Press Releases 2013

Press Release (Sep 10,2013)Invitation of an External Professional, to the Contaminated Water and Tank Countermeasures Headquarters

On August 26 this year, we set up the "Contaminated Water and Tank Countermeasures Headquarters." Today, we have determined to invite Mr. Lake H. Barrett (former US Nuclear Regulatory Commission, and former US Department of Energy), an overseas expert familiar with clean-up and decontamination technology, as an outside expert to the "Contaminated Water and Tank Countermeasures Headquarters."
Based on his international knowledge and experience, acquired by engaging in control of the Three Mile Island accident at the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission, he will participate in the meetings of the Contaminated Water and Tank Countermeasures Headquarters and each project team, and will provide advice regarding decontamination issues such as contaminated water countermeasures at the request of TEPCO.
We recognize that bringing the contaminated water under control is the most urgent and serious issue that we must address. Supported by the Japanese government, and utilizing the immense amount of expertise provided by professionals around the world, all of us at TEPCO will strive relentlessly to rectify this issue.
