We will have our contribution of nukefish to the world supply when the leaking containers at Hanford, WA. seep into their river(s).

Underground Nuclear Tanks Leaking in Washington State
By KIRK JOHNSON
Published: February 22, 2013

SEATTLE — Six underground tanks holding radioactive waste are leaking at the Hanford Nuclear Reservation in eastern Washington, Gov. Jay Inslee said on Friday after a meeting with federal officials overseeing the cleanup of the nation’s most polluted nuclear site.

One tank was already known to have a leak, but the new revelation caught state officials by surprise, said David Postman, a spokesman for the governor. He said that federal managers had assured the governor that the leaks posed no health risks or threats to the water supply, including the Columbia River, which passes nearby.

Oh yeah, I forgot, the waste won't get into the water supply because he said so. Just like in Japan.

Damn. That's bad, Carl. Six underground tanks instead of the one they knew about right next to the Columbia River and leaking.
