The Fukushima Daiichi nuclear reactors that melted down in Japan in 2011 are still putting off about 1 million watts worth of heat and poisoning fish in nearby waters three years after the accident.
But concerns about radiation in most Pacific Ocean fish and damage to sea-bottom life near the U.S. are overblown,Scientific American reports today.
The damaged reactors have drawn scrutiny lately because of large amounts of steam resulting from the collision of their heat and cold winter air. But the amount of radiation that continues to be released has not increased, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission spokesman David McIntyre told the magazine.
Scientific American reports that with the exception of bottom-feeding and filtering fish near the site of the meltdown, the level of radiation in fish does not represent a threat and fish are safe for human consumption.
Changes on the seabed of the Pacific nearer the U.S. that some have attributed to Fukushima are in fact a result of climate change, the magazine reports.
The Japanese government has stated that the damage to the facility has stabilized and it continues abatement efforts. But Aljazeera America today reported that Japanese disaster response managers are running out of room for tanks holding water necessary to control the heat, and that an earthquake while workers remove fuel rods – a process expected to take about a year - could have catastrophic consequences.

DEC Commissioner Larry Hartig said programs in the Lower 48 are testing fish that swim between the Gulf of Alaska, the West Coast and Japan, and they have come up with a clean bill of health.
The DEC also is monitoring marine debris washing ashore in Southeast Alaska and Prince William Sound, Hartig said.
