It's taken till now to get this far because they had a lot to accomplish. First they had to demolish the top of the building and remove all of the debris. Than they had to build another building on the side and over the top of the existing building (which they are currently starting to due for Unit 3) and then they had to remove 1188 fuel assemblies which they started last Nov. I believe. All while in a radioactively contaminated environment and addressing a hole other plethora of problems that have been springing up on the site. I've say they got it done pretty fast considering all of that.

I searched for someone other than TEPCO reporting this and I could not find anyone. If they had the press in the building, it should be all over the place.
It will take a lot more than just one story by TEPCO for me to believe anything they say after being lied to so many times. And you would believe that because the NRC and IAEA were there they must be telling the truth. Who do you think okay'd the original story in the first place. And you too, are entitled to believe what you want.
I really would like to believe this about some good news about Fukushima but it's difficult.

Thank goodness for places like ATS because you never even hear mention of Fukushima on Japanese TV anymore.

I guess I should've mentioned every single independent news source that is attempting to cover and give some kind of insight on the Fukushima problem.
I meant that I'm grateful for these sources, including ATS, who give some kind of insight on the situation. I live in Japan now, and there is absolutely no coverage (as far as I know) on TV about Fukushima lately.
The most popular TV news source here, NHK, is state-ran news, therefore I wouldn't expect to see anything from those guys; however, there are other news sources (again speculation) such as Asahi and Suntory that are failing to effectively report, or not report at all, Fukushima's status.

You are getting more dis-information than information ESPECIALLY here at ATS.
TEPCO has released photos supposedly of the interior of reactor building #4 which bear NO resemblance to the outside of the severely damaged building.
The largest and most expensive cover-up in the world is being perpetrated on it's citizens and if you are hearing a lone voice of reassurance from TEPCO you can be certain it's part of the manufactured truth.
There is information getting through, but none of it's from sources mentioned in this thread.
