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, 2011, we have compiled the roadmap towards restoration from the accident and on July 19 we accomplished the Step1 target "Radiation dose is in steady decline". Then on December 16 we confirmed the accomplishment of the Step 2 target "Release of radioactive materials is under control and radiation doses are being significantly held down".
In addition, on December 21, 2011, we have compiled the "Mid-to-long-Term Roadmap toward the Decommissioning of Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Units 1-4, TEPCO".
In addition to the maintenance of the plant's stable condition, we will implement Mid-to-Long Term countermeasures towards the decommissioning of Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Units 1-4 to enable evacuees to return to their homes as soon as possible and reduce the anxiety of the people in Fukushima and the whole nation as soon as possible.

Below is the status of TEPCO's nuclear power stations (Fukushima Daiichi and Fukushima Daini).

* The updates are underlined.

[Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station]
· Unit 1 to 4: Abolishment (April 19, 2012)
· Unit 5 to 6: Outage due to regular inspections before the earthquake

- At 4:03 PM on April 27, we started the operation of the desalting facility (a mobile RO facility) which was newly installed for desalting the Unit 4 reactor well and the spent fuel pool. Since we have been conducting the spent fuel pool desalting with this facility. Since the preparation at the reactor well was completed, we started the test operation on June 13. There was no problem on the operating condition, and we started the full-scale operation of the reactor well desalting by utilizing this facility. Hereafter, we will switch the desalting accordingly between the reactor well and the spent fuel pool depending on the situation of the concentration of salt, and we will continue desalting with this facility. Since we confirmed decreasing salt concentration of the reactor well and the spent fuel pool at Unit 4, we stopped this facility at 2:35 PM on August 27.
