Not what many say. Much more radioactive fuel in thsoe 6 reactors and they are all spewingour radiation as I post this.

Below is one perception:

Val Eisman:

That's not the opinion of the US Head of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission who says water has drained from pools where spent rods are being cooled and stored. You want to trust Tokyo Electric which has a history of lying in a 2007 incident in which they lied about the number of barrels of radiocative material that had fallen into the sea? Be my guest.

"U.S. nuclear energy agency chief Gregory Jaczko repeated to ABC News Wednesday evening that there is “no water” in spent fuel pool number 4 at Japan's Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant in the wake of last week’s disaster there.

“I’m talking to NRC staff that we have in Japan that are working with counterparts in the Japanese utility and other officials with the regulatory bodies. They continue to believe that there is a severe concern with the spent fuel pool number 4 because it does not have a sufficient cooling and water in the pool,” Jaczko told ABC News in an interview following his appearance earlier in the day at a Congressional hearing.

“My understanding is that there is no water ...in the spent pool,” he said.

After Jaczko’s initial comments at the hearing, Japanese officials denied his claims. Asked if he was confident of the information that he was highlighting, Jaczko said he stood by his statement."
