Press Release (Nov 17,2011)
Nuclide Analysis Results of Radioactive Materials in the Air at the Site of Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station (237th release)
 
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.
                                                    (Previously announced)

On November 16, 2011, we conducted nuclide analysis of radioactive
materials contained in the air which was collected at the site of
Fukushima Daiichi and Daini Nuclear Power Stations. As shown in the
attachment, no radioactive materials were detected.

Also, we conducted an analysis about plutonium in the air which was
collected on October 31, but no plutonium 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.
