Anecdotal, but someone might find it interesting:
I've been traveling around with a dosimeter on my wrist (Polimaster PM1208M) for fun since 2007 & I've traveled to Tokyo a few times since the '11 Tohoku earthquake. I've seen the radiation levels as high as .10 uSv/hr (same as a rainy day in Eastern Oregon) and as low as .03 uSV/hr (lower than I've ever seen it in San Francisco). The most radioactive spot I've been was Rome @ .5 uSv/hr (higher than the areas in the article) & everywhere pales in comparison to levels at airplane cruising altitude -- as high as 6 uSv/hr.
Anyhow, the radiation level supposedly seen at the Tokyo facility in the article is nothing compared to Ramsar, Iran and folks are fine there:
