20 million tons.

Last October, a Russian fishing trawler on it's way home from Hawaii to Vladivostok spotted multiple objects clearly from the Japanese disaster, like a fishing boat, a tv, and a refrigerator.  These items were about 300 miles closer to the American west coast than scientists had predicted.

Looks like a bonanza for beachcombers.
