Japan exported over 450 million dollars worth of agricultural and marine products to China in 2011, but that was down 35 percent on the previous year. Six Shanghai operators of supermarkets and convenience stores are endorsing Japanese products at the fair, which began on Thursday.

The debris will be mixed with 56 tons of local household garbage and burned at two furnaces at a waste incinerator plant through Friday. Provided that the cesium concentration in incinerated ash is up to 500 becquerels per kilogram and other standards are met, Sakurai will announce by the end of March whether to formally accept the debris from Yamada. The results of the trial are due out by March 24. ~ 5 to 1 ratio of garbage to debris. If they are careful in picking the debris, it should be no problem to remain under the .gov limit, especially since a lot of the radioactivity will go up in smoke... Once the process is ipso facto, the debris will not be selected. Any old debris will do. Pretty shrewd. ~ b |

Anonymous Coward (OP) User ID: 1295673 United States 02/16/2012 10:10 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Massive levels of radioactive cesium detected at quarry near Fukushima plant [link to mdn.mainichi.jp] [snip] Tests detected up to 214,200 becquerels of radioactive cesium per kilogram of gravel, far above the levels at other quarries operating in the evacuation zones around the Fukushima No. 1 nuclear plant. About 60,000-210,000 becquerels of cesium was found in most of the gravel that had been kept outdoors at the quarry since the disaster. Noting that extraordinarily high levels of radiation were detected from only the Namie quarry, the experts said they recommended that the ministry only set standards for areas in Fukushima Prefecture where radiation levels remain high. ~ LMAO. Yeah. Don't wear yourselves out checking for contamination in other places... ~ b |

These women will be asked to eat and promote many types of food that have been found to be contaminated. I take small comfort in knowing that the university I work for was not considered prestigious enough to be invited to participate. ALSO A citizen with a consumer grade dosimeter has found a mysterious "black powder" on the streets of Minami Souma. No official survey noticed this fine, black powder which this citizen found throughout the streets of the town. A sample of the powder was analyzed by a professor at Kobe University and the cesium content was found to be: Cs-134: 485,252 Bq/kg Cs-137: 604,360 Bq/kg TOTAL: 1,089,612 Bq/Kg ~ b |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 10410912 Sweden 02/16/2012 10:36 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | TEPCO reports reactor thermometer problem to govt The operator of the crippled Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant has attributed abnormally high temperature readings at one of the facility's reactors to a malfunctioning thermometer. Tokyo Electric Power Company, or TEPCO, reported the analysis of the problem at the Number 2 reactor to the government's nuclear safety agency on Thursday. The utility said it's highly unlikely that temperatures could rise so high unless at least 60 percent of the melted nuclear fuel in the reactor were concentrated near the thermometer.

Anonymous Coward User ID: 10410912 Sweden 02/16/2012 10:37 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Nuclear evacuation drill held in Ehime Prefecture Evacuation drills for a serious accident at a nuclear power plant were held in Ehime and Shimane prefectures, both in western Japan. The evacuation zones around nuclear plants were expanded from 10 kilometers to 30 kilometers after the accident at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant last March. The drill in Ehime was based on a scenario of a reactor cooling system failure at the Ikata nuclear power plant after a huge earthquake. Temblors have raised fears of radioactive substances leaking from the plant. About 10,000 people -- the largest ever -- took part in the evacuation drill, which made use of full-size buses and helicopters. In addition, Maritime Self-Defense Force vessels were mobilized for the first time. [link to www3.nhk.or.jp] . |

The pledge came on the 70th anniversary of Kim's birth. Kim's son and successor, Kim Jong Un, reviewed a military parade in Pyongyang on Thursday to mark the event. The ceremony was held in front of the palace where Kim's body lies in state. The state-run Korean Central News Agency ran a statement, saying North Korea had blasted a hole in the US nuclear umbrella by establishing a powerful nuclear deterrence. [link to www3.nhk.or.jp] . |
