Smoke may be coming from the #3 reactor’s spent fuel pool. TEPCO unable to confirm temperatures inside the no. 3 reactors spent fuel pool which is home to some 514 spent fuel rods. ---

Where all the contaminated coolant/water and used rods goes? ---

The spent fuel pool is where they put the fuel rods that are all used up. They are still really hot so they sit in this HUGE pool of water, with the water usually 10meters over the top of the rods. Here is a 2010 pic of that exact fuel pool actually: ![http://www.csmonitor.com/var/ezflow_site/storage/images/media/images/0315-fuku-pool/9827390-1-eng-US/0315-fuku-pool_full_380.jpg](http://www.csmonitor.com/var/ezflow_site/storage/images/media/images/0315-fuku-pool/9827390-1-eng-US/0315-fuku-pool_full_380.jpg) check the article: > **[Meltdown 101: What are spent-fuel pools and why are they a threat?](https://www.csmonitor.com/USA/2011/0315/Meltdown-101-What-are-spent-fuel-pools-and-why-are-they-a-threat)** > > Spent-fuel pools are shielded only by the buildings at Japan's Fukushimi I nuclear power plant, and three have now been damaged by explosions. Low-level radiation leaking from the pools could dramatically worsen if the water levels drop low enough... ---

On CNN they were looping video while talking about it of the CV and some of the water jets and a pool with a grid looking structure in it, been trying to find that video or an actual video or pictures of a reacotr like it with an explination… A Diagram is one thing but id like to see actual pictures and explinations ---

As far as I understand, the problem is there is no containment vessel housing those spent fuel rods… ---

So the leaking they were talking abotu yesterday about how they were pumping more water in but the water level was not rising was that in the CV or the spent fuel pool? They made it sound like the CV, but the more wayne here is talking about issues in the spent fuel pool i wonder if thats the case? ---

Containment vessels of No1 & No 3 reactor possibly breached. Water injection into #4 spent fuel pool has not yet begun. ---
