Abstract
The spent nuclear fuel reprocessing plant in Rokkasho, Japan, has been undergoing final testing since March 2006. The concentrations of 129I in environmental water samples collected around the reprocessing plant were measured from 2005 to 2012. The 129I concentrations in water samples of the brackish lake adjacent to a plant from 2006 to 2008 which the spent fuel rods were cut and chemically processed, was higher than the background level. The major source of 129I in the lake was dominated by the direct deposition of 129I from the atmosphere than that from the ocean.
