Japan’s discharge of contaminated wastewater from the Fukushima Daiichi plant into the Pacific has reached its third anniversary. TEPCO says 22 rounds have released about 173,000 tonnes of tritium-containing water. Fisheries groups remain opposed without fishermen’s and the public’s understanding, citing import restrictions, falling seafood prices and insufficient government support.
