The Japanese government may announce as early as Tuesday plans to dispose of radioactive wastewater from the crippled Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant into the Pacific Ocean, sources with knowledge of the matter said Friday.
知情人士4月9日透露，日本政府可能最早于4月13日宣布，计划将曾遭受重创的福岛第一核电站的核污水排入太平洋。

The sources said the government will convene a meeting of relevant ministers and announce the decision as early as next Tuesday.
知情人士称，日本政府最早将于4月13日召开内阁会议，正式宣布这一决定。

While treated, the radiation-tainted water, stored in tanks at the plant in Japan's northeast, is expected to reach capacity next year.
大量经过处理但仍具有放射性的水全部储存在核电站的储存罐内，预计到明年，储存罐容量将会达到极限。

The plant had its key cooling functions knocked out after being battered by a massive earthquake-triggered tsunami a decade ago, resulting in the world's worst nuclear crisis since Chernobyl in 1986.
十年前，地震引发巨型海啸导致位于日本东北部的福岛第一核电站关键冷却系统严重损毁，酿成自1986年切尔诺贝利核事故之后最严重的核事故。

The tainted water contains radioactive tritium as a result of being used to cool down melted nuclear fuel at the plant in Fukushima Prefecture.
核电站引入海水给反应堆降温，因此持续产生含有放射性氚的核污水。
