Deadly areas of radiation found at Fukushima nuclear plant, WJLA ABC 7 by John Metcalfe, August 2, 2011:
Remember the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant? That place is still so contaminated that scientists are uncovering new and amazing things every day in unexplored locations. [...]
The deadly Easter eggs, located near a ventilation stack, are generating radiation on the magnitude of 10 sieverts per hour. Actually, the levels are higher than that, but the dosimeters the Japanese are using stop at 10. [...]
The Japanese nuclear team observed these fizzing pockets from afar with a gamma camera [...]
Highest radiation to date at Fukushima plant another hurdle for TEPCO, Asahi, August 3, 2011:
[...] The fact that such high levels of radiation [at least 10 sieverts per hour] were detected near piping connected to the outer atmosphere is further evidence that radioactive materials have spewed from the crippled reactors at much higher levels than previously believed. [...]
Because that level of radiation was detected on the outside of the piping, the level inside the piping could be even higher. [...]
TEPCO officials had assumed that high levels of radiation would mainly be detected within the reactor buildings containing the cores where the meltdowns occurred. [...]

Not sure of it's accuracy. Looks reasonable.
