April 14th According to a report by Yonhap News Agency on the 14th, the Atomic Energy Safety Committee of South Korea (hereinafter referred to as the former Security Committee of South Korea) said on the 14th that it had written to the Japan Atomic Energy Regulatory Commission to convey its concerns about the Japanese government’s decision to discharge wastewater from the Fukushima nuclear power plant to the sea.

According to the report, the letter requested the Japan Atomic Energy Regulatory Commission to objectively and independently review the Tokyo Electric Power Nuclear Wastewater Treatment Plan to determine whether it meets international standards, effectively monitor the implementation process and release the results in a timely and transparent manner.

By April 19, South Korea’s former Security Council will send another letter to the Japan Atomic Energy Regulatory Commission, asking about the review procedures and monitoring plans of the nuclear wastewater treatment plan.

In addition, South Korea’s “Former Security Committee” plans to expand the expertise and equipment of the Atomic Energy Safety Technical Institute during the year, and increase the monitoring cycle and location of nuclear wastewater discharge.
