Aug. 25 (UPI) -- The Japanese utility that keeps the nuclear fuel inside the damaged Fukushima plant cool reports its release of treated wastewater has entered its third year.
The Tokyo Electric Power Company announced Monday that it has completed its third discharge of Advanced Liquid Processing System treated water into the sea on Monday.
"Monitoring results have confirmed that the water was discharged safely as planned," TEPCO posted to X. "Going forward, we will remain vigilant to ensure the safe and stable discharge of ALPS-treated water."
TEPCO, along with Fukushima Prefecture and Japan's Ministry of the Environment and Fisheries Agency, reported that the levels of tritium found in the seawater are "below the lower limit of detection" and are under the World Health Organization's 10,000-becquerel limit for drinking water.
