TOKYO, Japan - Workers begin the process around a supermarket in Tokyo's Setagaya Ward on Nov. 1, 2011, to discover and remove radioactive material believed to be buried underground. High levels of radiation have been detected at the site but they are unlikely to be related to the nuclear crisis at the Fukushima Daiichi plant, according to the science ministry.
