(Before It's News)

Following up this article..500,000,000 Bq/m3 of Tritium and 1,000,000 Bq/m3 of Sr-90 detected from groundwater east side of reactor2 [URL]

On 6/28/2013, Tepco announced they are going to inject chemical material into the ground in order to stop radioactive water Tritium spreading underground. (cf, Tepco “Tritium is travelling underground with groundwater” [URL])

The report was uploaded on the website of Nuclear Regulation Authority, but it wasn’t published on Tepco’s website for some reason.

The chemical material to inject underground is planned to be water glass. They will drill the ground with the tube of 40mm diameter and inject chemical material.

They will build underground structures of 80cm diameter and 13m height. By building them next to each other, they plan to build an underground wall.
