Evacuation activities decision flow chart (Page 7・Page 8)
“Evacuation Actions You Should follow” in the event of a disaster are described.
My timeline (Page 9)Maps showing the distribution of seismic intensity and damage to buildings expected in the event of an earthquake that would have a major impact on this town are available.
It is important to obtain correct information when a disaster is likely to occur or has occurred, and to take action as soon as possible.
Create a “My Timeline” for yourself and your family and decide in advance what actions to take so that you can act without panic in the event of heavy rain.
