Sediment disaster information
Overview
When heavy rain makes landslides or debris flows likely, the Japan Meteorological Agency issues sediment disaster information in five levels, from early caution (level 1) to special warning (level 5). Residents living in designated sediment-risk zones should check the warnings and the evacuation information issued by the ward, and take appropriate evacuation action. Suginami has six designated sediment-risk zones, in the Kugayama, Takaido, Horinouchi and Izumi areas; five of them are also special warning zones.
How to apply
Residents living in sediment-risk zones are asked to check the warnings and the ward's evacuation information, and to take appropriate evacuation action.
Who it is for
Residents living in or near places at risk of sediment disasters.
Where
Six designated sediment-risk zones in Suginami, in the Kugayama, Takaido, Horinouchi and Izumi areas.
