	RadChick News Feed ‘Amazing’: Plutonium leak at U.S. nuclear site hidden from public — Official: “A very deliberate cover up… I will use the word that we were lied to” A government-chartered advisory panel was told last September that materials spotted outside the inner wall of a tank holding radioactive waste at the Hanford Site were possibly the result of a “carbonate buildup,” “cross-contamination” or “rainwater leakage.” On Aug. 13, the results were sent to multiple [Washington River Protection Solutions] officials showing measurable amounts of Cesium-137 and Strontium-90, two highly radioactive elements that are a byproduct of nuclear fission. Trace amounts of Plutonium 239/240 and Americium-241 were also detected. A reference to the results in a Leak Assessment Report made public on Nov. 7 says the materials were registering 800,000 dpm (disintegrations per minute), a high level of radioactivity that had never been found in that portion of the tank before. “This was a very deliberate cover up and I will use the word that we were lied to. There’s no two ways about it, we were lied to,” said state Rep. [Gerry] Pollet.

The motorized paraglider dropped an item attached to balloons onto the roof of one of the four reactors at Ringhals.

Title: Researchers find high cesium in some Pacific plankton Source: Kyodo Date: May 22, 2013 Researchers find high cesium in some Pacific plankton Scientists said Tuesday they have detected radioactive cesium from the Fukushima No. 1 nuclear plant in plankton collected from all 10 points in the Pacific they checked, with the highest levels at around 25 degrees north latitude and 150 degrees west longitude. The researchers collected plankton at 10 points in the Pacific from off Hokkaido to Guam between January and February 2012. They detected cesium-134 in plankton at all 10 points. The density of radioactive cesium was the highest at 8.2 to 10.5 becquerels per kilogram in samples collected from waters around 25 degrees north latitude and 150 degrees west longitude. The density of cesium in seawater was highest in waters at around latitude 36 to 40 degrees north, the team said. http://enenews.com/kyodo-highest-levels-of-fukushima-contamination-already-east-of-hawaii Grand Rapids, MN~ Altitude 1,319 feet~ Geiger Counter Mode PRM-9000 Elapsed Minutes 1,284 ~ Total Counts 59,229 Average CPM 46 Minimum CPM 23 Maximum CPM 85 Beginning time 05/20/13 06:34:08 PM Ending time 05/21/13 03:57:39 PM EST Tepco: M6 quake caused leak at Fukushima Daiichi — Water coming from pipe of Units 5, 6 This is a follow-up report on the statuses of Fukushima Daiichi and Daini Nuclear Power Stations after the earthquake occurred in the offshore of Fukushima Prefecture (M5.9) at around 2:48 PM on May 18. At around 4:10 PM in Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station, a TEPCO employee found water dropping from an overflow pipe of Units 5-6 RO treated water tank (D7 tank) where the leakage was found yesterday on the site patrol after the earthquake. [...] Regarding the treated water dropping from an overflow pipe of Units 5-6 RO treated water tank, the leakage area is estimated to be about 2 m x about 2 m and the leakage amount is estimated to be about 4 liters. The water dropping is assumed to be caused by the earthquake occurred at around 2:48 PM today since the treated water tank was at full capacity from yesterday. http://enenews.com/m6-quake-caused-leak-at-fukushima-daiichi-water-coming-from-pipe-of-units-5-6 4 minutes of real news. 4MIN News May 21, 2013: Severe Weather, Quake Watch, Solar Update How to Watch the Sun http://youtu.be/ld5ecZuHECA Donations Optional: http://tiny.cc/f195ww or https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_butt...
