That is good news. However, right now they are intentionally releasing radioactive water from # 5 and #6 because they fear losing control of those two reactors next. We do have two more reactors that have yet to explode. And #5 experienced significantly more ground motion then it was rated for. My guess was the leak at #2 was to cover the intentional release at #5 and #6. Paradoxically, It is also how these guys do business.

As I understand it, and I am nowhere near an expert, the release of the water is how they are avoiding meltdown. Also, ground motion was not what disturbed the reactors, but it was the overwhelming tsunami. Again, this is according to many reports.

The radioactive water is coming from the spent fuel pools. Those are outside the concrete containment building which houses the reactor.
