Due to the Tohoku-Taiheiyou-Oki Earthquake which occurred on March 11th 
2011, TEPCO's facilities including our nuclear power stations have been 
severely damaged. We deeply apologize for the anxiety and inconvenience 
caused. 

Below is the status of TEPCO's major facilities. 
*new items are underlined

[Nuclear Power Station] 
  Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station: 
  Units 1 to 3: shutdown due to the earthquake 
  (Units 4 to 6: outage due to regular inspections)  

* The national government has instructed the public to evacuate for those 
local residents within 20km radius of the site periphery and to evacuate 
voluntarily for those local residents between 20km and 30km radius of the 
site periphery.

* Off-site power has been connected to Unit 1 to 6 by March 22, 2011. 

* Unit 1
- The explosive sound and white smoke was confirmed near Unit 1 when the 
  big quake occurred at 3:36pm, March 12th.
- We started injection of sea water at 8:20 pm, March 12th, and then boric 
  acid which absorbs neutron into the reactor afterwards.
- At approximately 2:30 am, March 23rd, we started the injection of sea 
  water into the reactor from feed water system. After that, the injection 
  of freshwater was started from 3:37 pm on March 25th (switched from the 
  seawater injection). At 8:32 am, Mar 29th, transfer from the fire 
  fighting pump to a temporary motor driven pump was made.
- At approximately 10:50 am on March 24th, white smoke was confirmed 
  arising from the top of the reactor building.
- At approximately 11:30 am, March 24th, lights in the main control room 
  were restored.
- At approximately 5:00 pm, March 24th, draining water from underground 
  floor of turbine buildings into a condenser was started and it was 
  paused at approximately 7:30 am, March 29th because we confirmed that 
  the water level reached almost full capacity of a condenser. Water 
  transfer from condensate reservoirs to suppression pool water surge-tanks 
  is under review to enable water transfer from a condenser to condensate 
  reservoirs.

* Unit 2
- At 1:25 pm, March 14th, since the Reactor Core Isolation Cooling System 
  has failed, it was determined that a specific incident stipulated in 
  Clause 1, Article 15 of Act on Special Measures Concerning Nuclear 
  Emergency Preparedness occurred (failure of reactor cooling function).
  At 5:17 pm, March 14th, while the water level in the reactor reached the 
  top of the fuel rod, we have restarted the water injection with the valve 
  operation.
- At approximately 6:14 am, March 15th, the abnormal sound was confirmed 
  near the suppression chamber and the pressure inside the chamber 
  decreased afterwards. It was determined that there is a possibility that 
  something happened in the suppression chamber. While sea water injection 
  to the reactor continued, TEPCO employees and workers from other 
  companies not in charge of injection work started tentative evacuation 
  to a safe location. 
  Sea water injection to the reactor continued.
- On March 18th, power was delivered up to substation for backup power 
  through offsite transmission line. We completed laying cable further to 
  unit receiving facility in the building, and at 3:46 pm, March 20th the 
  load-side power panel of the receiving facility started to be energized.
- From 3:05 pm to 5:20 pm on March 20th, about 40 tons of seawater was 
  injected into Unit 2 by TEPCO employees.
- At approximately 6:20 pm on March 21st, white smoke was confirmed arising 
  from the top of the reactor building. As of 7:11 am on March 22nd, smoke 
  decreased to the level where we could hardly confirm.
- From around 4:00 pm to 5:00 pm on March 22nd, approximately 18 tons of 
  sea water was injected into the spent fuel pool by TEPCO employees. 
- From 10:10 am on March 26th, freshwater (with boric acid) injection was 
  initiated. (switched from the seawater injection) At 6:31pm, March 27th, 
  transfer from the fire fighting pump to a temporary motor driven pump 
  was made.
- From 10:30 am on March 25th, seawater injection through Fuel Pool Cooling 
  and Filtering System was initiated. The work was finished at 12:19 pm, 
  March 25th. From 4:30 pm, March 29th, freshwater injection through Fuel 
  Pool Cooling and Filtering System was initiated. (We switched from 
  seawater to freshwater). The work was finished at 6:25 pm on March 29th. 
  At 9:25 am, March 30th, we started fresh water injection by a temporary 
  motor driven pump, but we switched the pump to the fire fighting pump 
  due to the pump trouble. At 1:10 pm, March 30th, freshwater injection 
  was suspended, because we found the crack on a part of the hose. At 7:05 
  pm, March 30th, freshwater injection was resumed and finished at 11:50 
  pm, March 31. 
- At approximately 4:46 pm, March 26th, lights in the main control room 
  were restored.
- At approximately 4:45 pm, March 29th, the water in condensate reservoirs 
  was being transferred to suppression pool water surge-tanks to prepare 
  for water transfer from a condenser to condensate reservoirs in order to 
  drain water on the underground floor of the turbine building into a 
  condenser.

* Unit 3 
- At 6:50 am, March 14th, while water injection to the reactor was under  
  operation (injection of boric acid was done on Mar 13th), the pressure in  
  the reactor containment vessel increased to 530 kPa. As a result, at 7:44  
  am, it was determined that a specific incident stipulated in article 15,  
  clause 1 occurred (abnormal increase of the pressure of reactor  
  containment vessel). Afterwards, the pressure gradually decreased (as of  
  9:05 am, 490 kPa).  
- We continue injecting water into a reactor (Boric acid was added on March 13)
 * We announced in our past reports that "On March 14, the pressure in the 
   primary containment vessel increased and it was determined that a 
   specific incident stipulated in the Article 15, the Clause 1 of Act on 
   Special Measures Concerning Nuclear　Emergency Preparedness occurred". 
   However, we made a mistake in the calculation of the pressure value and 
   the status of Unit 3 did not fall under the above-mentioned specific 
   incidents. We will delete the related description from our latest report.
- At approximately 11:01 am, March 14th, an explosion followed by white 
  smoke occurred near Unit 3. 4 TEPCO employees and 3 workers from other 
  companies (all of them were conscious) sustained injuries and were taken 
  to the hospital by ambulances.
- As the temperature of water in the spent fuel pool rose, spraying water 
  by helicopters with the support of the Self Defense Force was considered. 
  However the operation on March 16th was cancelled.
- At 6:15 am, March 17th, the pressure of the Suppression Chamber 
  temporarily increased, but currently it is stable within a certain range. 
  On March 20th, we were preparing to implement measures to reduce the 
  pressure of the reactor containment vessel (partial discharge of air 
  containing radioactive material to outside) in order to fully secure 
  safety. However, at present, it is not a situation to immediately 
  implement measures and discharge air containing radioactive material 
  to outside. We will continue to monitor the status of the pressure of 
  the reactor containment vessel.
- In order to cool spent fuel pool, water was sprayed by helicopters on 
  March 17th with the cooperation of Self-Defense Forces.

    separate building in a plant site in order to preserve spent fuel 
    which are transferred from the spent fuel pool in each Unit building.

* On March 17th, we patrolled buildings for dry casks and found no signs 
  of abnormal situation for the casks by visual observation. A detailed 
  inspection is under preparation.
  * dry cask: a measure to store spent fuel in a dry storage casks in 
    storages. Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station started to utilize 
    the measure from August 1995.

* In total 13 fire engines are lent for spraying water to the spent fuel 
pools and water injection to the nuclear reactors by various regional fire 
departments* as well as Tokyo Fire Department. Also, instruction regarding 
the setting and operation of large scale decontamination system was 
provided.

* On March 21st, 23rd to 29th, we detected technetium, cobalt, iodine, 
cesium, tellurium, barium, lanthanum and molybdenum from the seawater 
around discharge canal of Unit 1, 2, 3 and 4.

* On March 20th, 21st, 23rd to 29th, we detected iodine, cesium, tellurium 
and ruthenium in the air collected at the site of Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear 
Power Station.

* Plutonium has detected from the sample of soil at the site of Fukushima 
Daiichi Nuclear Power Station collected on 21st and 22nd of March, 
Concentration level of Plutonium detected was same as that of under usual 
environment and it is thought not to be harmful to human health. We will 
strengthen environmental monitoring of power station and surrounding 
environment.

* On March 28th, we detected radioactive materials contained in the puddles 
found in the turbine building of Unit 1 to 4.

* At approximately 3:30 pm, March 27th, we found water pooling in the 
vertical shaft of the trench outside of the turbine buildings for Units 1 
to 3. The radiation dose at the surface of the water amounted 0.4 mSv/h in 
Unit 1 and over 1,000 mSv/h in Unit 2. We could not confirm the amount of 
the radiation dose in Unit 3. We will keep observing the condition of the 
water in the vertical shaft.
On March 29th, we detected niobium, tellurium, ruthenium, silver, 
tellurium, iodine, cesium, and ruthenium in the water collected at the 
trench of unit 1.

* We found a puddle of water at the main building of the centralized 
environmental facility process. We analyzed and detected approximately 1.2 
x 101Bq/cm3 of radioactivity in full dose in the Controlled Area and 2.2 x 
101Bq/cm3 in full dose in the Non-Controlled Area on March 29.

* At 12:03 pm, March 29th, when taking off the flange of the pipe of the 
seawater piping of the Residual Heat Removal System, 3 workers from our 
subcontractor were soaked with water in the pipe. After wiping the water 
off, we confirmed that there was no radioactive contamination to their 
bodies.

* We will continuously endeavor to securing safety, and monitoring of the 
surrounding environment.

Fukushima Daini Nuclear Power Station: 
  Units 1 to 4: shutdown due to the earthquake 
* The national government has instructed evacuation for those local 
residents within 10km radius of the periphery.

* In order to achieve cold shutdown, reactor cooling function was restored 
and cooling of reactors was conducted. As a result, all reactors achieved 
cold shutdown: Unit 1 at 5:00 pm, March 14th, Unit 2 at 6:00 pm, March 
14th, Unit 3 at 0:15 pm, March 12th, Unit 4 at 7:15 am, March 16th. 

* At 2:30 pm on March 30th, the power source of the residual heat removal 
system(B) to cool the reactor of Unit 1 was secured from an emergency power 
source in addition to an offsite power. This means that all the units 
secure backup power sources (emergency power sources) for the residual 
heat removal systems(B).

* (Unit 1)
As it is confirmed that the temperature of the Emergency Equipment Cooling 
Water System *1 has increased, at 3:20 pm, March 15th, we stopped the 
Residual Heat Removal System (B) for the inspection. Subsequently, failure 
was detected in the power supply facility associated with the pumps of the 
Emergency Equipment Cooling Water System. At 4:25 pm, March 15th, after 
replacing the power facility, the pumps and the Residual Heat Removal 
System (B) have been reactivated.

* (Unit 4)
As it is confirmed that the pressure at the outlet of the pumps of the 
Emergency Equipment Cooling Water System*1 has been decreased, at 8:05 pm, 
March 15th, we stopped the Residual Heat Removal System (B) for the 
inspection. Subsequently, failure was detected in the power supply facility 
associated with the pumps of the Emergency Equipment Cooling Water System. 
At 9:25 pm, March 15th, after replacing the relevant facility, the pumps 
and the Residual Heat Removal System (B) have been reactivated.

*1:emergency water system in which cooling water (pure water) circulates 
which exchanged the heat with sea water in order to cool down bearing
