Water Discharge From Fukushima NPP to Begin on August 24 If Conditions Allow

The release of treated radioactive water from the Fukushima nuclear power plant (NPP) into the sea will begin on August 24 if weather and sea conditions allow, Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida said on Tuesday.

"As for the specific release dates: if there are no contraindications due to weather and sea conditions, then we are counting on August 24," Kishida said.

Japan initially planned to begin discharging water purified of all radionuclides except tritium into the ocean 0.6 miles from the station this spring. However, the deadline was pushed back to the summer of 2023 due to adverse weather conditions and other factors.
