Yes, because running contaminated water through TWO crappy filtration systems that don't work makes for good publicity!

"On September 21, 2021, announced that five more filters in ALPS were found to be damaged, and contamination had been detected near some of the filters.

"Would the situation then improve if the undertreated water undergoes a second round of ALPS treatment? 'The answer is still unknown,' said the insider. He added that the discharge plan provided by TEPCO neither explained how to ensure the nuclear-contaminated wastewater would meet discharge standards after treatment, nor did it include an impact analysis of the substandard water discharge.

"'So far, TEPCO has only dealt with 0.25 percent of the nuclear-contaminated wastewater with a second round of treatment. It hasn't disclosed a timeline for the second round of treatment [for all the undertreated wastewater], nor has it ever publicized a plan on it,' he told the Global Times.
TEPCO's passive attitude has chilled the heart of all the parties in and out of who are concern about the discharge.'"

Detailed evidence exposes Japan's lies, loopholes in -contaminated wastewater plan

By Huang Lanlan, June 08, 2023

" at first only listed 64 types of including H-3 and C-14 as a (data) foundation for the works including monitoring and analysis, emission control, and environmental impact assessment. These 64 radionuclides did not include the uranium isotope and certain other α-nuclides, which have long half-lives while some are highly toxic.

"TEPCO's exclusion of the radionuclides mentioned above has greatly compromised the effectiveness of its monitoring work, as well as the credibility of its environmental impact assessment result, the insider stressed.

"In the process of treating the nuclear-contaminated wastewater, the slight particle shedding of chemical precipitants and inorganic adsorbents in the ALPS may cause some radionuclides to exist in a colloidal state, the insider explained.

"Therefore, TEPCO's assumption that all nuclides in nuclear-contaminated wastewater in the ALPS are water-soluble is obviously invalid, said the insider. 'TEPCO should scientifically and comprehensively analyze whether colloidal nuclides are present in the nuclear-contaminated wastewater based on the long-term operation experience of its ALPS system,' he noted.
