Highest levels of Fukushima radiation detected off the US West Coast | 09 Dec 2015 | Nearly five years on, the damaged Fukushima nuclear plant in Japan continues to leak small amounts of radiation into the Pacific Ocean, and more of that material is now showing up on the west coast of the US, according to new data. Researchers have detected 110 new contaminated sites off the American Pacific coast, including the highest levels of radioactive contamination around 2,500 km west of San Francisco…[The samples] contained 11 Becquerel's per cubic metre of seawater — which is equivalent to 50 percent higher cesium levels than other samples collected in this part of the ocean so far.
