Water from the fuel pools at the top floors of the No. 7 and No. 2 reactors at the Kashiwazaki-Kariwa nuclear power plant in Niigata Prefecture spilled over due to strong earthquakes, Tokyo Electric Power Company Holdings, Inc. announced Monday. No damage or leakage out of the buildings was confirmed.

    10l and 4l from two distinct pools seem like a rather small amount to spill.

      And water that is shielding mildly radioactive material and is not radioactive it’s self no less. You could swim in that water safely.
