We received a directive document* "Measures to be Taken for the Fracture Zone within the Grounds of Nuclear Power Stations (Direction)" from the Nuclear and Industrial Safety Agency of the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry today.
In response to the discussion at the government-sponsored hearing, we are planning a geological survey (boring survey, etc.) within the grounds of Kashiwazaki-Kariwa Nuclear Power Station and the surrounding areas. (Previously announced on August 23, 2012) In addition to the measures already planned, appropriate measures will be implemented in accordance with the direction given.
