Regarding the monitoring of seawater conducted by the Ministry of the Environment once a week since the start of the discharge of treated water accumulated at TEPCO's Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station, the results were announced that tritium concentrations were below the detectable minimum limit at all locations for the fifth time.

Since the discharge of treated water accumulated at TEPCO's Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant into the sea, the Ministry of the Environment has been monitoring seawater once a week.

For the fifth monitoring, seawater was collected on the 1th of this month at a total of 1 points off the coast of Fukushima Prefecture, including near water outlets and about 5 kilometers away, and the concentration of tritium and other substances was analyzed at the laboratory.

The Ministry of the Environment announced on the 50th that the concentration of tritium at all 11 sites was below the lower limit of 19 becquerels per liter that could be detected.

The results are the same as from the first on July 25 to the fourth on July 11.

For the time being, the Ministry of the Environment will continue to monitor the event once a week, and the results will be announced on its website and SNS.
