Citizens' groups that have made proposals for nuclear power policy regarding the disposal of water containing tritium, which is increasing at TEPCO's Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station, are not based on ocean release, but are stored for a long time on land and radioactive materials. We have issued a statement that we should consider more options, such as waiting for the amount of water to decrease.
Regarding the disposal of water containing radioactive substances such as tritium, which will increase at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant, the national government seems to be making final adjustments centered on the method of diluting it below the standard and releasing it into the sea.
However, with regard to ocean release, many dissenting opinions were raised at national public hearings and hearings, and the National Federation of Fisheries Cooperatives said that they were "absolutely opposed" due to concerns about damage to rumors.
The "Nuclear Citizens' Committee," a civil society group that has made recommendations on nuclear power policy, held an online press conference on the 20th, saying that it should not decide to release it into the ocean without neglecting opposition.
He also stated that other options, such as long-term storage in large tanks and waiting for the amount of radioactive material to decrease, or hardening with mortar, should be considered.
In addition, the government and TEPCO's plan to finish decommissioning in about 30 years is unreasonable, so we will take advantage of the property that radioactive materials decrease over time and proceed over 100 years while protecting with walls etc. I should have done it.
