On March 21st 2011, radioactive materials were detected from the seawater 
around the discharge canal (south) of Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power 
Station which was damaged by the 2011 Tohoku-Taiheiyou-Oki Earthquake. 
This is the result of the sampling survey of radioactive materials in the 
seawater which was implemented as a part of monitoring activity of 
surrounding environment. We had informed the result to Nuclear and 
Industrial Safety Agency (NISA) and Fukushima prefecture.
(previously announced)

On March 25th 2011, we had conducted re-sampling survey to examine the 
effect of radioactive materials in the seawater. Today, we had informed 
the result to Nuclear and Industrial Safety Agency (NISA) and the 
government of Fukushima Prefecture, because radioactive materials were 
detected as shown in the attachment.

We will continue to conduct same kind of sampling survey.
