TEPCO confirms leak of radioactive water

Tokyo Electric Power Co. (TEPCO) on Sunday said that about three liters of radioactive water has leaked from a second underground storage tank at the Fukushima Daiichi power plant.

The latest problem was confirmed after TEPCO said late Friday night that nearly 120 tons of contaminated water may have leaked into the soil from one of the seven storage tanks at the complex, destroyed by a series of explosions in the days after the March 2011 earthquake and tsunami, local media reported

TEPCO said that around 10,400 tons of radioactive water, cleansed of cesium, remains in the second tank.

The tank is adjacent to the one where the initial leak was reported, according to TEPCO.
