Due to the Tohoku-Chihou-Taiheiyou-Oki Earthquake which occurred on March 
11, 2011, TEPCO's facilities including our nuclear power stations have been 
severely damaged. We deeply apologize for the anxiety and inconvenience 
caused.
With regard to the accident at Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station, on 
April 17, we have compiled the roadmap towards restoration from the accident 
and then we updated the progress status of roadmap considering the current 
situation, on July 19. Accomplishment of the Step1 target "Radiation dose 
is in steady decline" has been confirmed. On August 17, we updated the 
further progress. 
By bringing the reactors and spent fuel pools to a stable cooling condition 
and mitigating the release of radioactive materials, we will make every 
effort to enable evacuees to return to their homes and for all citizens to 
be able to secure a sound life.

Below is the status of TEPCO's major facilities.

*Underlined are new items 

[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) 

* At 9:35 am on August 31, we implemented the drainage work of spent vessels 
  at the temporary storage area for spent vessels for the water treatment 
  system. When workers, who assumed the valve was closed, dismantled the 
  hose, water from the tank and the hose scattered towards two (2) workers 
  from one of our affiliated companies. High-level radiation dose was 
  confirmed by measuring the radiation of the filters of the mask worn by 
  the workers. On the other hand, internal exposure was not confirmed 
  according to the results per the whole body counter.
* At around 3:00 pm on August 31, we confirmed water leakage near the sludge 
  transfer pump (B) for the coagulation settling instruments inside the 
  water treatment system (decontamination instruments). We bypassed a part 
  of the coagulation setting instruments and segregated the pump's 
  surroundings, then the leakage stopped. The treatment of the accumulated 
  water is continuing.

- Fukushima Daini Nuclear Power Station:
    Units 1 to 4: shutdown due to the earthquake

- Kashiwazaki Kariwa Nuclear Power Station:
    Units 5, 6: under normal operation
    (Units 1 to 4 and 7: outage due to regular inspections)

[Thermal Power Station]
- Power supply has returned to normal and facilities damaged by the 
  earthquake are now being handled in a timely manner.

[Hydro Power Station]
- Power supply has returned to normal and facilities damaged by the 
  earthquake are now being handled in a timely manner.

[Impacts on Transmission Facilities]
- Power supply has returned to normal and facilities damaged by the 
  earthquake are now being handled in a timely manner.

[Perspective of Power Supply and Demand Balance in this Summer] 
- In August and September, we forecast the maximum supply will be 56.1 GW, 
  and the assumed peak demand 48.9 GW.

We apologize for the inconvenience this may cause and appreciate for your 
cooperation to save electricity.
