Yes.
Releasing many reports, each c...@ LaPrimavera<br /><br />Yes.<br />Releasing many reports, each containing only a little bit of info. This is a strategy to keep the confusion up, nobody seeing the whole picture.<br />It's this thing I was immediately thinking of when seeing that Tepco spammed 9 (!) updates on the leak in the course of a few hours, each containing small details, that are even somewhat conflicting and/or incoherent, making difficult to complete the puzzle.<br /><br />Thank you again for your efforts to help make people know and understand what is happening in Japan!<br /><br />BTW I had to laugh when I read update 3 about the the Tepco workers who installed the mouse fence.<br />The workers apparently shorted something and the ground fault protection shut electricity off, saving the workers from getting roasted. Let's hope no worker has been injured seriously.Atomfritznoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1765307840677473617.post-91713980053878053642013-04-06T16:14:31.326-07:002013-04-06T16:14:31.326-07:00OT 2:

However, water that goes through the filtration process and is stored in the underground storage tank is still highly contaminated because it contains other radioactive materials, such as strontium. The radioactivity level of the water is about 290,000 becquerels per cubic centimeter."<br /><br />"TEPCO became aware of the leak after measuring the height of the water in the tank on April 4 and 5."<br /><br />"The underground storage tank is 60 meters long, 53 meters wide and 6 meters deep. It is lined with three layers of protective sheets--two made of polyethylene and the outermost layer of clay--to prevent leakage."<br /><br />"TEPCO suspects that joints in the sheets of the polyethylene layer had ruptured and the water then managed to leak through the 6.4-millimeter-thick clay layer."<br /><br />Wow. Gee.<br />Two PE foils and a 1/4th inch clay layer to secure 14,000 cubic meters of highly radioactive soup.<br /><br />Did Tepco already tell us that a large part of the "tank" capacity is just trenches, each larger than 10000 square feet and 20 feet deep?!?<br /><br /><br />Source: http://ajw.asahi.com/article/0311disaster/fukushima/AJ201304060038Atomfritznoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1765307840677473617.post-55680245064421185242013-04-06T15:39:48.682-07:002013-04-06T15:39:48.682-07:00Thanks Atomfritz.

Not that there is little info but too many reports with only part of info in each of them.
