On April 13, 2011, we received a written instruction (*) "Collection of
report pursuant to the Provisions of Article 67, paragraph 1 of the Act on
Regulation of Nuclear Source Materials, Nuclear Fuel Materials and
Reactors" from Nuclear and Industrial Safety Agency, Ministry of Economy,
Trade and Industry. We implemented study regarding current earthquake-
proof safety and reinforcement of reactor building for Unit1 and 4 at
Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station, and summarized the results. On
May 28, 2011, we reported the result to the Agency.
(Already announced on April 13, 2011 and on May 28, 2011)
Thereafter, based on the instruction, we implemented study regarding
current earthquake-proof safety and reinforcement of reactor building for
Unit3 at Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station, and summarized the
results. Hence we announce that we reported to the Agency today.

Regarding Collection of a Report Pursuant to the Provisions of Article 67,
paragraph 1 of the Act on Regulation of Nuclear Source Materials, Nuclear
Fuel Materials and Reactors
04.12.2011 N No.2
April 13th, 2011
The ministry orders your company to submit a report on the items listed
below, pursuant to the provisions of Article 67, paragraph 1 of the Act on
Regulation of Nuclear Source Materials, Nuclear Fuel Materials and
Reactors (Act No. 166 of 1957).
If there are grievances regarding this action, pursuant to the provisions
of Article 6 of the Administrative Appeal Act (Act No. 160 of 1962), an
administrative appeal may be made, in writing, to the Minister of Economy,
Trade and Industry within 60 days from the date one day after the day on
which your company became aware of the fact that this disposition was made.
However, no administrative appeals may be made when a period of one year
has elapsed from the date one day after the date of this disposition, even
if it is within 60 days from the date one day after the day on which your
company became aware of the fact that this disposition was made.
Required Items
·Results of seismic safety assessments, using the seismic ground
motion of a possible future earthquake, implemented on the reactor
buildings that are indirectly supporting structures of the primary
containment vessels, the reactor pressure vessels and the spent fuel
storage pools, which are the system, structure and components important
to seismic safety at Fukushima Dai-ichi Nuclear Power Station.
·Results of an examination of measures such as engineering works
for seismic reinforcement on sections that seismic safety may not be able
to be secured for under the current state of the reactor building.
