The waste water has been treated enough that it is considered safe as the content of radioactive material is very low. However a lot of the opposition comes from fishermen who rightfully believe this will impact their livelihoods because your average lay person isn’t adequately informed by proper scientific sources. Already there’s been a media frenzy about “radioactive fish” and it probably won’t go away.
