These methods include a campaign using videos and posters, Questionnaire (activity record)屋内移動屋外屋内移動屋外屋内移動屋外屋内移動屋外屋内移動屋外3/11(金)3/12(土)3/13(日)3/14(月)3/15(火)区分月日滞在場所30691215182124地名・施設名時刻①②①②④⑥②⑤⑥②⑦⑥(飲料水)⑦(買い物)⑦②・⑧③②③③①⑤⑥⑦⑨①自宅②車③会社④車中(○○町○○中学校校庭)⑤知人宅(△△市△△町字△△)㊍⑥避難所(□□町□□中学校)○コ⑦避難宿泊所(▽▽町▽▽温泉▽▽荘)○コ⑧電車⑨知人宅(○○県○○市○○)㊍Kawamata, Yamakiya district Namie, Iitate Approximately 29,000 peopleQuestionnaireExternal radiation dose rateReport of the estimatePrefectural resident surveyPreceding surveyEstimate of external radiation dose rate based on the activity record, dietary status, etc.Table 1.

According to epidemiological studies, no obvious health hazards have been reported for those exposed to radiation less than 100 mSv. This estimate is the cumulative radiation dose rate for a period of four months. Therefore, we conclude that “this level of radiation is unlikely to cause health hazards” (announced by the review committee on February 20, 2012).We will continue of conducting surveys for radiation dose rates and report the results to the respondents.
