The nuclear test on Sunday conducted by the Democratic People's Republic of Korea has not harmed the environment or public health in China, the Ministry of Environmental Protection said on Wednesday. The ministry will continue to monitor for radiation in China-DPRK border areas; intensify sampling and analysis of air, water and soil; and post public monitoring data on its website on a regular basis, the ministry said.
