Press Release (Nov 04,2011)
Report to Nuclear and Industrial Safety Agency of the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry with regards to the detection of Xe135 at Unit 2 of Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station
 
Since October 28, 2011 we have been operating a gas control system for the 
nuclear reactor at Unit 2 of Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station. On 
November 1, as a result of the nuclide analysis by collecting charcoal 
filters installed inside a dust radiation monitor, some radioactive Xe135 
was detected, a nuclide with a short half-life (around 9 hours).

Today we have submitted a report to Nuclear and Industrial Safety Agency of 
the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry.
