At around 3:20 PM today (on September 12), a TEPCO employee found water leaking from the accumulated water treatment system (vehicle-mount type) for Units 5 and 6.
Accordingly, the accumulated water treatment system was immediately stopped, and it was confirmed that the water leaking was stopped.
Water having leaked was found over a range of approx. 3m×3m×1cm.
At present, we are investigating details such as the conditions and cause of the leakage. Given that there is no watercourse such as a drainage ditch around the system, we consider that water having thus leaked has not flowed into the sea.
