Leaks of radioactive materials from fuel rods have been suspected at a nuclear power plant in Tsuruga, located 200 miles west of Tokyo, citing a rise in the level of radioactive substances in coolant water.

They are now shutting down the No. 2 reactor of the plant on the Sea of Japan coast to examine the primary cooling system.
According to Japan Atomic, 4.2 becquerels of iodine-133 and 3,900 becquerels of xenon gas were detected per cubic centimeter Monday, up from 2.1 and 5.2 becquerels, respectively, during previous measurements conducted last Tuesday.

    We both reported this event on May 2. No mainstream media in US picked up the story and only today, Sunday May 8, did Japanese media report the problem (Asahi).

    First reports (May 6) of a shutdown at Tsuruga were attributed only to an "unplanned inspection."

    Japan is keen on humble apology, not so on honesty.
