– NUCLEAR ACCIDENT INTERIM REPORT / Fears slowed SPEEDI info (The Daily Yomiuri, Dec. 30, 2011):
The System for Prediction of Environmental Emergency Dose Information (SPEEDI)–the government computer system that projects the dispersal of radioactive substances–was designed to pinpoint which areas should be evacuated after a nuclear accident. However, the government initially withheld SPEEDI’s projections after the Fukushima nuclear crisis erupted, claiming that releasing the data “would cause unnecessary panic.”
The interim report by the government panel investigating the crisis at the Fukushima No. 1 nuclear power plant says each organization involved in this process lacked awareness of their responsibility. The report urges these entities to improve how SPEEDI is operated to better protect residents’ lives and their dignity.
The Education, Science, Culture, Sports and Technology Ministry oversees SPEEDI. The system estimates where radioactive material will spread based on data, including figures provided by the Nuclear and Industrial Safety Agency (NISA) on the amount of radioactive material released.
However, the ministry decided such data would be unavailable due to the loss of power at the plant following the massive March 11 earthquake. That evening, it began projecting how much radioactive material would leak every hour, on the assumption that one becquerel was released per hour–a figure in line with Nuclear Safety Commission guidelines.
This data was shared with NISA, the commission and the Fukushima prefectural government. However, none of these entities knew how to make maximum use of this information.
Residents near the nuclear plant started evacuating on the evening of March 11. On this point, the report says SPEEDI was useful.
“[Its projection] was at least effective for determining that residents should evacuate,” the report said.
The science ministry, NISA and the commission calculated the projected spread of radioactive material from the crippled plant using SPEEDI. NISA submitted some of SPEEDI’s results to the Prime Minister’s Office after 1:30 a.m. on March 12.
However, as the results were accompanied by documents suggesting the data “were not very reliable,” they were not passed to then Prime Minister Naoto Kan.
The ministry came under growing pressure from the media to reveal the SPEEDI results. On March 15, the ministry had made projections for what would happen if all radioactive material was discharged from the nuclear plant. However, it did not release the figures for fear of panicking the public.
Part of the reason for keeping the data under wraps lay with the disconnect over whether responsibility for SPEEDI operations rested with the ministry or the commission.
Eventually, the Prime Minister’s Office ordered the commission be put in charge of SPEEDI. However, the commission continued to withhold some data churned out by the system.
The ministry received a request to disclose more information on March 24. The ministry, NISA and the commission discussed what data should be made public, and concluded information that was not highly accurate should not be released.
However, public criticism of the lack of available information became louder. The organizations eventually relented and released all their SPEEDI data by May 3.

Confusing govt policy
The decision to issue evacuation instructions to residents living near the stricken nuclear plant was made by a handful of staffers at the Prime Minister’s Office. This would normally have been the responsibility of local government headquarters in the area, but local authorities were not functioning in the hours after the disaster struck.
The government-issued evacuation plans were confusing. The interim report is scathing on this point, saying that residents near the plant were “getting mixed messages” from the government.
At 8:50 p.m. on March 11, Fukushima Gov. Yuhei Sato instructed residents living within a two-kilometer radius of the plant to evacuate. This was the same range as that used in evacuation exercises.
But at a meeting held on the fifth floor of the Prime Minister’s Office, Haruki Madarame, chairman of the commission; Eiji Hiraoka, director general of NISA; and other officials said the evacuation zone should be expanded to three kilometers from the plant, based on the International Atomic Energy Agency’s guidelines.
Hiraoka was especially adamant the evacuation area should have a radius of three kilometers.
“Some evacuation drills have included areas within a three-kilometer radius,” he said.
At 9:23 p.m.–about half an hour after the first evacuation instruction was issued–the government ordered all residents within three kilometers of the nuclear plant to leave the area.
The evacuation zone was further widened twice on March 12. At 5:44 a.m., the government instructed residents within a 10-kilometer radius of the plant to evacuate, and at 6:25 p.m. the zone’s radius was doubled to 20 kilometers after a hydrogen explosion at the No. 1 reactor earlier that day.
At 11 a.m. on March 15, the government instructed residents between 20 and 30 kilometers from the leaking plant to stay indoors.
As the evacuation areas spread further and further, the Minami-Soma city government instructed residents to move away from the city. The Namiemachi town government told its residents who had initially evacuated to other parts of the town to instead take shelter in Nihonmatsu in the prefecture.
These evacuation routes fell directly under the radioactive material being spewed out of the plant’s reactors.
SPEEDI’s projections had predicted the material would spread over these areas. The interim report says, “[Residents] had no option but to follow instructions issued by their mayors, who were unaware” of the potential danger.
Moreover, the central government and the Fukushima prefectural government differed over the amount of radiation exposure that should be the standard for determining which residents should undergo radiation screening. The safety commission did not properly resolve this “double standard.”

Radiation exposure is increased by a factor of a trillion. Inhaling even the tiniest particle, that’s the danger.
Yo: So making comparisons with X-rays and CT scans has no meaning. Because you can breathe in radioactive material.
Hirose: That’s right. When it enters your body, there’s no telling where it will go. The biggest danger is women, especially pregnant women, and little children. Now they’re talking about iodine and cesium, but that’s only part of it, they’re not using the proper detection instruments. What they call monitoring means only measuring the amount of radiation in the air. Their instruments don’t eat. What they measure has no connection with the amount of radioactive material.
Dr. Helen Caldicott (Co-founder of Physicians for Social Responsibility):
You’ve bought the propaganda from the nuclear industry. They say it’s low-level radiation. That’s absolute rubbish. If you inhale a millionth of a gram of plutonium, the surrounding cells receive a very, very high dose. Most die within that area, because it’s an alpha emitter. The cells on the periphery remain viable. They mutate, and the regulatory genes are damaged. Years later, that person develops cancer. Now, that’s true for radioactive iodine, that goes to the thyroid; cesium-137, that goes to the brain and muscles; strontium-90 goes to bone, causing bone cancer and leukemia. It’s imperative … that you understand internal emitters and radiation, and it’s not low level to the cells that are exposed. Radiobiology is imperative to understand these days.”
