@ifz number 1 of 7 so far

Thanks es, I was just about to do the same remark. See how easy it is to spread false rumours? Always check the dates, please.

@ifz between the 12th and 15th last month that same area was active.

Restoration work at Fukushima plant suffers setback in Monday quake english.kyodonews.jp

TEPCO president apologizes, one month later Shimizu apologized to people in and outside Fukushima Prefecture, saying his company has added to their physical and mental burdens with the nuclear crisis.

He also said he regrets not meeting local residents first of all to offer an apology. He said he failed to do so because he was overwhelmed by handing the accident from Tokyo.
He also said he was sorry that Fukushima Governor Yuhei Sato had refused his request to meet and receive an apology directly. www3.nhk.or.jp

@markfm, the link with images is places they re-tested the radiation levels after removing debris. Will try to cut and paste the translation

Wow some actual news. They are putting nitrogen in 3, first I have heard of them actually doing so and a few other details english.kyodonews.jp

@Nancy - I didn't see anything about nitrogen in #3 in the article you linked.

When asked what is most troubling to them now, 55 percent of respondents said they are frustrated with the lack of accurate information about the nuclear plant, and their future housing prospects. This was followed by 36 percent who said they have to stay at shelters without privacy and 11 percent who said they cannot move easily without their own cars or gasoline. www3.nhk.or.jp

Shameless plug: I finished translating (more or less) part 2 of the Fukushima documentary: www.youtube.com

@Bobby1 Here's the remaining part of that quote from the article you posted that I found particularly disturbing: "Data for the west coast of the United States, which received the Fukushima radioactive fallout 6-10 days before France, reveals that levels of radioactive iodine-131 concentration are 8-10 times higher there, the institute says."

@James Ward - They're still below the safety standards intentionally set low for long term considerations. This is, of course, subject to change along with the condition of the reactors.

@fitter Where?
