IAEA says disaster risk decreasing at Fukushima
Published in Saudi Press Agency on 19 - 03 - 2011

Akhir 14, 1432 H/March 19, 2011, SPA -- The risk of a worst-case nuclear disaster at
Japan's Fukushima power plant is decreasing every day, dpa quoted a senior
official of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) as saying
Saturday in Vienna.
"I think as the days go by, and as we see now electricity being
connected to those (reactor) units, the efforts with the water, that
that risk is reducing day by day," senior technical officer Graham
Andrew reporters.
He specifically mentioned the ongoing injection of seawater into
the tsunami-stricken reactors to keep them from overheating.
"So things are going in the right direction," Andrew said.
However, Andrew allowed that there still was a risk that the
situation escalates. "Could we have something unexpected? Most
certainly," he said.
