The Oe Town Hazard Map displays the expected ﬂood inundation area when theMogami and Tsukinuno rivers overﬂow due to the assumed maximum rainfall that is
expected once every 1,000 years, the assumed ﬂood depth when inundated, and the areas
where there is a risk of landslide disaster due to heavy rain, torrential rain, etc.,
based on the publications of the country and the prefecture.

dangerous spots!

Check to see if the area around your home isdesignated as an expected ﬂood inundationarea, landslide warning area, etc., or if there
are any dangerous places.

Be sure to check the locations and conditions of risk of ﬂoods and landslides in the area
where you live and the surroundings on a daily basis. Also, in case of heavy rain, pay
attention to information such as how hard it is raining, weather information,and evacuation recommendations, and be prepared in case of an emergency.
