I dont know, guess so, he even mentioned the Fukushima plant in his report!
Anyway a few things have been happening. The work at unit 1 seemed to go ok because they have now moved onto the next phase, opening a door so that workers can go in on Monday:

They also released a video of workers in the turbine building (I think) after installing new ventilation equipment the other day. This equipment seems to have brought air contamination down to a level where the above plan can go ahead.

Also note that they have another new video at the above link, a 2nd, much longer and more vivid video of the unit 4 spent fuel pool. It seems rather intact and does not have the sort of damage to the fuel & fuel racks that many people were expecting, which is good news indeed, but has left people even more curious about the explosion at unit 4.
