I don't have any love for TEPCO, because due their incompetence I was forced to cancel my trip to western Japan in march 2011, and lost at least 1000 dollars in the process, but what are you saying is absolutely wrong. The fuel in Unit 4 of Fukushima I has been cooling since November 30th 2010, it had almost 4 months of proper cooling and handling before the disaster. That's why the fuel despite the lack of cooling and the fire in unit 4 caused by the destruction of the core of unit 3 didn't got damaged. After almost 3 years, the heat output of this fuel has dropped considerably, and unless all, all the countermeasures in place fail, including the fire engines placed in the NPS and nobody does anything about this fuel in a week or two, then it could become dangerous. Also, most of the fuel in the pool of unit 4 is not irradiated, so it will not be a pressing source of concern. For the rest of the damaged units, the fuel has been cooling for even more time than the fuel of unit 4. The real, pressing issue, since march 2011 is all the radioactive contamination coming out of the damaged cores of units 1, 2 and 3.
The spent fuel pools are already more or less secured, and the cooling since august 2011 has been properly done, with heat exchangers put in place and redundant systems. The Unit 1 is already fully covered by a new structure, Unit 2 is closed, in unit 3 there is work underway to remove all the rubble and cover the building, and in Unit 4 they are building the structure to remove the fuel from the spent fuel pool an the pool itself has been reinforced, so the possibility of Tokyo or any city or village in Japan becoming uninhabitable by the spent fuel pools of Fukushima I is very close to 0.
