(Before It's News)

On 2/1/2016, forestry agency announced they measured 8,800 Bq/Kg from cedar pollen in Fukushima. The sampling date was 11. 2015.

Because radioactive cedar pollen spreads from Fukushima to Tokyo area, they analyze the pollen at 24 locations from 2011.

The highest reading was 8,800 Bq/Kg.

However, they did not publish the data collected at 2 of 24 locations. They comment they could not enter one of the 2 locations for some reason. They measured 25,400 Bq/Kg of Cs-134/137 at this location last year.

Regarding the other location, forestry agency stated no male flower was found there. They did not investigate the possible relationship between the absence of male flower and radioactive contamination. Atmospheric dose was reportedly 1.06 μSv/h at 1m from the ground.
