TOKYO, Japan - Combined photo shows a pit wall near the water intake of the No.2 reactor at the crippled Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant in Fukushima Prefecture at 5:40 a.m. on April 6, 2011 (top), and at 3:20 p.m. on April 5, 2011 (bottom). The top frame shows that the leakage of highly radioactive water from a crack in the pit wall has stopped. Tokyo Electric Power Co. said April 6 the outflow into the Pacific stopped after it injected the previous day sodium silicate into the gravel areas beneath the bottom of the pit. The photo on the bottom was taken shortly after the injection. (Photo courtesy of TEPCO)(Kyodo)

TOKYO, Japan - Handout photo shows radioactive water leaking to the sea from a crack in the wall of a pit near the water intake of the No. 2 reactor at the troubled Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant in Fukushima Prefecture on April 5, 2011. The photo was taken after the injection of ''water glass,'' or sodium silicate, by the plant operator into gravel areas beneath the pit's bottom, where radioactive water is believed to be seeping through, in an attempt to halt the leak. The water is colored white as the operator also poured in white bath agents to trace the route of flow. (Photo courtesy of Tokyo Electric Power Co.)(Kyodo)
