India Halts All Food Imports From Japan After Fukushima Fish Found With Excess Radioactivity
After dumping thousands of tons of radioactive water in the sea, Japan appears to have been stunned to find that the radioactive content of various fish has surged and is now above just imposed radiation safety thresholds. From Kyodo: "Japan hastily set a legal limit Tuesday for the permitted level of
radioactive iodine in seafood as safety concerns spread overseas in the
wake of continuing leaks contaminated water into the Pacific Ocean from
the crippled Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant. The limit of 2,000 bequerels per kilogram set by the Ministry of Health,
Labor and Welfare for radioactive iodine in marine products such as
fish and shellfish is the same as that already adopted for vegetables,
Chief Cabinet Secretary Yukio Edano told a press conference. The imposition of the limit followed the detection by Japanese
authorities 4,080 bequerels per kilogram of radioactive iodine in young
sand lance caught Friday off Kitaibaraki in Ibaraki Prefecture, which
prompted the health ministry to consider setting a limit for fish and
clams. Different young sand lance, also caught near Kitaibaraki, were found to
be contaminated with 526 bequerels per kilogram of radioactive cesium,
exceeding the legal limit of 500 bequerels already set by Japan." And now that Japan has another crisis scenario fall out to deal with, other countries no longer have faith that Japan has any control over the situation and are imposing complete bans on Japanese food imports: first India, and soon everyone else. Expect sushi prices to surge momentarily.
From Kyodo:
India said Tuesday it will suspend food imports from Japan for about three months to prevent food contaminated with radioactive substances leaked from the crisis-hit Fukushima nuclear power plant from entering the country, Press Trust of India news agency reported.
Specific food items subject to the suspension were not immediately disclosed, but marine products and fresh fruits are expected to be among them.
India's health ministry said the import suspension will last until it can obtain reliable data proving that the levels of leaked radioactive substances are safe, according to PTI.
Not to be outdone, Japan once again has proven it is completely clueless, and is dealing with the catastrophe in the only way it knows - denial:
Chief Cabinet Secretary Yukio Edano dismissed the need for an immediate ban on shipments of marine products from the affected areas, but he pledged to toughen inspections to ensure that contaminated products do not reach markets.
The government will make further efforts to provide sufficient information to other countries through diplomatic channels regarding its efforts to contain the leak of radioactive substances from the plant, the top government spokesman added.
Given that radioactive substances exceeding safety limits have only been found in a small number of samples so far, Edano said, ''We want to proceed by monitoring (contamination) closely and grasping the broader situation rather than immediately regulating'' shipments.
And while the diplomatic wrangling over who is right and who is wrong is about to spike in earnest, Japan can kiss its fishing industry goodbye, as well as scrap food exports for the indefinite future.

The pollies will show up screaming that BRIC & POMO will save the world 'o equities, and that Japan will have Fukushima cleaned up and like brand new in a few weeks.
Step right up to The Bernank's Funhouse, and be exhilarated just like you were in 2008, folks, because you'll never be wrong being long with The Bernank Put under yo ass.
"brand new" or glowing new ?
Beaming.
Worse, much worse. Report from on site and on the ground in NuKuFuKu although dated.

The article doesn't speak of the SFP until two thirds into the second page. They report that the danger posed by them is greater than the cores yet there is little or no reporting on them.
Radiation too high? No problem. Simply raise the "safe" level!
Nothing is fucked here Dude. Nothing is fucked. They're a bunch of fucking amateurs!
http://www.nytimes.com/2011/04/06/world/asia/06nuclear.html?_r=2&hp
Hidehiko Nishiyama, deputy director-general of Japan's Nuclear and Industrial Safety Agency (NISA), said Japan was trying to adhere to its obligations under the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea to avoid contamination of the ocean.
http://www.reuters.com/article/2011/04/05/us-japan-idUSTRE72A0SS20110405...
Japan dumping radioactive waste into the sea for scientific purposes. Next they'll tell us that the purpose is to spread the risk thereby reducing systemic risk. Sounds all too familiar. AAA contamination rating by raising the contamination safety levels.
THIS is definitely bullshi... I mean bullish for the Japanese fishing industry. And whats bullish for their fishing industry is bullish for the whole auto industry and whats bullish for the suto industry is bullish for home builders here in the US of A...... YEE HAW!
Teh Bernank did himself a TEPCO.
NOT 2% inflation, 200,000%!
Sorwee...

Brawndo! It's got what Nuclear Plants Crave!
How much ya wanna bet that most countries will raise "acceptable" levels of radioactive contamination in food and water in order to avoid a systemic financial breakdown? Black swans to the left of me, black swans to the right, stuck in the middle again.
Please keep in mind the incredibly short half life of radio-iodine. Yes this is a problem, but not a permanent one. If they find fish with excessive levels of Plutonium, on the other hand, we are fucked.
OT...NHK reports Reactors 5 and 6 flooding to threaten EmergDieselGens in turbine bldgs.that power coolant pumps.

Also see youtube today by "leakspinner" in Tokyo [he refers to 4 and 5, then corrects to 5 and 6.]:

Don't worry, Tepco is in charge.
...yep, here comes the Japanese Govt, an even bigger collection of clowns, to take over: "All is well, the fish will stop glowing, the Yen will stop rocketing, the stock market will hold and we'll even find tenants for Tokyo!"
Good grief! ... if a few gallons of radioactive groundwater running into the turbine building could bring down the emergency diesel generators, what the fuck did they expect even a small tsunami would do? What kind of "emergencies" did they plan for ... running out of rice in the canteen? Blowing a lightbulb in the carpark?
But...but...brother Truth, the criminal syndicate known as Wall Street has been telling everyone that the tsunami was uber bullish, and the syndicate has been funneling the sheeple into the EWJ...which is supposed to be the value of the century.
Isn't it the case that radioactive fish [and other things] are positive to GDP revisions? Wait...now where are the unicorns again?

So. Instead of an International response to this disaster we will have unilateral action.
Not only are TEPCO a bunch of selfinterested fuckers.
The UN is way way ahead of TEPCO.

"This should come as no surprise to readers of this blog. Except IQ 1.45 and his other aliases."
That would account for the junks then ......... (:
Extremely sad. As a collective human species, we've made some poor decisions. We have blatantly disregarded the delicate balance of life, the complex interconnected nature of all living existence.
But we have some really cool cars...and trucks....and ipads....and flatscreen TVs. Nature is way over-rated anyway.
:)
For that I quote Dimitry Orlov:
Here's a particularly nice quote from the Beatitudes: “Blessed are the poor in spirit.” Never has a truer phrase been written. It is rather difficult to embrace such basic tenets while remaining within a culture that has elevated avariciousness and rapaciousness to the status of virtues. But here is a key insight: being poor on purpose is much easier than being poor as a result of suddenly having less than you are accustomed to having. Voluntary poverty is a hell of a lot easier than involuntary poverty.
Poor in spirit != poverty, WTF??
Not to mention wars! Those time life videos are amazing. So glad we fought all those wars so i can watch videos of brown people dying while i drink beer and order (insert random enthic group weve destroyed here) food for delivery.
Agreed. No.....(oops. dropped my pizza) Now they are making a new set with the way cool camera in the nose bomb and missiles. can't wait for the dvd. Far out, they are whacking black folks now too.
Nature looks much, much better in 3D-HD anyway.
Eat more steaks.
But not Kobe steaks.
Tube steaks?
You got slapped down for talking about wieners? Come on, even a hotdog can taste good enough with enough mustard (and alcohol).
Don't forget the Sauerkraut! ;-)
The Japanese enjoy playing Russian Roulette eating Fugu (the poisonous blowfish). Why not expand the game to potential nuclear death from sushi?
I sense a great marketing opportunity here for Indians with serious thrill issues...
I also sense a great marketing opportunity in India for chicken imports. With nuclear fish and beef off-the-menu for hindi, I think the Colonel should make an entrance...
PS, the Colonel is already here and growing like a cancerous chicken, dotting the landscape in competition with McD's and Papa Johns and.... you get the drift.
The fast forrible food invasion in India is well underway.
ORI
And what do the "steaks" eat, eh? Can you say accumoooooolation?
Revenge! Revenge! hahahahahahahahaha!
Maybe now they'll leave the freakin' whales alone. Gotta think the blubber is gonna collect a fair amount of the hot stuff.
3 month ban? R u kidding? In 6 months it will only get worse! And after that? What exactly are the 1/2 lives of Chlorine-37 and other ungodly unnatural unseen molecules?
How 'bout an xtra thick slice of Fuck-u-Shima toro sashimi?
Chlorine-37 half life I believe is less than an hour. Chlorine-36 is 300,000 years. Plutionum-239 is 24,000 years.
Ridiculous.
on a long enough timeline the survival rate for everyone drops to zero.
on a short enough timeline the survival rate for the fuku 50 seems like forever!
too soon?
I'll take that toro rolled up on some Chlorine-36 sushi then.
Yes. Beyond ridiculous. And don't you just love "acceptable" "within" limits of radiation more at "acceptable" "within" ranges of cancer probability. Un-fucka-believable!
People always forget about the Cesium-137 with a whopping half-life of 30 years. That crap is water soluble and it's all over the planet and increasing in volume as we speak.
Cesium-137 is what caused all of the Chernobyl birth defects, so if the world gets hit with high levels of Cesium-137 espect a lot of ugly mutant humans in your future.
BOJ in the market buying fish to prop that market. Storage will be a problem. Hummm fill reactor 4 with frozen fish. Wala
This sounds fishy
Hmmm... poison, poison, tasty fish...
i sense a new version of that show "dangerous catch" coming out
the real danger being if you eat the fuckers
I see a new Survivor. And we're all contestants.
yes gall, unfortunately that appears to be true!
i wonder how many looks i would get bringing a geiger counter with me to check food products in the store.
then again, that may just be a way to wake more sheeple.
oooo! I love that idea. Thanks, fiat.
you are welcome. occaisionally my brain fires a few snapses into a good idea. lol.
It would be good for a laugh, if nothing else. Walking around the grocery store with a geiger counter. LOL ;-)
Does your brain require the assistance of ethanol to fire them synapses?
Like that sarc/ New world (global) order and all.
"Wala"?
Not Voila?
Went to the store today to stock up on some tuna. Only one case of the store brand left @ 60 cents a can. Packed 02/11 Shelf life till 02/15. Bought the whole case. Another store tonite.
bought cans of wild salmon and tuna in olive oil. shelf: 09/06. happened to think that the tuna may be from the Gulf and packed in petroleum and Corexit.
Hit Costco today for the salmon and tuna, stayed for the polish sausage!
buying every bottle of quality Sake I can find.
and this may not be a good next few years for California wines.
Store it 55-73 f. in semi darkness on it's side. Keep the corks hydrated and you will do just fine. Love Sake!
You mean "ouala".
Yes good catch.
It's French. "Voila!"
bullish idea. I see two growth markets.
But radiation is good for you...Ann Coulter said so....
But you can't eat radiation. So I guess high precious metal prices and radiation should not be worried about!
Tran has bigger adam's apple than most dudes. Maybe she ate too much radiation and got stuck in "her" throat.
What's radiation?
Ann is just skin and bones. I like her, but she may want to merge with Chelsie Lately?
This is another blow for the fishing industry & Ocean life in general. What a shame.
Dammit now I have to shitcan the fresh red snapper I bought today. I knew it was too cheap.
Nah.. right now it's still fairly localised (sea currents near the shore etc.)
Wait a month or two (when all the young fish and scallops etc. hatch), then it'll be EVERYWHERE. And this, like the oil&corexit&dioxines will not be limited to the northern hemisphere.
The japanese obviously have the possibillity to move and store that (they said lightly) radioactive water onland, don't they? They have chemical storage tanks, transport is possible with barges. Or a giant pipeline through the contaminated area. But that'd be admitting "defeat against the nuclear genie".
Please note it's all cumulative. Once that DNA is damaged.....
If India finds your food dirty, that's as low as you can go.
+1
And yet we haven't done it. What does it say about us ?
What a great success nuclear power is. Basically nuclear power is like having 50 serial killers running in hamster wheels in your house. No one notices when times are good, but if they break out, unimaginable hell breaks loose.
Nuclear needs just as much funding as solar. It's a ridiculous joke this many nuclear power plants are being built rather than solar. Nuclear power plants take decades to come online, so need huge loans over massive time periods. Solar is up straight away and costs have been decreasing quickly.
please compare nuclear output to solar output over physical space.
solar conversion rates per panel too low, softening prices notwithstanding. Need a few leaps of tech to get solar viable on largescale. Sorry Beale.
To the best of my knowledge, solar does not have the ability to wipe out the planet. Throw away the hair dryer? OK.
I reccomend you read this from a guy who gave me a lecture earlier in the year
http://www.r-e-a.net/document-library/events/rea-events-2009/re-tariffs-...
There's lots of preconcieved notions about solar power and it's inability to provide enough power. (If all roofs in the UK were covered with solar panel we'd have over 110% of the power needed for the whole country, that's only one renewable resource) The price of PV is decreasing rapidly and it's almost at the point where it makes sense financially to install them on your home. It's NOT financially viable to build nuclear plants, which prices are increasing dramatically, new safety measures and massive concrete containment vessels. Plus factor the discount rate into a 25yr period.
If oil continues to skyrocket, consumers will buy solar panels for their house. Maybe solar loans, it makes sense. Nuclear makes no sense, decomissioning costs etc. How can companies like EDF afford to build massive new power plants, their primary objective is profit, not safety.
This would amount to letting everyone have free energy, (not reliant on utility's). As everyone knows you cannot control the masses when they have free energy,so solar will not happen .
He's got a good point folks.
They will start metering the Sunshine
They have through Carbon tax/trading.
Its a tax on life.
The radiation issue is just taxing lifespans
First they will rent us the panels, then they will meter the sunshine.
How do them thar solar panels hold up i areas that get hail storms yearly? Golf ball sized. Base ball sized. Soft ball sized. Don't think I'll be investing in solar power anytime soon, as that is where I live.
And yeah, my vehicles show the scars of hail encounters. I don't bother to fix them because it will just happen again next week, next month, next year.
So no, I would not want to have to hassle with the dicks at the insurance company everytime my solar panels got smashed to bits.
Bad idea.
Much easier fukking with poisoned fish and air and water and soil.
How about before you make dumbass comments that show your IQ is that of an inbred monkey, you do some research about thin-film solar panels... or perhaps you could read the post I put up 3 hours before you about my neighbour's place.
Thin film solar panels don't have any glass to smash smart guy. A Major League pitcher could throw a fastball at the fucking thing and it wouldn't be an issue.
Sorry, perhaps I'm being a bit rough on you... But it's these kinds of asinine comments that make people think alternatives to fossil fuels and nuclear power are non-existent.
Lots of moveable tracker-type panels in my neighborhood. The are on a single pedastal and and have a motor that moves them to follow the sun for max efficiency. We had a 100 year windstorm back in December. Lots of them got mangled and bent, pedastals broke. I'm gonn wait just a little longer for a more robust design.
But at least when the 100 year storm hit, it didn't cause them to meltdown and put the entire world's population at risk of developing cancer.
If they had have used a better design for the pedestal, then perhaps the panels would have survived. We get hurricane force winds every fall, sometimes up to 150Kph and the panels on all the roofs in my neck of the woods laugh at them and beg for more!
Money and political will (and the nerve to tell the ruling elites for fuck-off) are what's holding down solar power.
Still not buying it. I'll stick with the nukes thanks.

Hey looks like the global economy is blowing up so we won't need nearly as much energy for a while. Give us a few years to come up with some more efficient ways to do things.
The real enticement for Nuclear is that it is Centrally Controlled, Centrally Managed, Individually Metered.
Notice how there is NEVER any Supportive talk or Goverment Money about Individuals producing their OWN energy?
Notice no real MSM pushed Memes about people generating their OWN power(PV, MicroHydro, Wind, etc).
Centrally OWNED and Controlled are the important parameters.
Yes, lets. Solar panels can be put on your roof and provide power to your home without the need for transmission lines, Nukes? NO! Loads-o-empty roofs out there.
And while we're at it, why don't we use solar shingles instead of the oil-based ones now? This is but one example and I have no stake in this company (not yet at least) : http://www.uni-solar.com/products/residential-products/powershingle/
That said, my neighbour installed some thin film panels, a solar water heater, has a geothermal system providing ambient heat/cooling and a small wind turbine pumping power into a 5KW VRB battery http://www.pdenergy.com/index.html (purchased when it was a Vancouver-based company, not a Chinese one) that's tied to the grid. He gets paid by the utility company and says when the Tesla Model S hits the streets he's going to be one of the first customers. Freedom, true freedom.
If we factored in the cost of obtaining the things that give us power, the true cost (like fighting wars in various shitholes around the world or of the pollution from burning coal etc. etc. blah blah blah, and subsequent healthcare costs, then alternatives like solar, wind and geothermal are equal to, or cheaper than, anything out there.
Unfortunately, that would give too much power to the little people and TPTB can't have that now can they. Power to the people is just that, power BY the people.
Sorry Vast, but I'd rather see 50,000 wind turbines than 1 nuke plant.
you misinterpreted my post and/or I was unclear: I am not supporting and in no way justifying nuclear energy; in fact, I abhor it. Re: solar: I'm all for it but the economies of scale are not there just yet (and that in no way endorses dangerous nuclear by any means and solar is certainly much cheaper now if you factor in nuclear disaster clean-ups and such.)
also as other posters have mentioned the powers that be will lose their control over the masses if solar takes off (you could fast-charge your car for free off of it -- there is new 3D battery tech coming to market that allows for rapid-charging cars in a few mins as per:
http://www.scientificamerican.com/article.cfm?id=new-structure-allows-li... ).
http://www.nytimes.com/2011/04/06/world/asia/06nuclear.html?hp
And what I'm saying is that they most certainly could be if we weren't slaves to the Military Industrial Complex / Fossil Fuel Cartel.
By you saying "please compare nuclear output to solar output over physical space." it creates an impression that having a nuclear power plant is better because it takes up less space... total and utter nonsense. Epic Fail!
Like I said, I couldn't give a rat's ass if we installed a wind turbine in the backyard and put solar panels on every house in my city. However, I don't want to live within 200Km of a nuclear power plant.
I wonder how those poor bastards within 100 clicks of Fukushima feel about their choice of real estate purchases now. Do you think they'll be able to sell their homes?
Having solar panels on your house INCREASES the value of your home because they produce power for over 25 years and require very little maintenance.
I appreciate you clarifying your position, but it's like I said to the numpty who thinks anyone who lives in an area that gets frequent thunderstorms with hail will stop them from benefiting from using solar power. It undermines the technology by spouting that sort of crap.
We need to say FUCK YOU to TPTB and give ourselves true energy independence. When the panels get installed on my roof, I'm taking a photocopy of my ass and faxing it to my utility. When I buy my electric vehicle, I'm doing the same to the head offices of all the major Canadian oil companies. They can all kiss my ass, not on the left side, not on the right, but right in the middle!
Who in his right mind would eat "young sand lance" anyway ?
Don't eat it, problem solved.
A sexually deviant older sand lance?
(Another fucking double post due to ZH e-hiccup)
Oh yes you do eat them as part of a food chain baby.
Wikipedia C&P - Larval forms of this fish are perhaps the most abundant of all fish larvae in areas such as the northwest Atlantic, serving as a major food item for cod, salmon, and other commercially important species
We are all interconnected, one living organism - now not so much
Nothing that a ministerial photo op with actor-fishermen and a mouthful of "recently caught" sushi can't solve.
Seriously catch everything fast, 2 of each species Tuna, sea cucumbers and a ton of seaweed etc.before those species get irradiated completely.
Poor Japan. They look doomed.
Poor us. We look fucked.
So it's a tossup between doomed and fucked then?
Just keeps getting worse.....
not better...
worse...
*facepalm* time for a beer.

No, not doomed, just a little bit confused in the lateral thinking department.
That of course will lead to insurmountable problems which will lead to complete paralysis and social dystopia.

"boots in the water option being considered"
I was listening to NPR this morning talking about how the issue was overblown. Out of nowhere the host said "boy the price on their fish will skyrocket back up as soon as people realize the fish is safe to eat." She said it like it was a done deal. Thanks NPR for setting the record straight.
i always thought npr stood for "never possible reality". seems to be correct.
Yea, NPR has been particularly sycophantic lately. Their hosts are so thoroughly conditioned from propagating USG lies about the economy that they probably believe that nature is going to go along with the fantasy thinking like the sheeple have.
Hate that "excess radiation."
Comfortable with normal radiation in fish.
Flashback:

Could there be some blessing here?
the tuna fishery was under incredible overfishing strain, maybe a reprieve for the species?
....unless they all end up sterile.
Disclosure was long the out-of-control roll and Sapporo last night. P
Yeah - maybe the whales can come out of hiding too.
Insane more then 20 bequerels per kilogram can lead to cancer. If my fishmoger passes on to me 2,000 ill burn his house to the ground.
But then Iceland is so far the place to get your fish. Any west coast or pacific fish is for now and ever off limits.
These people who set these standards better stay far away from me. Polite society has its limits and cancer is that limit.
For the next six mouths its alantic only. After that it might be none.
Iceland is a great place for fish and the best place for how to treat banksters.
+ 55 volcanos.
You guys are worse than me. 55 Volcanoes? The ultimate wheenie(sp) roast!
correct on both counts cossack. you move up a rank! just don't expect a pay increase!
Isn't it afterall a fair revenge that the fish is now able to kill the fishermen ?
in a strange twist of events that appears to be true. however the fish may not be able to reproduce.
Japanese Sushi... MELTS ON YOUR TONGUE!
or is your tongue that melts...
I always mix that one up...
This should allow for Japan's fisheries to repopulate.
Indians don´t appreciate Japanese anyway....
I would actually expect sushi prices to plummit due to lack of demand.
The government will make further efforts to provide sufficient information to other countries through diplomatic channels regarding its efforts to contain the leak of radioactive substances from the plant, the top government spokesman added.
Great! That means we can get it from wikileaks in...oh wait aren't they Guantanamo'ed? Shit. Guess the public can piss off again.
Sure, right after every daily scheduled dump of cooling liquids in Fukushima the "all clear" is sounded.
100 % credibility restored.
I wonder if we will soon see king size whales flying like zeppelins with eight eyes and twenty five fins. Like a 747 cruising on transatlantic atomic fueled propulsion. No lights required the skin sparkles in the sky like a thousand light bulbs. We would have inadvertently stepped changed into a new age of flying fishy mutant hybrids where we would be the two legged dinosaurs of old....heading towards... the exit.
you're hired!
Please report for work with your dosimeter as soon as the LSD wears off.

Thanks for sharing the link.
Aren't these pricks worried about sending tainted food to countries rather than losing potential business-- I mean really? If they feel no guilt sending radioactive fish just to earn another worthless piece of yen then fuck 'em.
No one expects to pay for radioactive fish. Yen is in a major selloff.
