Answer:
There is no exact answer, some scientist argues that the oceans can absorb and disperse radiation so that it is harmless and some scientists say radioactivity from dumps can make its way into the marine food chain. And Jacob Darwin Hamblin wrote in Poison in the Well, a history of dumping during the Cold War said, "It was no stretch (for officials) to assume that, like fish stocks, the ocean would rejuvenate itself through dilution, and that it had a definable annual capacity to do so for radioactive waste,"
