We ask that you fully understand the following from the viewpoint of preventing the outflow and leakage of poisonous and deleterious substances, and take appropriate measures.

Prior response in normal times

Please refer to the hazard map, etc. to confirm whether facilities for storing poisonous substances exist in the inundation area or in the landslide warning area, as well as the rainfall and the height of inundation associated with the high tides.
