Not exactly sure, but Wikipedia says 2 of the reactors are not yet built? Not sure. Looks like if there is a meltdown both plants would not be habitable, so at least 6 reactors lost! How much does that cost?

According to http://www.iaea.org/newscenter/news/tsunamiupdate01.html, "all units at the Fukushima Daini, Onagawa, and Tokai nuclear power plants are in a safe and stable condition (i.e. cold shutdown)".

Dai-ichi is Fukushima I: 'ichi' is Japanese for 'one'.

Dai-ni is Fukushima II: 'ni' is Japanese for 'two'.
