Concerns over ”radioactive wastewater from the North”... Uranium test in all Incheon waters found ”no abnormalities” = South Korea

The Incheon Metropolitan City Health and Environment Research Institute announced on the 6th that it had conducted a special detailed uranium inspection of all waters off Incheon, including the Ganghwa Sea area, and found no abnormalities.
The investigation was launched due to concerns that radioactive wastewater may have been released from a uranium refinery in Pyeongsan County, North Hwanghae Province, North Korea, and flowed into the waters off Incheon.
The survey was conducted after the area was covered by media, YouTube, and social media. The first survey of the coast of Ganghwa conducted by Incheon City on July 3rd revealed that the minimum detectable levels of tritium and cesium were
The radioactivity (MDA) was shown to be minimal. A special joint investigation by the South Korean government on July 4th also confirmed that there were no abnormalities in the cesium and uranium levels.
As public concerns continued, a special survey was conducted on July 30th, in which Mayor Yoo Jeong-bok personally collected samples, followed by a second survey and detailed surveys of the surrounding sea area on August 1st.
In addition, uranium surveys were conducted at 34 regular survey points in the marine water quality monitoring network and two points at Ganghwa Beach, for a total of 45 points, and the values at all points were higher than the concentrations in natural seawater.
"There was no evidence of wastewater inflow from North Korea's uranium refinery," said Kwak Wan-seong, director of the Incheon Institute for Health and Environment. "The uranium concentration at 45 locations around the Incheon coast was
"The levels are within the normal range and are not of concern."
