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 September
20, 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.

*Updates are underlined

[Nuclear Power Station]  
-Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station Unit 1 to 3: shut down due to the
 earthquake
  (Units 4 to 6: outage due to regular inspections)
   * At 1:45 pm on Oct 11, we started sampling dust at the upper part
     of Unit 3 Reactor Building using a large crane vehicle.

-Fukushima Daini Nuclear Power Station: 
   Units 1 to 4: shutdown due to the earthquake
   * Out of 7 monitoring posts set at the boundary of the plant site, we
     started the replacement work of No.6 for the purpose of the
     preventive measure. The work is planned to be conducted from Oct 11
     to 21. This monitoring post won't be able to measure airborne
     radiation dose temporarily during the work, however, we will measure
     and the dose by the other 6 monitoring posts.

-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.

[Impacts on Power Supply and Demand Balance]
Thanks to our all customer's energy-saving efforts, we could successfully
maintain an even supply-demand balance in this summer. We express our
deepest appreciation to the efforts.

While we will continue to exert maximum effort to stabilize the supply
-demand balance, we kindly request your continued efforts in keeping
electricity consumption within reasonable levels.
