Radioactive Eureka?

Not quite, but Eureka is mentioned in this Washington Post story on recently detected radiation from the Fukushima reactor leaks. Low radiation levels were found off the coast:

"...the presence of small quantities of Fukushima radiation in a sample taken in August 2014 100 miles off the coast of Eureka, Calif. The radiation was at low levels, similar to that reported in the current research."
