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 around 11:07 AM on September 22, during debris removal from the upper part of Unit 3 Reactor Building, a steel beam (Approx. 300mmx200mmx7m, Approx. 470kg) which had been on the side of the spent fuel pool (SFP) slipped and fell into the pool when a worker was trying to grab it using an oil-pressure fork attached to the head of the crane. At around 11:45 AM on the same day, it was confirmed that there was no problem with the operation status of the spent fuel pool alternative cooling system and the skimmer surge water level. No significant change was found in the monitoring post data, the atmosphere dose rate around the spent fuel pool and the spent fuel water level. No injury was reported due to this matter. The nuclide analysis results of the spent fuel pool water are as follows, and no significant difference was found among these sets of results.
[September 21 (Before the incident)]
Cesium 134: 2.4x10³Bq/cm³, Cesium 137: 4.0x10³Bq/cm³, Iodine 131: Below the detection limit (3.4x10¹Bq/cm³)
[September 22 (After the incident)]
Cesium 134: 2.2x10³Bq/cm³, Cesium 137: 3.6x10³Bq/cm³, Iodine 131: Below the detection limit (1.4x10¹Bq/cm³)
[September 23]
Cesium 134: 2.5x10³Bq/cm³, Cesium 137: 4.2x10³Bq/cm³, Iodine 131: Below the detection limit (1.6x10¹Bq/cm³)
