Nuclear Free

Fukushima was the first nuclear plant to be designed, constructed and run in conjunction with General Electric, Boise, and Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO).[3]

The reactors for Units 1, 2, and 6 were supplied by General Electric, those for Units 3 and 5 by Toshiba, and Unit 4 by Hitachi. All six reactors were designed by General Electric.[5][6] Architectural design for General Electric's units was done by Ebasco. All construction was done by Kajima.[7] Since September 2010, Unit 3 has been fueled by a small fraction (6%)[8] of plutonium containing mixed-oxide (MOX) fuel, rather than the low enriched uranium (LEU) used in the other reactors.[9][10] Units 1–5 were built with Mark I type (light bulb torus) containment structures.[11][12] The Mark I containment structure was slightly increased in volume by Japanese engineers.[13] Unit 6 has a Mark II type (over/under) containment structure.[11][12][14]

Besides, this article in the OP is not about the effects of the plant breakdown in Japan, but on its effects here where I am, on the US West Coast.

So we are very much and very directly involved. The cancer treatments and deaths will take place here on the US West Coast.

Nuclear energy is a curse. It is far too dangerous for us to be using. I would favor closing all nuclear plants if that were economically viable at all.
