On March 22, 2011, as a part of monitoring activity of the surrounding
environments, we conducted nuclide analyses of radioactive materials
contained in the air which was collected at the site of Fukushima Daiichi
Nuclear Power Station, which was damaged by the Tohoku- Chihou-
Taiheiyou-Oki Earthquake. As a result, radioactive materials were detected
and therefore, we summarized the results and reported them to Nuclear and
Industry Safety Agency (NISA) as well as to the government of Fukushima
Prefecture.
The analyses results of the three nuclides (Iodine-131, Cesium-134 and
Cesium-137) are to be released as fixed figures and the other nuclide
figures are to be revaluated.

On September 2, 2011, we conducted a nuclide analysis of radioactive
materials contained in the air which was collected at the site of
Fukushima Daiichi and Daini Nuclear Power Stations. As a result, no
radioactive materials were detected as described in the appendix.
We suspended the samplings which were planned yesterday at North Side
Slope of Unit 1, West Side Slope of Unit 1 and 2, West Side Slope of Unit
3 and 4, Upper of South Breakwater, and Upper of Megafloat of Fukushima
Daiichi, due to the weather condition.
Also, we conducted an analysis about plutonium and strontium in the air
which was collected on August 15, but no plutonium and strontium has been
detected as described in the appendix.
We reported the above results to NISA as well as to the government of
Fukushima Prefecture today.
We will continuously conduct the same sampling surveys.
