What is a flood hazard map?

In response to recent heavy rain disasters, the Flood Control Law wasrevised, and the rainfall conditions were changed from the "planned rainfall",which is focused on river maintenance, to the "estimated maximum rainfall".
This flood hazard map is based on the prediction of inundation assumingthat the Shogawa, Oyabe, Shindori, Shimojo, and Wada rivers are flooded
due to receiving the maximum expected rainfall and that multiple parts ofthe embankments are broken. It displays the range and water depth, andalso shows the designated emergency evacuation sites to which you canevacuate. In addition, it is not likely that all areas shown in the hazard map
will be flooded at the same time.
In this assumption, flooding of tributaries and small rivers, rainfall on alarger scale than expected, flooding due to storm surges and inland
waters, etc. are not taken into consideration. The inundation depth may
differ from the actual inundation depth

How to read and use the flood hazard map

If the area you live in has high rainfall, check how deep it will be flooded.
Check the nearest evacuation center and find a safe way to evacuate tothat center. Remember that during heavy rain, river water levels can riseand bridges can be closed.
If you believe that your house may collapse, that water in your area willreach a depth of 3m or more, or that a nearby river will overflow, you may
need to evacuate early.
If there is a risk of flooding, promptly follow the "Caution Level 3- Evacuation
Preparation/Evacuation Start for the Elderly", "Caution Level 4 - Evacuation
Advisory", and "Caution Level 4-Evacuation Instruction (Urgent)"
announced by the city. Please evacuate as detailed in those instructions.
If it is too late to safely evacuate to a designated emergency evacuation site,
do not put yourself at risk - at that point, please evacuate to a safe, high place.

Depending on the situation,
evacuate quickly
Even if evacuation information has
not been announced, please use
your best judgment to assess thesituation and if you think it will flood,evacuate of your own volition.

Be careful about evacuation during flooding
Even in shallow water, walking will
be difficult in a fast current. Also, be
careful when evacuating because
the water will be muddy and brownand may hide sharp objects andother dangerous things.

Use a safe route when evacuating
While evacuating, avoid riversides
and underground walkways, andchoose a wide path that is as safe
as possible.

Prepare personal information cards
Elderly people and children should
bring a note with their address, name,contact information,etc. on it inadvance and put it in a safe, dry placewhen they evacuate (so they can bebrought home if they get lost).

drills and check the flood hazard
map regularly to evaluate the safetyof your evacuation route.
