Section 5 Initiatives to Promote National Resilience (PDF:906.2KB)
“Creating regional disaster management capabilities”: TOHATSU Co., Ltd. TOHATSU develop and manufacture portable fire pumps that are “small, lightweight and compact.” They are also used by Japanese fire brigades. The portable fire pump enables quick fire-extinguishing activities at a fire site at the end of a path inaccessible to fire engines and helps improve the disaster risk reduction capabilities of the region. Raindrops or snowflakes Weather radars are used to observe globally via the use of a The larger the droplet or snowflake, the rotating antenna stronger the emitted radio wave. The frequency changes depending on the movement of the droplets or snowflakes. Weather radar “Easy-to-assemble safe and secure toilet booth of storage type for disasters”: Kawahara Technical Research Co., Ltd. Kawahara Technical Research have developed a public private toilet booth that is mostly made of paper and can be easily assembled. Biological agents placed in a septic tank reduce the risk of infectious diseases. The public private toilet booth is lightweight and able to assemble easily, even by two women, without using tools. Section 5: Initiatives to Promote National Resilience 5-1 Decision of the National Resilience Annual Plan for 2019 The government reviewed the National Resilience Basic Plan (Decided at the cabinet meeting on December 14, 2018) and decided the first Annual Plan, “National Resilience Annual Plan for 2019” (hereinafter referred to as “Annual Plan 2019”) on June 11, 2019. The Annual Plan 2019 includes the following national resilience efforts to be implemented in FY2019: Major measures, such as embankment maintenance and improvement of earthquake resistance of houses, disaster 100 prevention and mitigation measures for small- and medium-sized enterprises, new support measures to eliminate utility poles, enhancing key performance indicators and introducing benchmark indicators to appropriately determine progress, etc.

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.

As of this writing, the death toll was 15,776 and expected to possibly reach 20,000. At least 5,929 others were injured and more than 4,225 people were officially listed as missing. The main magnitude-9.0 earthquake struck at 2:46 PM local time (5:46 UTC) with an epicenter 129 kilometers (80 miles) east of Sendai, Japan. The Tohoku earthquake is the largest known tremor to have struck Japan. This mega-thrust event occurred in an area where the Pacific Plate is thrust beneath the Eurasian and North American Plates, and ruptured an area 400 kilometers (249 miles) long and 50 kilometers (30 miles) wide. The ensuing tsunami was triggered as typically seen in cases of subduction zone events.
