The IAEA is visiting Japan to verify the safety of TEPCO's plan to dilute treated water containing tritium and other substances accumulated at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station to a concentration below the standard and release it into the sea. = The research team of the International Atomic Energy Agency conducted a field survey on the 15th.
The Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant was visited by an IAEA research team made up of 15 experts from each country, including neighboring countries such as China and South Korea, and the field survey conducted on the 15th was released in a video on the 16th.
The members of the study team inspected the radioactive substances in the treated water while receiving explanations from the TEPCO staff in the area where the tanks are lined up, as well as the construction site of the equipment used to flush the treated water into the sea. It means that you have visited.
After exchanging opinions with TEPCO and others in Fukushima Prefecture on the 16th, the study team plans to return to Tokyo on the 17th to exchange opinions with related ministries and agencies, and will hold a press conference on the 18th.
On top of that, I would like to compile an interim report by the end of the year.
