Rainwater from the areas around reactors one, two and three, which melted down during the March 2011 disaster, flows into the inner breakwater where the rockfish was caught in May.

The water being released now is diluted and much less contaminated.

Less than 40% of the water is supposed to be treated. Apparently those fishes are supposed to come from the port a zone they can't even contain. Keep in mind how many times did TEPCO lie.
