According to a report by the Japan Broadcasting Association, citing information from the Tokyo Electric Power Company, after a strong earthquake occurred late on the night of December 8 off the eastern coast of Honshu in Japan, Japan's Fukushima Daiichi and No. 2 nuclear power plants “have yet to confirm any abnormalities due to the earthquake.” The Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant is currently undergoing decommissioning operations. Since the Japan Meteorological Agency issued a tsunami advisory for the coast of Fukushima Prefecture, TEPCO has instructed operators to evacuate the site close to the coast and suspended the discharge of nuclear contaminated water from the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant at 11:42 a.m. local time on December 8. On the 4th of this month, TEPCO began the 17th round of draining nuclear contaminated water into the sea.
