At around 9:30 am on April 2nd, 2011, we detected water containing
radiation dose over 1,000 mSv/h in the pit* where power supply cables are
stored near the intake channel of Unit 2. Furthermore, there was a crack
of about 20 cm length on the concrete lateral of the pit, from where the
water in the pit was outflowing to the ocean. At around 12:20 pm on April
2nd, we reaffirmed the event at the scene.
We have implemented sampling of the water in the pit of Unit 2, together
with the seawater in front of the bar screen near the pit of Unit 2. These
samples were sent to Fukushima Daini Nuclear Power Station for analyses.
 
At around 5:38 am on April 6th, we have observed stoppage of spilling of
water to the ocean from the crack on the concrete lateral of the pit. 
 
Since April 5th we have been conducting sampling surveys of the water in
the pit of Unit 2 and the seawater in front of the bar screen near the pit.
Regarding the survey results of the detection of three nuclides (iodine
131, cesium 134, cesium 137), we report those as definite results. As
for other nuclides, we will revaluate in accordance with the preventive
measures formulated after receiving a warning from Nuclear and Industrial
Safety Agency (NISA) on April 1st.
 
On April 12th, due to the installation of silt fences, we changed the
sampling points from the front of the bar screen of Unit 4 to the north
and the south of the inside of the water intake canal of Units 1 to 4.
Since April 17th, we have been conducting an additional sampling survey
outside the silt fence in front of the bar screen of Unit 2, in order to
assess the effect of the installation of the silt fence.
 
On May 11th, 2011, responding to out-flow leakage of contaminated water
from the intake canal of Unit 3, from May 12th, we additionally conducted
the sampling of the seawater inside and outside of the silt fence in front
of the bar screen near the pit of Unit 1, 3 and 4.  
 (Previously announced)
 
On May 14th, 2011, we conducted the sampling of the seawater near the
intake canal of Unit 1 to 4 of Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station and
analyzed them. As a result, some radioactive materials were detected as
described in the exhibit. Accordingly, we have reported the result of the
analysis to NISA and the government of Fukushima Prefecture.
 
We will continue to conduct the same kind of sampling.
