Greenpeace also strongly advised to evacuate. Within days, people could then the maximum radiation dose for one year to be exposed. The Japanese government declared that there was no cause for evacuation. The village is outside the Iitate established by the Japanese government's evacuation zone of 20 kilometers around the damaged nuclear power plant and outside the zone with curfew.

It fell to Wednesday at 6 micro Sievert per hour, thus the inhabitants had still achieved at 24 hours in the open air in a week already the annual limit of 1000 micro Sievert.
