kelp Watch 2014: Scientists will take kelp samplings from Baja to North California to study them for radiation levels. The sea water containing radiation is expected to hit California this summer.
CORONA DEL MAR – Radioactive seawater, contaminated when a tsunami and earthquake damaged the Fukushima nuclear power plant in Japan, is expected to hit Southern California beaches this summer.
To prepare for this, Steven Manley, a Cal State Long Beach biology professor, will launch a scientific study including more than 20 universities and labs. Participants in Kelp Watch 2014 will harvest 15 pounds of giant and bull kelp from 35 sites along the West Coast, from Baja to Sitka Alaska.
Scientists will study the extent of contamination in the ocean’s kelp forests three times this year. The kelp will be dried and ground. Scientists from Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory at California Berkeley will then test it for radiation levels. Data from the research will be posted on a website expected to be active by March.
Manley, of Laguna Niguel, launched the project to keep the public informed on radiation in kelp along California beaches. In Orange County kelp is found along beaches with rock outcroppings such as Corona Del Mar, Crystal Cove State Beach, Laguna Beach and Dana Point.
There is a large bed of kelp that blankets ocean water from the San Clemente Pier to beaches at Camp Pendleton, including near the now decommissioned San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station.
The project follows an earlier study Manley did on kelp shortly after the Fukushima reactor accident in March 2011. In that study he discovered short-lived radioactive iodine in kelp just a month after the reactor accident.
That radioactivity came over from Japan by steam released into the atmosphere by the crippled reactor. While the radioactivity from rain was low, there were measured amounts inthe ocean plant. Manley said while radioactive iodine has a short life, he detected levels of it in the kelp for at least a month after the reactor accident.
Manley found the largest concentration 250-fold higher than before the accident. Samples taken a month later showed no detectable radiation. Manley said the radiation had no known effect on kelp, fish or marine life.
Still after his study published, emails flooded his inbox and calls rang from surfers and beachgoers from Japan and Australia, asking if being in the ocean or eating seafood posed risks. Public concern prompted him to undertake the new study.
“As every year passes it becomes more diluted but it also becomes more widespread,” he said. “People should know the amount of radioactive material in the kelp.
The seawater expected to strike California shores this summer has been traveling about 1-3 mph. It’s expected to continue flowing until 2016.
“I think the amount will be small, but small doesn’t mean insignificant,” Manley said. “It is imperative that we monitor this coastal forest for any radioactive contaminants that will be arriving this year in the ocean currents from Fukushima disaster.”
Kelp, a complex ecosystem, has long been viewed as a barometer of ocean health. The kelp’s large surface canopy and long, fast-growing stalks act as sponges, as they’re bathed in seawater. Monitoring what the kelp is sucking up will give scientists an idea of the health of the marine eco systems.
Manley said he expects to find concentration of cesium isotopes ��’ a man-made substance in nuclear reactors. He sees kelp as a wall of defense for the shoreline.
In recent years, especially in Laguna Beach, swimmers, surfers, stand-up paddleboarders and marine watchers have seen kelp forests rebound. They report seeing more abalone, sheephead, lobster, tide pool life and shorebirds.
Laguna’s 7.2 miles of beaches last year was among a handful in the state that are part of the nation's most expansive marine reserves. Laguna is the only citywide marine protected area in the U.S.

U.S. Military: Baby wipes, tape were main weapons for battling Fukushima contamination — Soldiers didn’t wear protective gear because “we don’t want to alarm public”
Published: January 23rd, 2014 at 10:30 am ET
By ENENews

Initial Impressions Report: Operation Tomodachi (pdf), Center for Army Lessons Learned:

One platoon used duct tape and paper towels to decontaminate vehicles and aircraft. Another platoon used hot water and paper towels to decontaminate vehicles and aircraft [...]

The TTP [tactics, techniques, and procedures] for decontamination, as well as the level of personal protective equipment (PPE), was based upon an effort not to alarm the civilian population. Another example of an attempt to not alarm local civilians occurred on the airfield where Soldiers were monitoring aircraft for radiation exposure. On one occasion, a pilot asked, “If we’re supposedly contaminated with radiation, why are you guys out here with just a pair of latex gloves?” One of the Airmen working with the Soldiers replied, “You guys have civilians on the aircraft with you also, and we don’t want to alarm the civilians.”

Insights and Lessons Learned:

Decontamination of aircraft and personnel without alarming the general population created new challenges during Operation Tomodachi.
A true decontamination operations standard for “clearance” was not set. This could have resulted in the potential spread of radiological contamination to military personnel and the local populace.
The use of duct tape and baby wipes was effective in the removal of radioactive particles. [...]
When a unit does not know exactly what its mission is before deployment, the unit should bring all of its equipment and be ready to conduct any mission within its capabilities.
To execute “dry decon,” the 71st Chemical Company used baby wipes and duct tape to wipe areas by applying moderate pressure. The used wipes and duct tape were then placed into 55-gallons drums. Once filled, the drums were sealed and processed for storage to be disposed of later.

They didn’t know how to handle it. I can’t blame them. Had they known the truth I don’t think we would have been in that area.”

PROOF: U.S. Gov't Knew Citizens Being Saturated with Deadly Fukushima Radiation - and told no one!
Saturday, 08 March 2014 01:53
March 8, 2014 --

(TRN) According to 2 reports issued by the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, in March of 2011, citizens in the US were hit with deadly levels of radiation, containing airborne particles guaranteed to cause cancer, from the Fukushima Nuclear Disaster taking place in Japan -- and the government never told anyone.

The reports also show the cities of Richland, WA and Melbourne, FL each suffered exposure to the highest levels of airborne radiation - outside of Japan - during the March, 2011 Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant meltdowns. The report proves conclusively that the United States Department of Energy (DOE) knew that people in those areas were being exposed to extreme levels of radiation, and DEADLY "hot" particles, but kept the information secret. We have both reports; now YOU have them too!

The public could have protected themselves by wearing masks and taking potassium iodate pills - for thyroid protection - if we were informed of the situation as it was occurring. Instead, we were left to breathe the radioactive materials and are now likely suffering thyroid damage and cancers.

Former Energy Secretary Steven Chu of California (pictured at right) was in charge of DOE at the time and he is personally responsible for the DOE failing to alert citizens to the danger they were being exposed to, or how to protect themselves.

How bad was the danger? To be very precise, according to the report, radioactive Xenon gas was detected in Richland, WA at four-hundred-fifty-thousand times (450,000) higher than the detection level! The chart showing this appears below (Click the image to enlarge): http://www.turnerradionetwork.com/news/351-pat

According to the report, some lab samples showed one-thousand becquerels per cubic meter of air (1 kBq per m3) and "hot" particles contained in the air showed twenty-million becquerels (20 MBq) of radiation. What does this mean to you? Well, a typical adult male, sitting down and relaxed, breathes about 8 liters of air per minute. That translates to about 960 liters (almost 1 cubic meter) every two hours.

The nuclear industry uses a whole slew of different units-of-measurement when talking about radiation. It can be very confusing. But at least one government, Ireland, keeps it simple by cross-referencing many of those units-of-measurement into understandable terms. The National Reference level in Ireland for radon gas (a relatively harmless, naturally-occurring gas found in homes) is 200 Bq per cubic meter.

If a person in the area of Richland, WA simply sat down, relaxed and breathed the air outside, they received five times more radiation into their lungs in two hours than the government of Ireland says is safe. If there happened to be one or more of those "hot" particles in the air, (you know, the ones with 20 MBq of radiation) that person got lung cancer from it in March, 2011. Some people may have already developed the lung cancer, while others don't yet know they have it. Either way, they got it because no one from DOE bothered to tell them to wear a mask for a few days. Nice folks, the federal government, huh?

Elsewhere in the country, radioactive Iodine-131 was detected in Melbourne, FL higher than anywhere else in the world. Iodine-131, with its 8.5 day half-life, targets the thyroid and is especially dangerous to infants, children and pregnant women. Idoine-131 is so lethal, that radiation-aware people around the world keep potassium iodide (KI) pills stocked in case of its release. KI pills fill the thyroid with a harmless form of iodine and suppresses the absorption of Iodine-131, preventing it from damaging the thyroid.

The report contained a chart showing the radioactive Iodine-131 levels. Take a look at what the DOE knew was taking place, but didn't tell anyone about: (Click image to enlarge) http://www.turnerradionetwork.com/news/351-pat

There you have it; proof that our own government KNEW that huge amounts of deadly Xenon-133 gas, deadly Iodine-131 and deadly Cesium-137 were literally saturating the air and frying people here in the United States . . . . and they never uttered a word about it to warn the public.

They never told anyone to stay inside and keep the windows closed. They never told anyone to wear a mask if going outside. They never told anyone that exposure to these levels of radiation or inhaling "hot" particles would absolutely, 100% guaranteed, cause cancer.

The United States government perpetrated depraved indifference to human life, toward the very people whom they are paid to serve, and toward the very people who fund their operations. What should be done with such a government?

Fukushima Ocean Radiation to hit West Coast in 7 days
Saturday, 19 April 2014 22:32

April 20, 2014 -- (TRN) -- According to scientists and marine biologists, radiation in the Pacific Ocean from the 2011 Fukushima nuclear disaster in Japan, will begin making landfall along the west coast of North America 7 days from today. The three melted-down reactors in Fukushima have been spewing 300 tons of radioactive water into the Pacific each and every day since the March, 2011 earthquake and tsunami which caused the triple-meltdown. That water, some from trenches around the reactors containing four million times the legal radiation limit, has been carried by ocean currents from Japan toward north America for the last three years. It will begin hitting the west coast next weekend. Most frightening: NO ocean water testing or emergency preparations at all have been undertaken by either states or the U.S. federal government. When the ocean radiation plume hits, you are on your own.

BBC GAVE US 60 DAYS WARNING

On February 25 of this year, the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) did a story on the ocean radiation plume that warned it would arrive within 60 days. Using February 25 as the 60 day timeline, the arrival date for the radiation is next weekend: April 27, 2014. Are you ready?

What will you do if you are woken-up in the middle of the night and told by authorities to evacuate because radiation levels are too dangerous to stay? What if the reverse happens and you're told you cannot come out of your house for a week or two because radiation is too high?

Do you have any clue at all what you should be doing to prepare? We'll try to help.

SUGGESTIONS TO PROTECT YOU AND YOUR FAMILY:

(We do NOT sell any of the items suggested below)

a) Make a "bug-out bag" for each member of your family.

It should have enough personal items to tie-you-over in case you have to make an emergency evacuation to somewhere else for awhile. These bags should be PRE-PACKED; don't simply make a list then try to go pack when the crap hits the fan. You want this bug-out bag packed and ready to go because if the crap hits the fan, minutes matter. You want to grab the bag and go -- it takes only seconds and could save your life.

•Clothes (Underwear, Socks, Shirts, Pants, Belts, shoes and outerwear that is appropriate for the season)
•Extra eye glasses or contact lenses
•Medicine (If you take something for chronic care, make sure you have a supply to get you through until you get settled elsewhere)
•Toiletries (Soap, Shampoo, toothpaste, toothbrush, Floss, mouthwash, deodorant, nail clipper, comb or brush, TOILET PAPER!)
•Over-the-counter Health aids like Aspirin/Tylenol/Advil or Aleve, cough medicine, allergy medicine, hydrocortizone creme, HEARTBURN relief, baby powder, etc.
•RADIATION-RELATED PRODUCT: 30 or 60mg Potassium Iodate pills - to be taken ONLY when actually exposed to radiation; protects thyroid.
•Sanitation (A single plastic bag to use for trash or waste as needed)
•Canned and dry foods (Just enough to tie-you-over for 3 - 5 days it may take to get somewhere else, don't forget a CAN OPENER.)
•Water or portable personal water filter (You can go weeks without food, but only 3 to 5 days without water.)
•CASH - Just enough to make-do until you can get squared away.
•A NIOSH-Certified Filter mask rated at P-95 or, more preferably P-100. These are re-usable masks that filter 99.97% of all particles.
•Swimming goggles - as temporary eye protection from radiation particles while traveling. Cheap, fast, washable, reusable.
•Flashlight
•Portable radio

Put the Bug-Out bag in the bedroom of each family member and teach them that THEY and THEY ALONE are responsible for bringing it with the family if it is time to Bug-out.

b) Equip your home to ride-out radiation plumes

•Roll of plastic film - (INSTALL ONLY WHEN ACTUALLY NEEDED DURING ACTUAL HIGH-RADIATION) to seal-up your windows in case of a radiation surge.
•Adhesive "snap-and-lock" plastic track to secure the plastic (above) around your windows
•Water Filters - Get one either for the whole house (expensive) or one for a main faucet that all of you will drink/cook from exclusively. Get filters for shower heads too. The best bet is a reverse-osmosis system combined with Activated carbon and an Ion Exchanger as this three step process is pretty much the only reliable way to filter radiation from water. Whichever type of filter you choose, know that having SOMETHING is better than having nothing. Sadly, to our knowledge, there is no reverse osmosis filter available for shower heads, so you're best bet is Activated carbon (charcoal) for the shower head.
•Doorway intercom to the outside so you can talk to people outside without opening your door.
•Disposable floor protectors at entryways. People will track radiation into the house on shoes. Use these throw-away paper mats inside all entryways, make everyone take shoes OFF in the entryway - DO NOT WALK THROUGH HOUSE WITH SHOES and track radiation all over.
•Entryway trash can with sealing lid - keep all disposable paper in this after use. Do not walk it through the house to your regular trashcan.
•Entryway coat racks - to hang coats immediately upon entry. Radiation will get on clothes when you're outside. You don't want to bring it in and throw those clothes on the floor or the bed thus contaminating the insides of your house or surfaces of furniture/bedding.
•Entryway Clothes Hamper - This will be weird, but get prepared to change clothes in the entryway to the house. Radiation gets on clothes and you do not want to bring it into the house everywhere you walk, sit down or lay down because it rubs off clothing. Put contaminated clothes in entryway hamper
•Entryway clothing shelf or cubby - to have a change of clothes at the entryway for you to change into when you come in.

c) Your car

•Get a CB radio + antenna for the car. Have it in the car so you can hear what's going on from truckers and other motorists nearby using Channel 19. It's a LOT better than a cellphone or local traffic radio for live information and can tell you what's ahead if you have to detour.
•Have a gas can in the trunk - if permitted by local laws. A small 2, 3 or even 5 gallon can get you another 20, 30, 50 miles and save your life.
•NEVER allow your car to go below half a tank of gasoline. NEVER! Not even once. If you have to bug-out fast, everyone else will too. The gas stations might all be closed because they already evacuated! Moreover, there won't be time to stop for gas - or sit in a long gas line waiting and hoping the gas station doesn't run out. (We all saw how that worked out in hurricanes like Katrina where people were fighting - even shooting each other - for gasoline. You don't want any part of that. The farther you get away from the danger, the more options you'll have to get fuel later.)
•Bear in mind your car will accumulate radiation on the seats, and floors from you getting in and out regularly. It will also accumulate radiation in the A/C and heating vents which bring in outside air. You'll have to meticulously clean those areas once in awhile to get rid of any build-up and REPLACE the A/C air filter once in awhile.

D) Stock up on food & medicine for the house

If you were forbidden by authorities to leave your home for a week or two because of radiation outside, would you have enough food and medicine to live? The pizza guy and the Chinese food place won't be able to deliver, neither will the local pharmacy, so you'd better prepare.

Presuming that all utilities remain functioning (and there's no reason to think they won't) you'd have electric, gas and water, but do you have enough food? You'd want to eat as normally as possible, but who has enough milk or bread to last a week or two?

•HAVE ENOUGH MEDICINE TO GET YOU THROUGH A FEW WEEKS
•Have dehydrated milk powder so you can mix your own milk.
•Have long-shelf-life DRY foods like:
1.Oatmeal, farina and Pancake/Waffle mix for breakfast
2.Pasta, rice, beans that you can have for lunch and dinner
•Have a Bread maker so you can make your own bread
•Have some frozen juice concentrate (orange, grapefruit, cranberry etc.)
•Have some dry mixes for flavored drinks like Iced Tea, Lemonade or other drinks (Kool-Aid mix, Tang mix, Nestle's Quick, Ovaltine etc.)
•Have some canned foods like soups, vegetables, canned Chicken, canned Ham, Chile, canned fruits, etc.
•Have condiment packets (Saved from every time you eat fast food) Ketchup Mustard, mayonnaise, Tartar Sauce, relish, Salt, Pepper, etc.
All the things above have LONG shelf lives and while you may not like the notion of eating this stuff, if you're unable to go outside, it becomes a matter of survival. You do what you have to do to survive.

e) Schools

It is essential for those of you who have children of school age, to go to the next Board of Education meeting and ask what plans - if any - the schools have to deal with possible troubles from radiation that's coming?

•Will schools be closed on days when radiation is high?
•Will students be able to telecommute to learn online via computers if radiation is too high to go to school?
•If radiation spikes during a school day, will children be given P-95 or P-100 masks? Anything less won't work. Can they bring their own to school?
•Will the school system spend the $600 or so (per school) to equip each school with a Geiger Counter capable of continuous measuring of Alpha, Beta and Gamma radiation in the air? Who at each school will be in the office to watch that Geiger counter all day?
•Will schools have Potassium Iodate tablets to administer to children if radiation levels suddenly spike? If not, can children bring their own?

f) Work

When you head out to work tomorrow, ask for a few minutes to speak to your boss. Explain that this may be making a mountain out of a mole hill BUT, given the fact that a huge radiation plume is going to make landfall on the west coast within 7 days:

•Will work be closed on days when radiation is high?
•Will employees be able to telecommute to work online via computers if radiation is too high to go out?
•If radiation spikes during a work day, will employees be given P-95 or P-100 masks? Anything less won't work. Can they bring their own to work?
•Will the Employer spend the $600 or so to equip the job site with a Geiger Counter capable of continuous measuring of Alpha, Beta and Gamma radiation in the air?
•Will the Employer have Potassium Iodate tablets to administer to workers if radiation levels suddenly spike? If not, can employees bring their own?
•Will the employer install a water filter system for employee use?
•Will the employer make arrangements to prevent the tracking of radiation into and throughout the workplace as people come and go?

h) Your local town/city government

Head on over to the next Town Council meeting, explain to the local officials about the inbound radiation and ask the local elected officials if they would be willing to invest $600 or so in a Geiger Counter that could be located at City Hall - or perhaps a few Geiger Counters, one for City Hall, a couple at Fire Stations around town, with all of them connected to the Internet so people in town could see the readings online through the town web site?

For most towns, this is literally "chump change" as far as the cost and it would serve to give all of you a little peace-of-mind that you could see what's actually happening in YOUR town.

g) Getting rid of radiation on you, in your home, car etc.

Radiation from Fukushima can be washed off with soap and water. It's THAT easy! The danger is if the radiation is INHALED or INGESTED. Once it gets inside your body, is wreaks absolute havoc through a process called "bio-accumulation." You may inhale or ingest a small amount and its no big deal. But it STAYS in you. Certain radioactive materials mimic calcium, and end-up heading straight to your bones where they screw-up bone marrow, setting the stage for Leukemia and other cancer. Other radioactive materials foul up Liver and Kidneys. If you happen to inhale a "hot particle" floating in the air, it gets into your lungs and burns through your fragile lung tissue; lodging there and causing lung cancer. Then you inhale or eat another small amount. It too accumulates. A while later, you inhale or ingest a little more . . . . . see the pattern? The radiation ACCUMULATES, it doesn't go away. So getting the stuff OFF you, and making certain you don't breathe or eat any is top priority!

Of course, this list is not perfect. But for many readers, it contains things they haven't previously thought about. You still have time to prepare. Use it wisely.
