US West Coast being continuously exposed to Fukushima radioactive releases, it's an ongoing tragedy.

Radiation levels spiked 1,000% since floods. Up to 100% of No. 2 reactor fuel may have melted. A group of researchers says it is highly likely that
70 to 100 percent of fuel has melted at one of the damaged reactors at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant. The group includes researchers from Nagoya University. It has been probing the plant's
No. 2 reactor since April of last year, using a device that uses elementary particles called muons to see into its interior.
The researchers say the
results of their study show few signs of nuclear fuel at the reactor core, in contrast to the No. 5 reactor where fuel was clearly visible at its core. This led them to believe that 70 to 100 percent of fuel at the reactor has likely melted. The researchers say further analyses are needed to determine whether molten fuel penetrated the reactor and fell down.
The No. 2 reactor is said to have released large amounts of radioactive substances following the March 2011 accident. Tokyo Electric Power Company, the plant's operator, has estimated that part of nuclear fuel at the reactor remains at its core.
The locations of nuclear fuel will have a significant impact on the process to remove it from the damaged reactors, the most difficult step of the decommissioning work.

Comment: A person who is charged with the well-being of children only seeks to protect his and the school's image at their expense. Anyone with a shred of conscience would have reported the predatory teacher immediately, rather than covering up the situation.
