"In summary, the Chernobyl and Fukushima accidents had different causes and consequences. The Chernobyl accident was mainly due to operation mistake while Fukushima accident resulted from and earthquake. The Chernobyl accident had more severe consequences than Fukushima because more radionuclides was released during the accident and larger area was contaminated. Also the dose exposure of the workers was significantly higher in Chernobyl accident."

Of course California like Japan, is earthquake territory.

California is the most populated state in the USA. A Fukushima or Chernobyl like disaster would be devastating. Thus, it is hoped that the Diablo_Canyon_Power_Plant can be closed by 2025.

"In June 2016, PG&E announced that it plans to close the two Diablo Canyon reactors in 2024 and 2025. Full decommissioning of the plant is estimated to take decades and cost nearly 4 billion dollars." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diablo_Canyon_Power_Plant
