[Japanese media: the discharge of nuclear contaminated water from the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant may be implemented in July]. According to the Fukushima Minyou News on the 22nd, regarding the plan to discharge the nuclear contaminated water from the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant in Japan, Tepco said on the 21st that the undersea tunnel currently being excavated will be completed by the end of June and will be subject to pre-use inspection by the Atomic Force Regulation Commission after completion. The Japanese government's previous forecast of "spring and summer" emissions may not be implemented until after the summer, and it is expected to be more likely in July. The Japanese government decided in April 2021 to discharge millions of tons of contaminated water from the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant into the sea in the spring of 2023 after being treated and diluted. Since the launch of the nuclear contaminated water discharge plan, it has been opposed by fishing groups and other civil society organizations in Japan. Despite domestic and international opposition, the Japanese government said on January 13 this year that it had begun to discharge treated nuclear contaminated water from the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant into the sea "in the spring and summer of this year".
