[Andie]

What makes this noteworthy are the fact that it occurred on the fault 200 miles from the Fukushima accident, and so close to 2 large quakes on the opposite side of the Ring of Fire. Seems the plates have awakened so this Fall. The Fukishima area is still no man's land and cleanup has many setbacks and subject to heated debates.
