On April 29, 2011, we started sampling surveys of the seawater at 5 points 
in the 3km offshore area of Ibaraki Prefecture. 

From June 3, 2011, we conducted sampling surveys of lower layer of the 
seawater. 
                                                    (Previously announced)

Today we conducted a nuclide analysis of radioactive materials in the 
seawater sampled on July 19. We have reported the result of the analysis 
shown in the attachment to Nuclear and Industrial Safety Agency and the 
government of Ibaragi Prefecture.

Regarding 5 sampling points at offshore area of Ibaraki Prefecture that 
were planned to be taken, we conducted sampling at only 1 points at 
coastal area due to bad weather.
