For early evacuation

Updated: May 20, 2021

In order to evacuate in a timely and appropriate manner, check with your family and community.                        

In the event of a natural disaster, the principle is to evacuate as early as possible based on your own judgment.
When the risk of a disaster occurring increases, the city will issue an evacuation order, etc. indicating the area corresponding to the type of disaster that could occur.
Check in advance what kind of dangers there are in your home, school, workplace, etc., as well as the designated evacuation centers and evacuation sites, and think about how you will evacuate in case of emergency.

Step 1 Find out what hazards exist at home, school or work.

Check the hazard map and confirm the dangers of frequently visited places such as homes, schools, and workplaces, such as how many meters the river will be inundated if it overflows, and whether it is in a sediment disaster warning area.
Check the evacuation shelters and evacuation sites (explanatory notes) designated by the city, and plan routes and means of transportation.

Note: Please note that it differs depending on the disaster type.

Step 2 Check the evacuation information issued by your local municipality

[How to obtain evacuation information]
・Administrative radio for disaster prevention: If the content is difficult to hear, please call the toll-free number dedicated to administrative radio for disaster prevention: 0800-800-9991.
・Television (NHK): Press the d button on the remote control to check the local disaster prevention and living information.
・Emergency Bulletin Mail・・・Emergency Bulletin Mail will be delivered to mobile phones/smartphones when evacuation information is issued.
・Inagi City Mail Delivery Service・・・This is a city registration system mail.
・Inagi City Official Twitter ・Inagi City Official Homepage・・・Evacuation information etc. will be posted in the latest information.
・Public relations using government vehicles, etc.

Evacuation information and actions that residents should take                         

vigilance level Evacuation information, etc. Actions to be taken by Residents, etc.
alert level 3 Evacuation of elderly people

<Circumstances in which the order is issued: There is a risk of disaster>
◎ Elderly people should evacuate from dangerous places (evacuation or secure indoor safety) (Note: 1).
Elderly people, etc. refer to elderly people living at home or using facilities that require time to complete evacuation, people with disabilities, etc., and those who assist them in evacuating.
・This is the timing for people other than the elderly to start suspending their usual activities such as refraining from going out, preparing for evacuation, or evacuating voluntarily.
For example, depending on the local situation, it is desirable for residents of places where it is desirable to evacuate early to voluntarily evacuate at this timing.

alert level 4

evacuation order
(Notes: 2)

<Situation to be issued: High risk of disaster>
◎Evacuate everyone from dangerous areas (evacuation or ensure safety indoors).

alert level 5

Emergency safety assurance
(Notes: 3)

<Circumstances in which the order is issued: disaster occurrence or imminence>
◎ Danger to life Ensure safety immediately!
・Emergency safety should be ensured if eviction is rather dangerous. However, in the event of a disaster or imminent disaster, it is not always possible to take this action safely, and even if this action is taken, it is not always possible to ensure personal safety.

Notes: 1. Evacuation: Evacuate to a designated emergency evacuation site or a safe place such as the home of a relative or acquaintance.
     Ensuring indoor safety: Move to a safer room, etc. within the building where you are at that time.
Note: 2 Evacuation orders (emergency) and evacuation advisories have been integrated, and evacuation advisories have been abolished.
Note: 3 Not necessarily information to be issued.
[Caution] In the event of a sudden disaster, the mayor of the municipality may not be able to issue evacuation information in time. If you feel it, evacuate voluntarily without hesitation.

Step 3 Think about it just in case.

For example, the following situations are possible, so let's think about emergency measures in advance.

Example 1 If it seems dangerous to move to an evacuation site due to heavy rain, etc., move to a nearby building that is considered safer (a building whose top floor is not flooded, a building that is not along a river, etc.).

Example 2 If it seems dangerous to go outside, move to a safer room in the building (a room on a higher floor, a room as far away from the mountains as possible).
