Title: Fukushima govt deleted SPEEDI data
Source: Daily Yomiuri
Date: March 22, 2012
The Fukushima prefectural government deleted data provided by the central government on the projected spread of radioactive materials just after the crisis at the Fukushima No. 1 nuclear power plant broke out, sources said Wednesday.The central government sent data compiled by the System for Prediction of Environmental Emergency Dose Information (SPEEDI) to the prefectural government via e-mail. However, the data sent between March 11, when the crisis began, and March 15, 2011, was deleted. [...]
“At the time, everything was in a state of confusion. We can’t confirm who deleted the e-mails,” an official at the prefecture’s disaster management headquarters said.

This is right up there with the US and Canada stopping rad monitors last April.
Well, actually they stopped disseminating the info. I'm sure they've been monitoring right along.

So… what would be a legitimate reason to delete public records in the midst of a crisis? It is not as if someone just misplaced a single copy of written material. In corporate and/or government email systems that information would be:
1: stored and backed up in multiple locations.
2: password or login protected, such that any person deleting email would have logged-in using identifying info.
3: total deletion (including the backups) would usually require higher-level passwords and system admin privileges.
If the officials in the nuclear mafia want us to believe this horse-plop about not knowing EXACTLY WHO did it, WHEN they did it, WHERE they were, and WHO ORDERED the deletion/cover-up then they need to explain how and why any random person could delete critical information in this manner. It is utter nonsense and impossible to believe.
would need to see extraordinary evidence

good points.

Thank you… but I gotta run. I have plans to delete government documents with my phone. Then i'm gonna sell shares of the Brooklyn Bridge to the public…. since so many of them WANT to be fooled I may as well make a buck, right?

Read what he said carefully: the central goverment sent the data by email to the local govenment. the email got deleted not the data. all they had to do was call up and say "hey, could you resend me that data package? I accidentally deleted it along with my amazon.jp spam. thanks"
is it laziness? Loss-of-face? or just plain cover-it-and-my-a$$-up?
the data is there. no one wants it out (no one other than ENENews, that is). hear no evil, speak no evil, see no evil.

Good thinking, gotta, "the data is there". I probably is – on some servers – in the cloud – in somebody's briefcase – offsite backup – someone has a copy.
Hey, Anonymous, do you read Enenews? Can you help with this?

"We can't confirm" is not the same as "we don't know", by the way.
The dog ate their homework.

Spot On!
I'm sure when the Japanese Nuclear Authorities met with all the PR folks the first thing they were told was to lose their data ASAP!
No smoking guns = deniability!

They'll never be able to predict the spread of radiation from these disasters.

Hehe guess they are only doing what all other countries goverments did that had a meltdown…. Everything gets deleted to the top secret file,s…. We can bet all the countries that have a nuclear power plant build projects on going will have seen first days news then there goverment never dare show any more…. Should think they will have millions invested so no choice but to chop the news reports so the public dont have a clue whats going down.

Internet computers are backed up regularly. It is not really possible to delete an email from the entire system. The trouble is, finding them takes a court order in most places. But if the Japanese government really wanted to recover these, I find it hard to imagine they do not exist anywhere. That is a big if, however.

Hair, hair to that, dharmasyd! The documents might pop up on Wikileaks some time too, although they are fighting on a lot of different fronts simultaneously these days.

Information wants to be free. Truth is not the friend of nuke.

All of us should start saving thread topics items that we post, to disc…
That way they will not be able to "lose data" in an effort to practice CYA!
It is easy and only takes a second and it does not take up much room!
