TEPCO continues to say they still don't know whether the two are related.
The water sample from the same observation hole, No.1-1, was found with 3,000 Bq/liter of all-beta (including strontium) on June 29, 2013. The successive measurements showed higher all-beta from the same hole.
Here's the latest number of all-beta and tritium for the hole No.1-1, and the hole No.1-2, which they dug after detecting high all-beta in No.1-1.
The sample from the hole No.1-1 has high tritium (600,000 Bq/liter), but take a look at the sample from the hole No.1-2. It has extremely high amount of all-beta, at 900,000 Bq/liter. The sample also have higher amounts of cesium and other gamma nuclides compared to the sample from the hole No.1-1.

#Fukushima I Nuke Plant: Highest Amount of Tritium from an Observation Hole near the Seawall at 600,000 Bq/L, from Seawater Sample Near Water Intake at 2,300 Bq/L

From TEPCO's handout for the press, 7/7/2013:
Just yesterday (July 6. 2013), Jiji Tsushin reported that the seawater sample collected on July 3 at the water intake for the Reactors 1-4 at Fukushima I Nuclear Power Plant was found with the highest amount of tritium since the accident, at 2,300 Bq/liter.
However, according to TEPCO, it still can't be determined whether the contaminated groundwater with high tritium content is leaking into the harbor.

Former Fukushima worker, “Chemical injection doesn’t solve groundwater contamination problem”

Having measured extremely high level of Tritium from groundwater, Tepco is making additional borings for more detailed analysis.
(cf, 600,000,000 Bq/m3 of Tritium from groundwater, Tepco doesn’t analyze the groundwater for Strontium-90 [URL])
On 7/1/2013, Fukushima Diary reported “Tepco to build over 200 underground structures of water glass to 13 m deep underground to stop Tritium spreading [URL 2]”
About the countermeasure of Tepco, the former Fukushima worker Happy11311 commented on Twitter that it is not the fundamental resolution.

It’s natural that the higher level of radiation is detected near the sea. It’s meaningless to keep on sampling. I also think it’s not the fundamental resolution to inject chemical material into the ground. ・・・

Fukushima Daiichi Worker: Situation at plant “most likely to get worse” — “Japan likely to face a critical situation again” if Tepco remains in control
