Nuclear fallout comes from nuclear detonations. Power plants don't have the capacity to make nuclear detonations.

I think this is kinda like people who are afraid of flying because of plane crashes. But realistically you are far more likely to die in a car crash in the way to the airport than in a plane crash after you get there.
