Over 700 Fukushima waste bags swept away by torrential floods
Extensive
and destructive floods across eastern Japan have swept more than 700
bags containing Fukushima-contaminated soil and grass into Japan’s
rivers, with many still unaccounted for and some spilling their
radioactive content into the water system.
Authorities
in the small city of Nikko in Japan’s Tochigi Prefecture, some 175 km
away from the Fukushima nuclear power plant, have said that at least 334
bags containing radioactive soil have been swept into a tributary of
the Kinugawa river, The Asahi Shimbun reports.
According to the city’s authorities, the washed-away waste was only part of hundreds of bags being stored at the Kobyakugawa Sakura Koen park alongside the river. Another 132 bags of waste reportedly rolled down the slopes.
