All 6 units of Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station have been shut down.

Unit 1 (Shut down) 
- Explosive sound and white smoke were confirmed after the big quake 
  occurred at 3:36 pm on March 12. It was assumed to be hydrogen explosion.
- At approximately 2:30 am on March 23, seawater injection to the nuclear 
  reactor through the feed water system was initiated.
- From 3:37 pm on March 25, we started injecting freshwater and are now 
  injecting fresh water by a motor driven pump powered by the off-site 
  transmission line.
- As it is suspected that hydrogen gas is accumulated inside reactor 
  containment vessel, we commenced the valve opening operation concerning 
  injection of nitrogen gas into the reactor container vessel at 10:30 pm 
  April 6th and commenced injection at 1:31am April 7.
- At 10:01 am on May 6th, in order to make nuclear reactor flooded to the 
  top of Fuel range, we have increased the amount of injecting freshwater 
  from approximately 6 m3/h to approximately 8m3/h.

Unit 2 (Shut down) 
- At approximately 6:00 am on March 15, an abnormal noise began emanating 
  from nearby Pressure Suppression Chamber and the pressure within the 
  chamber decreased. 
- From 10:10 am on March 26, we started injecting freshwater to the 
  reactor and are now injecting fresh water by a motor driven pump powered 
  by the off-site transmission line.

Unit 3 (Shut down) 
- Explosive sound and white smoke were confirmed at approximately 11:01am 
  on March 14. It was assumed to be hydrogen explosion.
- From 6:02 pm on March 25, we started injecting fresh water to the 
  reactor and are now injecting fresh water by a motor driven pump powered 
  by the off-site transmission line.

Unit 4 (Outage due to regular inspection) 
- At approximately 6:00 am on March 15, we confirmed the explosive sound 
  and the sustained damage around the 5th floor rooftop area of the 
  Nuclear Reactor Building.
- At this moment, we do not consider any reactor coolant leakage inside 
  the reactor happened.

Unit 5 (Outage due to regular inspection) 
- Sufficient level of reactor coolant to ensure safety is maintained.
- At 5:00 am on March 19, we started the Residual Heat Removal System Pump 
  (C) in order to cool the spent fuel pool.
- At 2:30 pm on March 20, the reactor achieved reactor cold shutdown. 
- At this moment, we do not consider any reactor coolant leakage inside 
  the reactor happened.

Unit 6 (Outage due to regular inspection) 
- Sufficient level of reactor coolant to ensure safety is maintained.
- At 10:14 pm on March 19, we started the Residual Heat Removal System 
  Pump (B) of Unit 6 in order to cool the spent fuel pool.
- At 7:27 pm on March 20, the reactor achieved reactor cold shutdown. 
- At this moment, we do not consider any reactor coolant leakage inside 
  the reactor happened.

Operation for cooling the spent fuel pools 
- We will continuously conduct further water spray depending on the 
  conditions of spent fuel pools, if needed.

Others 
- At 9:01am on May 10th, we temporarily suspended the transfer of high 
  level radioactive wastewater from the vertical shaft near the turbine 
  building of Unit 2 to the Centralized Radiation Waste Treatment 
  Facility, in order to lay out pipes from the turbine building of Unit 3.
- From 4:18 pm on May 8th to 5:41am on May 10th, we drained the water from 
  the condenser of the turbine building in Unit 3 as a preparation for the 
  water injection to the reactor through Feeding Water System.
- From May 2, we have started work relating to the set up of exhausters, 
  in order to improve the working environment inside the reactor building 
  of Unit 1. At 4:36 pm on May 5th, all of exhausters (6 units) were 
  started to operation. At 8:02 pm on May 8th, we stopped its operation, 
  removed a duct from double doors and opened a part of the doors. Then we 
  fully opened the double doors at 4:17 am on May 9th. We also opened the 
  door aside of the carry-in gate for large stuff of the reactor building.
  We measured the air dose rate and confirmed no radiation impact to the 
  outside.
- From 10:00am to 4:00pm on May 10th, we transferred the accumulated water 
  in the turbine building of Unit 6 to the temporary tank. At 10:00am on 
  May 11th, we resumed the transfer. 
- We will continue to take all measures to ensure the safety and to 
  continue monitoring the surrounding environment around the power station.
