As every other nuclear power plant located at the coast does and nobody cares. AFAIK the water from Fukushima is “cleaner” than from other sites.

What's more, it's cleaner than when Fukushima was operational!

The total annual amount of tritium to be discharged will be at a level below the operational target value for tritium discharge of the Fukushima Daiichi NPS before the accident

Nobody cares? There's a worldwide anti-nuclear movement, and release of radioactive materials into the environment is their foremost complaint.

That worldwide anti nuclear movement is funded to some degree by the fossil fuel lobby so take what they say with a grain of salt.
