    The Great East Japan Earthquake Report on the Damage to the Cultural Heritage A ship washed up on the rooft op of an building by Tsunami (Oduchi Town, Iwate Prefecture ) i Collapsed buildings (Kesennuma City, Miyagi Prefecture ) ii Introduction The Tohoku Earthquake (East Japan Great Earthquake) which occurred on 11th March 2011 was a tremendous earthquake measuring magnitude 9.0. The tsunami caused by this earthquake was 8-9m high, which subsequently reached an upstream height of up to 40m, causing vast and heavy damage over a 500km span of the pacifi c east coast of Japan (the immediate footage of the power of such forces now being widely known throughout the world). The total damage and casualties due to the earthquake and subsequent tsunami are estimated to be approximately 19,500 dead and missing persons; in terms of buildings, 115,000 totally destroyed, 162,000 half destroyed, and 559,000 buildings being parti ally destroyed. Immediately aft er the earthquake, starti ng with President Gustavo Araoz’s message enti tled ‘ICO- MOS expresses its solidarity with Japan’, we received warm messages of support and encourage- ment from ICOMOS members throughout the world. On behalf of Japan ICOMOS, I would like to take this opportunity again to express our deepest grati tude and appreciati on to you all. There have been many enquiries from all over the world about the state of damage to cultural heritage in Japan due to the unfolding events. Accordingly, with the cooperati on of the Agency for Cultural Aff airs, Japan ICOMOS issued on 22nd March 2011 a fi rst immediate report regarding the state of Important Cultural Properti es designated by the Government, and sent it to the ICOMOS headquarters, as well as making it public on the Japan ICOMOS website.

We collect the damage data of the systems by carrying out interviews for related local government sectors. We quantify two damage ratios R on physical damage points and RL on disrupted pipeline lengths, for 14 municipalities in Ibaraki prefecture and 8 municipalities in Chiba prefecture. Key Words: The 2011 off the Pacific Coast of Tohoku earthquake, water supply system, sewerage system, damage ratio, fragility curve ITRODUCTIO Water supply systems and sewerage systems were severely damaged at the 2011 off the Pacific Coast of Tohoku earthquake and tsunami which occurred on March 11, 2011. It caused large influence to social and economic activities since our society is strongly dependent on water treatment systems.
