The present document is to report the result of resistivity monitoring by using MT(Magnetotelluric) method near the site proposed for the Horonobe Underground Research Program at Horonobe-cho, Hokkaido by the Japan Nuclear Cycle Development Institute. The stationary MT observation system, installed near the HDB-1 borehole on November 2002, was moved to a site at the Hokusei-en, 4km west of the first site. This system is monitoring for the depth of underground resistivity. 0bservation data at the Hokusei-en from February 1st 2004 to January 31st 2005 was added in the investigation in 2004 fiscal year. But, data cannot be acquired from July 8th to November 11th of 2004 due to the disconnection trouble of the optical fiber cable for data transfer.The results were as follows
