Fukushima Daiichi NPS Prompt Report 2013

This is follow-up information regarding the water leak from the underground reservoirs at Fukushima Daiichi NPS.

Today (April 11), chloride concentration analysis was performed in the drain holes of the underground reservoirs No.1-7 (at 14 locations) and the leakage detection holes (samples could not be collected at 2 out of 10 locations) of the underground reservoirs No.1-4 and 6. The results are as follows.

No significant change in the chloride concentration was found with the results compared to the previous day (April 10).
