Could be a problem. Same place. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/09/19/fukushima-earthquake-2013_n_3956233.html Apparently there is something bad near there - and there will definitley be after shocks. For the moment we haven't seen a sizable Tsunami - there are some small ones. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2016/11/21/japan-earthquake-73-magnitude-earthquake-strikes-fukushima/ update a few minutes ago:
The cooling system of the third reactor at the Fukushima nuclear
power plant has stopped circulating water following a powerful 7.3
offshore earthquake. TEPCO said it managed to restart the system some 90
minutes after the failure.
LIVE UPDATES: 7.3 Fukushima quake & tsunami According to the Nuclear Regulatory Agency the cooling system servicing the Unit 3 spent fuel pool is not able to circulate water to cool the nuclear fuel because of a broken pump. Medclinician |

I wonder what this may do to the crippled reactor? That thing must be very fragile & still dangerous.

Well maybe in the future for California - but for Japan it is happening - Tsunami may hit any time.
