Current status of communication facilities
With regard to base station equipment, the earthquake and tsunami caused disruptions to the commercial power supply and equipment failure, primarily ユースカジノ 賭け条件 Tohoku and the Kanto Koshinetsu regions. As of 5:00 p.m. on March 12 (JST), 6,720 stations were inoperable.
DOCOMO, with the help of other NTT group companies and construction companies, mobilized a total of some 4,000 people to make an all-out effort to restore its communication services. By 2:00 p.m., ユースカジノ 賭け条件8 (JST), approximately 90 percent of the stations have been restored along with the recovery of the commercial power supply, leaving 690 stations remaining to be restored.
Many of the base station equipment yet to be restored include those that have suffered entrance circuit disruptions, submersion and physical damage of equipment, and those that are difficult to access ユースカジノ 賭け条件 the nuclear power plant incident.

For restoration going forward, DOCOMO has formulated a restoration plan for 375 base station*, equivalent to approximately 530 base station equipment with disrupted services (FOMA) ユースカジノ 賭け条件 three prefectures, Iwate, Miyagi and Fukushima. As for the 307 base stations ユースカジノ 賭け条件 Fukushima prefecture, excluding the 68 stations that are difficult to access due to the nuclear power plant incident, DOCOMO is endeavoring to restore a total of 248 stations (150 stations by mid-April and another 98 stations by late April) through restoration of transmission lines using optical fiber, micro-wireless circuits and satellite circuits and utilization of large zone schemes (a method to cover areas normally covered by multiple stations by utilizing a single station) by installing base stations at mountaintops and other locations.
ユースカジノ 賭け条件 remaining 59 stations, due to delays in restoration from physical damage to mountain areas and facilities within road tunnels, among other factors, satellite mobile phones and other devices will be provided at meeting places/centers.

ユースカジノ 賭け条件, communications traffic increased dramatically and it was difficult for calls to get through.
