Radioactive water leaking into ocean
The Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO), which operates Japan’s Fukushima nuclear plant, has confirmed that the site is leaking radioactive water into the Pacific Ocean.
A spokesman for the company has said that the actual impact on the ocean is limited, but in the past weeks TEPCO has been unable to explain why levels of radioactive caesium in groundwater at the Fukushima plant have soared to 100 times previous levels.
Search continues in Blue Mountains
One of the largest searches to have been mounted in the Blue Mountains regions of NSW is continuing a week after 23-year-old Sydneysider Gary Tweedle went missing.
Tweedle left Leura’s Fairmont Resort in the early hours of last Tuesday morning, disappearing into nearby bushland after being sighted just 400m from the resort. He later called friends at the resort, telling them he was lost and trying to work out where he was.
Tweedle’s father has travelled from Britain to join the search, conducted by police and more than 700 emergency workers and volunteers. Despite temperatures dropping below zero, police are hopeful of finding Tweedle alive and will reassess the search at the end of the week.
