Radiation 1,000 times normal at Japan nuke plant
Officials expand evacuation area around quake-damaged Fukushima plant

TOKYO — Radiation reached around 1,000 times the normal level Saturday in the control room of the No. 1 reactor of the Fukushima nuclear power plant, Japan's Nuclear and Industrial Safety Agency said.

The discovery suggests radioactive steam could spread around the facility operated by Tokyo Electric Power Co., Kyodo news agency reported.

The radiation surge followed Japan's massive earthquake, which caused a power outage that disabled a nuclear reactor's cooling system, triggering the evacuation of about 3,000 residents near the site, as the government declared its first-ever state of emergency at a nuclear plant.

The new surge spurred an expanded evacuation area.

Damn.  Nuclear power is great - until something goes wrong.

I was always surprised that the Japanese would embrace nuclear power like they have.

I don't believe that people have much to say about it.  They just do what they want, as usual.   I mean wake up if anyone is FOR it.

The radioactive waste from a nuclear power plant doesn't half-life for even a billion years or something!  Then, that waste has to be stored *somewhere.*  Millions of gallons in 50-gallon drums -- where-oh-where,  for the next forever years?  oh, I forgot.  It doesn't matter so long as someone is making a lot of money!

They tried to store radioactive waste barrels from nuclear power plants, at Yucca Mountain, here in NV.  Digging up the inside of an entire mountain, lining it with cement.  Hey, what happens when *that* is full?  Last I knew, the plan was thwarted because NV residents don't feel their State is a waste dump like so many would like it to conveniently Be.

Where did it go?  Where do all those barrels of radioactive waste go? Knowing this bunch in power, probably right into our water supply.

Trouble now at 2nd reactor

Japanese nuclear reactor in peril after deadly earthquake, tsunami off coast

By Steven Mufson
Washington Post Staff Writer
Friday, March 11, 2011; 5:06 PM

Japanese authorities on Saturday were racing to find ways to deliver new backup generators or batteries to a nuclear power reactor whose cooling facilities were crippled by a loss of power caused by the deadly earthquake and tsunami that hit Japan on Friday afternoon.

The reactor, owned by Tokyo Electric Power Co., is drawing on battery power that may last only a few hours. Without electricity, the reactor will not be able to pump water to cool its hot reactor core, possibly leading to a meltdown or some other release of radioactive material.

Japanese authorities ordered the evacuation of about 3,000 residents within a 1.9-mile radius of the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant and told people within a 16.2-mile radius to remain indoors, according to the Web site of the International Atomic Energy Agency's (IAEA) Incident and Emergency Centre.

The cooling problem affects the second of six reactors at the plant, on the east coast of Japan about 200 miles north of Tokyo and south of the heavily damaged town of Sendai.

Separately, Tokyo Electric said it had decided to vent gas from another unit to relieve pressure that had increased 50 percent in the reactor containment vessel. The company said on its Web site that the pressure increase was "assumed to be due to leakage of reactor coolant." It remained unclear where the leak was. The company said it did not think there was leakage of reactor coolant in the containment vessel "at this moment."

There were also reports of elevated radiation levels inside the control room of that reactor unit, which was built 40 years ago.

Altogether, 11 Japanese nuclear reactors shut down automatically, as they were designed to do in case of an earthquake. Japan has 55 nuclear plants and two under construction.

"There's a basic cooling system that requires power, which they don't have," said Glenn McCullough, former chairman of the Tennessee Valley Authority, referring to the unit in need of generators. McCullough, who has been keeping track of the situation in Japan, said that, after the tsunami, water had gotten into the diesel generators that would normally have provided backup power.

"The danger is the very thermally hot reactor cores at the plant must be continuously cooled for 24 to 48 hours," said Kevin Kamps, a specialist in nuclear waste at Beyond Nuclear, a group devoted to highlighting the perils of nuclear power. "Without any electricity, the pumps won't be able to pump water through the hot reactor cores to cool them."

In a statement that confused nuclear experts, Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton said Friday morning that U.S. Air Force planes in Japan had delivered "coolant" to a nuclear power plant affected by the quake. Nuclear reactors do not use special coolants, only large amounts of pumped water.

"They have very high engineering standards, but one of their plants came under a lot of stress with the earthquake and didn't have enough coolant," she said, "and so Air Force planes were able to deliver that."

An Air Force spokesman at the Pentagon, however, said he was unaware of any deliveries being made by Air Force planes related to the reactor issues.

"To our knowledge, we have delivered nothing in support of the nuclear power plant," Lt. Col. John Haynes said. "Obviously, we stand by to assist with anything they might need." He said the Air Force had received no formal request for help.

Just hours after the quake, Japan's Nuclear and Industrial Safety Agency (NISA) declared a heightened state of alert at the Fukushima Daiichi plant, according to the IAEA. NISA said that no release of radiation has been detected.

The evacuation comes after NISA said Friday that a fire broke out at the Onagawa nuclear power plant but was later extinguished.

The plant is about 45 miles north of Sendai, which was badly damaged by the quake and tsunami. Sendai is the population center nearest the epicenter of the quake, and Japan's Kyodo News agency said 200 to 300 bodies had been found so far near the city.

The three reactors at the Onagawa site remained closed.

The key buildings in the Onagawa plant are about 15 meters above sea level, according to the Web site of Tohoku Electric Power, owner of the plant. The company said that was about twice the height of the previous highest tsunami.

Japanese authorities told the IAEA that the Onagawa, Fukushima-Daini and Tokai nuclear power plants shut down automatically and that no radiation release has been detected. The plants have multiple nuclear reactors.

The IAEA said it is seeking details on Fukushima Daiichi and other nuclear power plants and research reactors, including information on off-site and on-site electrical power supplies, cooling systems and the condition of the reactor buildings. Nuclear fuel requires continued cooling even after a plant is shut down, the IAEA noted.

"This is the most challenging seismic event on record, so it is a severe test," McCullough said. "Clearly the Japanese government is taking this very seriously."

Cooling fails at 3 reactors at another Japanese nuke plant
http://content.usatoday.com/communities/ondeadline/post/2011/03/cooling-fails-at-3-reactors-at-another-japanese-nuke-plant/1
By Michael Winter, USA TODAY


The cooling system has failed for three reactors at the Fukushima No. 2 nuclear plant, about seven miles from its quake-crippled companion, the Tokyo Electrical Power Co. now says.

The utility, which operates both Fukushima plants, notified the government Saturday morning that the failsafe system at the No. 2 plant stopped working as the coolant water topped the boiling point, the Kyodo news service reports.

when dealing with batshit crazy psycho from hell false flag operations...sometimes it is worthwhile to think outside the box...

earthquake/tsunami = planes

stuxnet = thermite


how would there be any evidence of stuxnet during a tsunami evacuation of nuke reactors? also, do those reactors use siemens controllers.

And it is not just nuke reactors, it is also power grids, damns, water mains, oil refineries, natural gas pipelines, etc. basically much of the industrial disasters that happened in the movie 2012 could be done with stuxnet and siemens.

not really saying this is a fact, but it may be worthwhile to investigate.

TOKYO (AP) — Japan declared states of emergency for five nuclear reactors at two power plants after the units lost cooling ability in the aftermath of Friday's powerful earthquake. Thousands of residents were evacuated as workers struggled to get the reactors under control to prevent meltdowns.

A single reactor in northeastern Japan had been the focus of much of the concern in the initial hours after the 8.9 magnitude quake, but the government declared new states of emergency at four other reactors in the area Saturday morning.

You know what the real problem is...no one supported DARPA's robotic cheetah project. If NATO had DARPA Cheetahs available NONE OF THIS WOULD BE HAPPENING!!!! And the DARPA Cheetah runs fast, it could have gotten to all 5 reactors and still have time to eat some dead human flesh to recharge its energy system.

Next time all of you slaves better not make fun of DARPA and their Cheetahs because they are just trying to save lives!

Japanese officials may only have hours to cool reactors that have been disabled by Friday's massive earthquake and tsunami or face a nuclear meltdown.

Tokyo Electric Power Co (TEPCO) (9501.T) is racing to cool down the reactor core after a highly unusual "station blackout" -- the total loss of power necessary to keep water circulating through the plant to prevent overheating.

Wow, thankfully we finally have another "24" scenario!!!!!

People were starting to doubt the utter absurdity of a ticking time bomb, but NATO finally has a somewhat believable noosphere myth-building opportunity to provide an even more batshit crazy "solution" for which they can push on the masses of "shock and awed" sheep.

What do you think will be used to "save us"

will it be DARPA's human flesh eating cheetahs?

will it be some neutrino manipulating guidance system?

will is be SDI lasers?

wil it be remote operational control of SIEMENS systems (a.k.a. STUXNET itself) to counter the likelihood that a similar remote system was used to cause these odd synchronized events (this is similar to PTECH risk management network centric systems being deployed post-9/11 when PTECH and risk management was the largest cause of the 9/11 mass homocide)?

will it be the "missile defense" shield which is really a "precision strike" targeting system?

will it be some rapid deployment force of cybernetically controlled "super soldiers" in Dyncorp exoskeletal protection?

will it be a new form of UAV's which can engage in 360 degre 100,000 megapixel predictive surveillance while deploying tactical chemtrails that can instantly eradicate nuclear fallout?

Just a quick question:

Anybody ever hear of something called"China Syndrome?

Yes. There was a movie made about it in the 1970's called "The China Syndrome."

Here is a brief description from Wikepedia:

The China Syndrome is the scientific theory that as a result of a nuclear meltdown in which molten reactor core products breach the barriers below them and flow downwards through the floor of the containment building. The origin of the phrase is the myth that molten material from an American reactor could melt through the crust of the Earth and reach China.
