A top official says that is likely because of a partial core meltdown which we have known from the very beginning was going on but they did not want to tell us. and we are told officials outside the complex discovered dangerously high levels of radiation? seawater up to a mile away. and now dominic from osaka, japan. hello, dominic. reporter: those levels in the sea up to four times above safety standards, enough, actually, to induce radiation sickness in anyone who actually finds themself caught up in the water or consuming anything that is living in that water. including seaweed and seafood and people still eating from the sea in the north although the authorities are saying, lebanese do not, for the team being. and it was supposed to be containment process, controlling the temperatures at fuel rods but they cannot do that because ....
Brave workers at the stricken nuclear plant to head off the catastrophic core meltdown that has been the tier of the entire world for the the fear of the entire world the last couple of days. they are making some gains. they are getting seawater pumped through fire engines, high powered pumps hitting the stricken reactors to try and cool it down and try to bring the radiation levels down. in the past, about two hours this he have been doing this to reactor four, that is one of the worst and most dangerous of the damaged reactors. no word on what they have done there. they have stopped that but we know that they were doing the same thing prior to that with reactor three which was another dangerous reactor and in fact the result of that, 13 hours of throwing this water on there is in fact the situation stabilized to some degree. what they have also done, geraldo is, plugged in long extension cords into reactors one and two and later this afternoon sunday japan time they will turn on th ....

First. dealing with the issues at the troubled nuclear reactors. folks here are working around the clock to try to prevent a catastrophic core meltdown at one or several of those reactors. what they have been doing is spraying down these facilities with high powered water hoses from fire engines, and, it seems to be doing the job at least preventing the situation from getting worse. stabilization is the word we are hearing from the authorities. levels of radiation and temperature not going up. being controlled or even reduced to some extent. allowing the other workers there at the facility to try to connect electrical lines to the various reactors to try to get the cooling pumps started for a long-range controlling of the situation. the reactors 5 and 6 which were not damaged have had some good luck with that. and now the lines are being connected to reactors 1 and 2, the least damaged of the four main damaged reactors, and they ....
