As zonas de evacuação em redor da central nuclear de Fukushima Daiichi
Estimates of Possible Exposure Define U.S. Evacuation Zone
The American Embassy recommended on March 17 that Americans within 50 miles of the Fukushima reactors evacuate. The recommendation was based on an analysis by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission that predicts possible radiation levels assuming conditions at the plant degrade. It is not based on current radiological conditions. It includes factors like whether containment vessels remain intact and weather patterns, among others. Here are the results of the analysis on March 16.
Japanese and American Evacuation Zones
About 2 million people live within 50 miles of the plant. This is a much larger than the area established by the Japanese, who have advised everyone within 19 miles to evacuate.
