"NEWS ADVISORY: No. 4 reactor building flooded with water 5-meter-high: nuke agency"
nyss, kyodo.
Fattar inte riktigt vad som hänt... vi får väl vänta lite. Kanske kopplat med rök/ånga i senaste bilden från webkameran.
Man kanske bara har fått in en kamera och tagit sig en titt där för första gången...
Jo, det handlar om att man lyckats ta sig en titt på reaktor 4 nu.
Givetvis är reaktor 4 full med vatten också. Nu finns det alltså 60.000 ton högradioaktivt vatten i reaktor 1, 2 och 3 + ett okänt antal ton i reaktor 4. Men reaktor 4 har för tillfället låg prioritet, man är mer inriktade på dom andra reaktorerna.

The Nuclear and Industrial Safety Agency also said it has found that the No. 4 reactor building has been flooded with water 5 meters high, besides around 60,000 tons of contaminated water already found to be filling up the Nos. 1 to 3 reactor turbine buildings and nearby areas.
Hidehiko Nishiyama, the agency's spokesman, said that the priority level of dealing with the water at the No. 4 reactor building is low because the No. 4 unit has all its fuel stored in the spent fuel pool and workers must first try to stabilize the situation at the crippled Nos. 1 to 3 reactors.
Dom senaste värdena som uppmäts i vattnet i reaktor 2:

Tokyo Electric announced Monday that it had detected a high level of radioactive substances in water that has spilled out from the No. 2 unit's spent nuclear fuel pool.
According to TEPCO, cesium-134 at a concentration level of 160,000 becquerels per cubic centimeter, cesium-137 at a level of 150,000 becquerels and iodine-131 at a level of 4,100 becquerels were detected from the water sample taken Saturday.
Man talar nu om "melted fuel pellets" i reaktor 1, 2 och 3. Arnie hade rätt.

Meanwhile, the nuclear safety agency acknowledged in a report to a government panel that "fuel pellets" in the Nos. 1 to 3 reactors have melted, although it cannot tell to what extent.
The agency has already acknowledged that nuclear fuel has been damaged, but it is the first time it has referred to the details.
Fuel rods are zirconium metal tubes containing pellets, which serve as the actual fuel for nuclear reactors, and assemblies of fuel rods are loaded into reactor cores.
