What is Happening at the Fukushima Nuclear
Power Plant (1/2)
To My Loved Ones:
This entry is long, but I hope you will feel better after you read it. The style of writing here is pretty rigid because of the subject matter…
Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant was struck by an earthquake more powerful than anything it was designed to withstand. Damages were unavoidable, because the earthquake was several times more powerful than the worst case scenario, and it was followed by a devastating tsunami. (Remember that an earthquake that is 0.2 greater in magnitude is twice as powerful.)
The reactors, however, were successfully shut down by an automated shut-down process. As long as the reactors remain cooled, the situation will not change significantly going forward. But everyone is scared. I have realized through phone conversations and e-mail exchanges with my friends that they are imagining the worst and avoiding leaving their homes and are worried and scared. I am writing this entry from abroad, and I feel guilty, to be honest, about being far away and safe from the disaster area. What I can do for now is to try to accurately describe what is happening in Fukushima in a way that is easy to understand, so that hopefully people who read this will feel a little less worried.
When I
was a student, I was involved in the experimental works on radiation at a
nuclear power plant in Tokai Village in Ibaragi Prefecture. Before I started my work there, I
learned about radiation and obtained a government license to handle radiation
in a supervisory role. I do have a
scientific background. What I am
writing here are my personal opinions. I have, however, carefully studied the opinions of the nuclear experts
in Japan and abroad. I am
summarizing what I believe is the truth about the situation in Fukushima. There is a lot of conflicting
information out there, and I hope this entry will provide some insight.
I have written this entry for my friends and family who live in the Tokyo metropolitan area, so that they would be less worried. People in Fukushima, who are directly affected by the crisis, may feel offended to read a blog about how people in Tokyo will be safe. The only thing I can do for now, however, is to help my loved ones in Tokyo feel reassured about their situation. I apologize in advance, from the depth of my heart, to people in Fukushima, who may happen to come across my blog.
I have tried to accurately summarize the situation at the nuclear power plant, based on the information I have collected over the past three days, in a way that is easy to understand. When I wrote this entry in the evening of March 17th, I only meant it for my friends and family to read it. But now I am making it public. I am not a journalist or an expert in this field. My writing is not perfect. But I tried to make sense out of the information I have gathered, so that it would be understandable, rather than confusing. I too felt confused, before I made sense out of the situation.
I will break this down into several key points.
1. Firstly, we cannot expect the government to tell us exactly what is happening and what they are doing in Fukushima in real time. They have several reasons for not wanting to provide all the details in real time. Nor does the government get all the information in real time.
This has nothing to do with whether the government is “good” or “working as it should.” The government is doing what it can to keep people safe (by reducing the primary and secondary damages as much as possible) and to keep the economy functioning, albeit individual officials have different levels of capabilities and different styles of communications. We are facing an unprecedented crisis, and the government is unable to make everything all right. Nor is it trying to escape from its responsibilities. All that the (majority of) officials are focused on is to do their best.
Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO) has faced criticisms on the imprecise information it has been giving out. But that cannot be helped either. Because of frequent explosions at the plant, workers are able to work near the facility only for 15 to 30 minutes at a time before hitting the daily radiation exposure limit, even with the protective gear. It is tremendously difficult even to “just to go see” what is going on. Many of the instruments have been destroyed, and the TEPCO is unable to collect the information it needs. Because people on the ground are professionals in the field, they are able to make conjectures on “what could happen.” I am sure they can talk about various scenarios, if they wanted to, but speaking about them publicly would only add to the confusion.
As a for profit corporation, TEPCO, I am sure, wants to minimize damages to itself. There is no doubt that it is also trying to minimize the spread of the radiation, because, after all, its mission is to provide public service. But remember that these people are not trained or experienced in communicating with the public on such a grave matter. They are trying to stick to scientifically observable facts and avoid discussing anything else. That is why their press conferences are so awkward. I am also sure that the government has made it clear to them that all important matters should go through them first.
People at TEPCO and their partners are doing everything they can to deal with the situation. Let us stop questioning what they are doing at this moment. I am not talking about whether or not they should have tried to continue using a 40 year old nuclear power plant. I am talking about how they are dealing with the immediate problems they face now.
Let us also remember that our self defense forces, the police, and the fire departments are also doing everything they can.
People are also questioning whether the government and the Prime Minister can be trusted to “do the right thing.” We are facing a potential nuclear fallout, and the officials actually do not have much say about what should be communicated to the public. Nor does the Prime Minister have an influence on the actions being taken on the ground. Only those who specialize in the field are able to deal with the highly technical problems and try to save lives.
Think back on when the United States, for example, faced a crisis with Apollo 13. What would the President of the United States have been able to do in that situation? Nothing. He had to leave it to people at NASA and the astronauts to deal with the situation. In the same way, people who work at the power plant, the police, the self defense force, and the firemen are trying to come up with the best way to deal with the situation and are working around the clock. The Japanese government is under an intense scrutiny by the international community, and it definitely cannot whitewash the problem the way the Russian government had on Chernobyl. I do not see any reason to mistrust the government here.
Although I do trust the government’s good intentions, there are issues with their ability to communicate effectively with the public, provide the leadership that is needed, and to be prepared for the worst. This is where the Japanese people feel the government is lacking. The teams of specialists and professionals are tasked to work on the technical issues and solutions, but it is the government’s job to make the tough political decisions. I just hope that our leaders will be able to make the right decisions and show the leadership that we expect from them. We could go on and on about the shortfalls in the government, but I’m sure everyone is tired of hearing about it. Let us instead focus on understanding the situation.
2. I believe the government does not provide all the details on what is happening and what they are doing, because of the following reasons. (Although I do see that they have become more open during the past few days.)
A. They are concerned about the misinformation spreading through the mass media, which has failed to communicate accurate information on the nuclear power and radiation. For example, they run sensational headlines on how “the meltdown has started,” or “the meltdown is unavoidable,” without bothering to first understand what a meltdown actually is or what exactly it means, such as which part of the reactor is being affected and whether the containment is possible.
B. The misinformation spread by the mass media is magnified by the word-of-mouth communications through, for example, Twitter, which has become the lifeline for people affected by the earthquake. There is no doubt that the SNS play a vital role in spreading information and helping people understand what is happening over the long term. However, before there is a consensus on what is true or accurate, there are moments in which people spread inaccurate information that stokes fear.
C. When people do not know what to believe, they imagine the worst.
D. The panic can drive people into hording, causing a shortage in food, water, and other necessities.
E. People may also try to run away and bog down the public transportation systems.
F. People get stressed and worried, especially when there is a power outage, and looting, sexual violence, and other criminal activities may result.
G. A significant reduction in commercial activities and productivity can have a tremendous effect on the nation’s economy in the short term.
We must make sure that these situations I describe above are avoided. The freedom of press, of course, must be respected in the long haul, but it is not necessarily right for the government to tell the media everything based on “what they believe is to be happening,” because the government will be unable to assume responsibility for the panic that the information may create.
Should the government start communicating what is happening and what they’re doing in real time, they will likely be inundated with criticisms and alternate plans put forward by the pundits. “Dump the seawater!” “Supply electrical power!” “Use helicopters to dump water!” They’ve gone through all the ideas and are pursuing the best plan they can think of. If they waste any time and delay their decisions, even for one second, a catastrophe will surely follow. They don’t have the time to listen to or respond to the criticisms and alternate proposals.
All we can do at the moment is to believe that they are making the right decisions and are following through. What plan they follow and in which order should only be determined by the procedures that have been in the working for a long time and the decisions made by people who are actually on the ground.
Because of the reasons I mention above, we will never find out from the government what’s happening and what they’re doing in real time. It is also possible that things are happening that the government does not know about. But then, what could we do, even if we knew?
3. The government may intentionally delay providing information, but I believe it will not try to manufacture information or minimize the situation. No one can keep the facts hidden for long. Anyone can measure the radiation levels with the right instruments. There are so many people involved with the plant that it will be impossible to hide facts.
4. Therefore, at the moment there should be no reason to panic, be cooped up at home, or try to leave Tokyo, just because “the government is untrustworthy,” if you live in Tokyo or to the west of Tokyo. (I do not, however, blame you if you don’t feel good about the government we have today.)
5. Currently, the danger level at Fukushima is graded at Level 5. The nuclear accident at the Three Mile Island was also rated at Level 5, and all pregnant women and children within a 10 mile radius were told to evacuate. Nevertheless, the evacuation zone was not extended beyond that. The Japanese government has already asked everyone within the 20 Km radius to evacuate. That should be a wide enough area with enough margins built in.
The American government is asking people within an 80 Km range to leave, but that is not because “the Americans have information that the Japanese do not.” It is possible that the Americans are calling for evacuation from a larger area, because they have less information than the Japanese government. We should also remember that it is normal for the foreigners to leave quickly, when there is a disaster. It would be difficult for foreigners, who do not speak Japanese, for example, to go to the hospital, gather information, and find shelter.
When there is a political unrest or a natural disaster abroad, the Japanese government is quick to warn its countrymen to leave the country. Should a disaster of this magnitude occur in another country, the Japanese government would not limit the evacuation zone to an 80 Km range. Instead, it would ask all Japanese to leave that country and prohibit anyone to travel there.
There is no reason to worry about the 80 Km evacuation zone set by the Americans.
