Mandatory creation of evacuation plans for facilities used by individuals requiring special consideration

Due to the enforcement of the "Act to Partially Amend the Flood Control Act, etc.", in order to strengthen the evacuation system for facilities used by vulnerable individuals, the "Flood Control Act" and the "Disaster Prevention Act" were amended on June 19, 2017. Owners or managers of facilities used by vulnerable individuals located in flood-prone areas are now required to create evacuation assurance plans and conduct evacuation drills.
In response to this, Inagi City has established the creation of evacuation assurance plans and the implementation of evacuation drills in its regional disaster prevention plan.

In addition, due to the partial amendments to the "Flood Control Act" and the "Soil Disaster Prevention Act" on May 10, 2021, it has become mandatory to report on evacuation drills conducted based on the evacuation assurance plans created.

Evacuation Assurance Plan

The evacuation assurance plan is a plan that establishes the necessary items to ensure the smooth and prompt evacuation of users in the event of potential water disasters or landslides.

To ensure that the evacuation plan is practical, it is important for facility managers and others to take the initiative in creating it.
By conducting evacuation drills based on the created evacuation plan, its practicality will be further enhanced.
