Lake Hayami

Lake Hayami [林糸匆；はやみ・く] is a lake located in eastern Tomono Prefecture, south of the city of Akagetsu. It is the third-largest lake in the prefecture. 
The lake water is an important source for irrigation in the Tōwara Valley region of Tomono Prefecture. An irrigation canal was completed during the 17th century and another, the Hatsubaya Canal, in 1882. A third canal completed in 1915 supplies the small city of Hami with drinking and industrial water; this water also supplies a number of hydroelectric power plants. The lake is an important tourist and leisure attraction.
