International organizations such as the IAEA and the u.s. NuclearRegulatory Commission, has confirmed the reactor's condition as stable and secure. The u.s. Government recommends that u.s. citizens avoid allunnecessary travel to areas that are represented by the Government ofJapan on the map (Japan version of the map).
The current level of radiation in Japan
Except for the neighboring areas near nuclear power plants, there arelevels of radiation detected in Japan is not dangerous. Tokyo is theradiation contamination NOTwithin, as it is located more than 200 km (124miles) from from the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant facilities.Radiation levels in Tokyo is similar to New York City.
You can confirm the international comparison of the level of radiationhere.
The decision of the Government to address the issue of contaminated water
To address the problem of contaminated water in nuclear power plant the Fukushima Daiichi TEPCO, the Government of Japan has decided,mobilizing the expertise of all the Government authorities, a moreproactive role in taking countermeasures against the problem.
