The radius of the danger zone around the Fukushima nuclear plant that must be evacuated has now been extended to 100 kilometers.
If a similar 100-kilometer danger zone were declared around the Bataan Nuclear Power Plant (BNPP), the following maps show which areas will be affected:
Japanese authorities declared a 20-km evacuation zone around the Fukushima nuclear plant. But the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) issued on March 16, 2011, a warning to U.S. citizens living in Japan to evacuate to safer areas if they were living within 50 miles (80.5 km) of the radioactive plant.
