ASAHI SHIMBUN – Tons of contaminated water likely leaked from barriers at Fukushima plant
An estimated 225 tons of radioactive rainwater likely leaked from cracks in the barriers surrounding storage tanks at the crippled Fukushima No. 1 nuclear power plant, seeping into the surrounding soil, Tokyo Electric Power Co. said Dec. 24.
The utility said this appears to be the largest amount of radioactive rainwater escaping to date from the barriers around tanks holding contaminated water. http://ajw.asahi.com/article/0311disaster/fukushima/AJ201312250044
