Nov 2013

Fukushima Diary has been suggesting the possible direct leakage of contaminated water from reactor1 to underground.

(cf, [Column] Tepco may be hiding the possible direct leakage of coolant water – Press should demand disclosure [URL])

From 11/13 to 11/14/2013, Tepco investigated the basement floor of reactor1 building to identify 3 locations of the leakage from PCV.

The used the remote controlling boat for this investigation.

The leakages are the from a vent pipe and also a crippled sand cushion drain pipe around the suppression chamber. A part called sand cushion ring header was also observed leaking.

The ambient dose was 0.9 ~ 2.0 Sv/h. The leakage speed wasn’t tested.
