It is affecting cooling system of spent fuel pool located within reactor 5 building. So looks like it's just #5 that is affected. Pool #5 has 946 assemblies, 48 new fuel.

Anonymous Coward User ID: 59939100 United States 07/06/2014 07:32 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I was on the fence until the Japanese government officially announced that 300 tons of radioactive water was going out to sea everyday. That news along with the rest of the Fukushima news will destroy Japan's tourist and fishing industries and that's just for starters. There's no way that a country with one of the largest economies in the world yet probably one of the most fragile economies at the same time could go to this length for a hoax. There's no chance on that level. But, then you have to deal with all the circumstantial evidence. And furthermore you have to deal with the fact that the media is ignoring Fukushima with very few exceptions. What's the point of pulling off an elaborate, expensive hoax like this if you're not going to make use of it in the media? Nothing whatsoever points to this being a hoax. I've ruled that out as a possibility. |

This is very insulting to Radchick who started this thread and is considered by people in her field to be very knowledgeable about radiation. It's one of the most idiotic posts I've seen on GLP and that really says something. [link to www.youtube.com] [link to www.youtube.com] |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 46552577 United States 07/06/2014 07:55 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | SNIP But the more pressing part of this typhoon is its impact across the Japanese Islands. Forecasts are closely tracking the center to just west of Okinawa by Tuesday morning. This scenario will place the strongest winds of Neoguri across the islands. We are expecting winds of up to 185kph along with heavy rains of up to 400mm and high waves that could reach 5 meters or more. After the Ryukyu Islands, Neoguri is expected to head northeastward towards Mainland Japan. It could make landfall in Kyushu by Thursday morning and will bring strong winds and heavy rains across the region. Please prepare now if you reside in Okinawa or one of the nearby islands. Stock up on food, water, medicine, and bring loose objects inside. Once the winds start howling, please stay indoors and do not try to venture outside. As always, follow the instructions and warnings from your local officials! |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 59961272 United States 07/06/2014 09:30 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Why can't they treat the released sea water coolants with reverse osmosis? Reverse osmosis has been identified by EPA as a “best available technology” (BAT) and Small System Compliance Technology (SSCT) for uranium, radium, gross alpha, and beta particles and photon emitters. It can remove up to 99 percent of these radionuclides, as well as many other contaminants (e.g., arsenic, nitrate, and microbial contaminants). Reverse osmosis units can be automated and compact making them appropriate for small systems. [link to www.epa.gov] |

They are probably trying to get to the bottom of this as we speak...not to mention Kevin Blanch. We will know more soon, but if Unit 5 is not being cooled it will melt down. I am sure everyone understands that...pretty plain. |
