Fukushima Nuclear Plant Resumes Release of Treated Water After Valve Issue

Tokyo. The release of nuclear-contaminated wastewater into the sea from the already troubled Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant resumed on Thursday afternoon after a projection that a 'valve' in the water storage tank may have malfunctioned, Kyodo News reported.

The 'discharge' was automatically stopped on Wednesday afternoon after an abnormal system warning was issued during the water release process.
