'  At Fukushima, they are dealing with massive amounts of groundwater that flow through the property, and the endless pouring that must be kept up 00/0/000 to keep things from getting worse. Recently there appears to be subsidence issues and liquefaction under the plant.  TEPCO has decided to pump the water out of these buildings. However, pumping water out of the buildings is only going to increase the flow rate and create more of these ground issues around the reactors. An enormous undertaking - but one that needs to be considered for long-term preservation of the integrity of the site - is channelling the water away, like a drain tile installed around the perimeter of a house with a leaky basement, but on an epic scale.  Without this effort, the soils will further deteriorate, structural shift will occur, and subsequently the contents of the pools will shift too.
