(Before It's News)

Fukushima prefecture and NPO on the road Fukushima secretariat collect volunteer for decontamination in Ohnami area Fukushima city, where is a rice producing district.

100 people

10 days (12/1 ~ 12/10/2012)

Mowing, packing mowed grass, collecting leaf mold and packing, trimming trees

Radiation level : “0.364 μSv/h” (“0.068 μSv/h in the accommodation in Fukushima city”)

They comment like this below,

もちろん人体に被害が出るほどの危険な作業はありません。(国の提言している年間積算量限度を超えません。)

Of course there’s no task to be harmful for human health. (The annual integral dose is less than the safety limit suggested by the government.)

However, they warn on the FAQ section like this below,

怪我や事故・活動終了後に起こった病気等・その他トラブル等はすべて自己責任となりますので、ご理解の上、お申し込みください。
放射線の影響について、様々な意見等あるかと思います。私たちも、安全か危険かを完全に判断できることは出来ません。

Potential injury, accident, health problems and other troubles happened after the volunteer are all your own responsibility. Please apply for this at your own risk to understand.

There are variety of opinions about radiation effect. We can not judge if it’s safe or dangerous perfectly either.
