Press Release (Mar 29,2011)
Detection of radioactive materials from the seawater around the discharge canal of Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station(9th release)

---

On March 21st 2011, radioactive materials were detected from the 
seawater around the discharge canal (south) of Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear 
Power Station which was damaged by the 2011 Tohoku-Taiheiyou-Oki 
Earthquake. This is the result of the sampling survey of radioactive 
materials in the seawater which was implemented as a part of monitoring 
activity of surrounding environment. We had informed the result to 
Nuclear and Industrial Safety Agency (NISA) and Fukushima prefecture.
(previously announced)

On March 28th 2011, we had conducted re-sampling survey to examine the 
effect of radioactive materials in the seawater. Today, we had informed 
the result to Nuclear and Industrial Safety Agency (NISA) and the 
government of Fukushima Prefecture, because radioactive materials were 
detected as shown in the attachment.

We will continue to conduct same kind of sampling survey.
