Uchino said the water contained a tiny amount of radioactive material -- a billionth of the guideline under Japanese law -- and is believed to have flushed into the Sea of Japan.
A company statement said the leak had stopped and that there had been no "significant change" in the seawater under surveillance and no effect on the environment.
