According to the report we submitted to NISA on June 8th, we received the
water including highly concentrated radioactive materials and started

by multiplexing the cesium adsorption Instrument and the decontamination
instrument in operation, we will install the 2nd cesium adsorption
Instrument. As we completed the report about this matter and submitted it
to NISA today on August 8th, we would like to announce accordingly.
