Pacific Ocean contaminated with Radiation

TEPCO officials say they have tested water from the ocean, where water from the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant runs off, and it tested positive for radiation.

Iodine 131 was 126.7 times higher than the legal level, cesium 134 was 24.8 higher, and cesium 137 was 16.5 times higher. Cobalt 58 was below the legal limit.

This was the first time the Tokyo Electric Power Company tested the ocean water. They say they will conduct more tests, over a wider area.
