On December 12, 2011, we received the directive document from NISA 
"Regarding the revision of safety regulation based upon the evaluation 
result of the facility management plan of Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power 
Plant, Tokyo Electric Power Company (Direction)*1".
                               (Previously announced on December 12, 2011)

Today, we submitted the application for the amendment to the Safety 
Regulations for Nuclear Reactor Facilities *2 of Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear 
Power Plant to NISA, in accordance with the direction.

The application summaries of the amendment to the Safety Regulations for 
Nuclear Reactor Facilities are as follows.

○It prescribes the operating and maintenance management of the following 
  facilities to make sure of the preservation management of the facilities 
  in conjunction with the circulating injection cooling system, and 
  prescribes an organization and duties, inspection, record and report etc. 
  to manage these systems.

(1) The water injection system for RPV and PCV
(2) The function to prevent the hydrogen explosion in PCV
(3) Spent fuel pools etc.
(4) The boric acid water injection system for RPV and PCV
(5) High-level radioactive contaminated water processing equipment, 
    Retention facilities (tanks etc.), Storage facilities for abolished 
    sludge, Storage facilities for used cesium adsorption tower and 
    Associated facilities (transportation pipe, transportation pump etc.)
(6) The buildings of retaining (including the case of accumulating) 
    high-level radioactive contaminated water
(7) Electric power system

                                                                       End

*2: Safety regulations for nuclear reactor facilities 
As per Article 37 Clause 1 of the Law on the Regulation of Nuclear Source 
Material, Nuclear Fuel Material and Reactors, this sets forth the basic 
matters for person who establishes the nuclear reactor to safely operate 
the nuclear power station (operation management, fuel management, 
radiation management, emergency procedures, etc.) and approved by the 
government.
