40% of residents’ exposure tops annual limit
[...] Fukushima Prefecture released on Monday the results of its survey of external radioactive exposure among some 9,750 residents of 2 towns and a village after the accident last March. This number excluded people working in places with high radioactivity, such as a nuclear plant.
Participants were asked about their behavior over a 4-month period immediately following the nuclear accident in order to estimate their external exposure.
Forty-two percent of the respondents are estimated to have received more than one millisievert — the annual limit for the general public — in the 4 months following the disaster. [...]

while we are off topic, how about this one…..Experts believe they may have found the most radioactive particle to be recovered so far from a beach near the Dounreay nuclear plant in Caithness. The Scottish Environment Protection Agency (Sepa) has been informed of the discovery at Sandside. Initial tests suggest it contained between one a two million becquerels (Bq) of radiation – at least twice as "hot" as a particle found in 2007.

@mungo..Yep.. I saw this…two million Bq..one "particle"..then I thought about Fukushima..then I started to feel unhappy..then I remembered that unhappiness makes one sick.
So now… I'm so so happy..(sarc)

Hi mungo
WOW….it says it's an "Enviroment Pollution" which means – "Nuclear Problem"..What a way to say duck and cover.
Them saying Enviroment Pollution is miss leading..Doesn't sound as serious as a Nuclear Problem

From the article;
“The drywell is up to 6-feet thick in places, and is part of the plant’s primary containment system,” she added.
" up to 6 feet thick"? That's nice. But I'm WAY more interested in how THIN it is in places!

A Lament
with a nod to Poet Laureate Or-well…
Fukushima-ed & Left for Dead
Surrounded by the walking dead
(It is their customary state)
I'm used to them by now.
They mean well.
They add a sort of sci-fi feeling
To the place. (They're what are called
'naturals.') The human
Furniture.
So we're talking about the place
I call home.
I teeter on the edge of panic
Like a cartoon character,
Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck,
the Road Runner.
One of the straight men
To whom things happen.
Good for a laugh.
I'm afraid.
One of the saps.
The joke's on me.
I've been Fukushima-ed.
My world is gone, a new one
Has shoved it aside.
Has taken its place.
My beautiful world
Is poisoned.

Morning bleep. Bear with me on this one before you react.
What a shock
over coffee
to see that
about me.
I wish I had something
to fill you with glee.
But I don't.
That's your job,
to manage the waves
that crash on your shores
then recede in Time lost
to trouble no more
except in the memory
and future imagining.
They say
"BE HERE NOW"
is the most difficult managing.
I do agree -
"Now" colors the past
and creates the future,
"Now" in thought and emotion
may create a rupture,
"Now" in devotion
or contemplation
may bind like a suture,
"Now" in action
with intent
may just
save the future.
bleep, I have personally had my world rocked, shocked, mocked, and my hopes balked, blocked and stalked by fear rich until "life's a bitch" almost came out on top. If Deities exist I may never know but of a few things I'm sure – there's connection pure between humans and humans behind the "door" and action is more than just sweeping the floor, so here I will risk an impression cold, and say the defeatism here recently seen is but reflection of projection mean from the minds of the sick infecting us all and of centuries of programming that hold us in thrall.
A solution I offer? No, and the futures unknown, and I'm just as sorry and with my mind blown, and sadder than deep could be defined, that humanitys' journey may end before Time, and I struggle to find the way out of soul-strife, but I say to you and all that may hear, we have choice in action even if it's unclear what is Right Direction and if there's a God or a Universe listening then may That in action see all of us glistening and using our choice to end the infections of voices dark, may our actions be some kind of holy spark, may we know we are linked, inextricably bound, on this precious planet that Life has found, may words with intent help bind the wounds of all who've been savaged by Darkness' hounds, may any action given in Love prove the truth of our Being,…

This one a little old, but havent noticed it publicized
This is from Power Engineering Magazine to which I subscribe

Nuclear power plant cited for regulatory violations
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission on Feb. 14 issued three violations to the Palisades nuclear power plant. One violation is for a “substantial safety significance” issue and two others are for a “low to moderate safety significance” issue. These violations will result in additional NRC inspections and oversight of the facility. The single-unit, 798 MW plant in Covert, Mich. is operated by Entergy Nuclear Operations (NYSE: ETR).
The violation resulting in a substantial significance to safety is related to a Sept. 25 electrical fault caused by personnel at the site which resulted in a reactor trip, the loss of half of the control room indicators, and actuation of safety systems that were not warranted by actual plant conditions. The NRC said this made the reactor trip more challenging for the operators and increased the possibility of a serious event occurring.
