At 2:48PM on March 11th, turbines and reactors of Tokyo Electric Power
Company's Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station Unit 1 (Boiling Water
Reactor, rated output 460 Megawatts) and Units 2 and 3 (Boiling Water
Reactor, Rated Output 784 Megawatts) that had been operating at rated 
power automatically shutdown due to the Tohoku-Chihou-Taiheiyou-Oki 
Earthquake. (already announced)

After the shutdown, today at 3:42PM, it was determined that a specific
incident stipulated in article 10, clause 1 has occurred as all the AC
power was lost in Unit 1, 2 and 3. Afterwards, today at 4:36PM, it was
determined that a specific incident stipulated in article 15, clause 1
has occurred as we were unable to confirm the level of water injection
to the reactor by the Emergency Core Cooling System.(already announced)

In Unit 1, steam in reactor has been cooled by isolation condenser. In
Unit 2 and 3, we continue injecting water by Reactor Core Isolation
Cooling System. 

In Unit 4,5 and 6, sufficient level of reactor coolant to ensure safety
is maintained. 

TEPCO employees have confirmed that there is no on-going fire inside
the site of Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station.
We have also confirmed that the value of radioactive materials inside
the site measured by the monitoring car has remained in the ordinary
level. We have been continuing the measurement.
