IAEA advises Japan to consider water discharge from Fukushima plant

Juan Carlos Lentijo, director of the IAEA Division of Nuclear Fuel Cycle and Waste Technology, attends a press conference in Tokyo on Feb. 17, 2015, after reviewing Japan's efforts to scrap the crippled Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant. The International Atomic Energy Agency suggested Japan consider releasing radioactive water into the ocean, after drastically reducing its radiation levels, to enhance safety at the Fukushima complex.

                      Photo taken Feb. 15, 2016, shows a worker at the crippled Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant in northeastern Japan, wearing a mask over half his face. Workers are not required to wear full-face masks in most areas of the complex as radiation levels have declined. Tokyo Electric Power Co., the operator, is still working to contain a buildup of toxic water at the complex, which faced triple meltdowns almost five years ago. (Kyodo) ==Kyodo
