"Inside Japan's Nuclear Meltdown" is a frontline documentary that outlines the events that transpired right before and right after the earthquake and tsunami and all events that occurred following.

josh.correiraI'm not sure what this question is asking. The situation was clearly worsened by the EPA allowing people to move back into their homes following the collapses and no reference to damage control was made in this article.
