Currently, a large quantity of radioactive wastewater exists inside the
turbine building of Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station. Particularly,
wastewater in Unit 2 is highly radioactive.
We have been planning to transfer such wastewater to the Centralized
Radiation Waste Treatment Facility once measures to prevent leakage are
implemented inside the facility buildings. After transfer to the
Centralized Radiation Waste Treatment Facility, the wastewater will be
stably stored.
                                (Previously announced on April 15th, 2011)

With this regard, on April 10th, we received direction from Minister of
Economy, Trade and Industry to report on matters in connection with
transfer of high level radioactive wastewater to the Centralized Radiation
Waste Treatment Facility, such as necessity, assessment of safety, plans
on permanent safety storage of wastewater and treatment facilities.
Since we completed implementing measures to prevent leakage in the
facility buildings, we have compiled the details based on the direction
given and reported to Minister of Economy, Trade and Industry. The content
of the report has been confirmed by Nuclear and Industrial Safety Agency.

Based on the method described in the report, we will start transferring
high level radioactive wastewater to the Centralized Radiation Waste
Treatment Facility once we complete preparation.
