All Metropolitan Citizens Should Prepare for Disasters Disaster Preparedness Manual-
1 Preparation at Home
To minimize damage and injuries when an earthquake occurs, it is important for each person to calmly take appropriate actions. This requires that people have correct knowledge regarding earthquakes and that they calmly carry out the predetermined actions they need to take.
Daily Preparation
1 Discuss preparedness with your family (1) Designate the duties of each person and the specic actions to take when a disaster occurs. (2) Designate how to check on each other s safety, a gathering location, and multiple common contacts. (3) For people receiving medical treatment, consult with the doctor or medical institution about evaluation methods and rescue measures in case of a disaster and then determine what measures to take.
2 Conduct a safety check of your house (1) Check if your home is built with earthquake resistant construction and if it complies with the Building Standards Act. (2) Also check the earthquake resistance of gate pillars and blockconstruction walls. (3) Use a hazard map and other information to check the disaster risk for the area where your home is located. Earthquake resistance assessment
Collapsing homes can kill people. In particular, homes built before the revision of the Building Standards Act on May 31, 1981, were designed under the old earthquake resistance standard and have a low level of safety for withstanding strong earthquakes. Such homes need to be given an earthquake resistance assessment and reinforced, etc., as required.
Section
1
3 Conduct a safety check of rooms (1) Secure furniture and home appliances that could fall over. (2) When storing items, store the heavy items at the bottom and the light items at the top, and attach stoppers to the doors. (3) Apply shatter-prevention lm to glass panels. (4) Keep slippers, exercise shoes, and work gloves close at hand in case you must walk through shattered objects. (5) Always keep doorways and exits free of clutter.
(6) If you live high o the ground (about the 10th oor and above), take measures to prevent furniture from being moved by long-period ground motion and measures against large, slow swaying.
For furniture that is rearranged regularly, take measures to prevent it from moving.
Use removable belts to fasten furniture to the walls.
For furniture that is not rearranged regularly, take measures to prevent it from moving.
Place caster holders under the casters and use poll braces to prevent the furniture from falling over.
If the furniture has caster locks, lock the casters.
Place caster holders under the casters.
Measures for furniture without casters (Furniture that is not easily placed against the wall) Suspended lighting
Flooring: Anti-earthquake mats, etc. Carpet: Anti-slip mats, etc.
(Back)
Falls down
Attach wires to the cover to prevent it from striking the ceiling, swaying, and falling.
*Taken from the handbook for preventing furniture from falling over, dropping, or moving available from the Tokyo Fire Department website.
*Local governments provide assistance with earthquake resistance assessment and earthquake resistant reinforcement and introducing and installing devices to prevent furniture and appliances from falling over. For inquiries, please refer to the Sections in Charge of Disaster Response for Municipal Authorities on page 21.
4 Create and check an evacuation route map (1) Check where the evaluation areas and centers are located. (2) Actually walk to the evaluation area or center. (3) Narrow roads might become impassable due to being blocked by falling debris, so select wide roads. You might also want to prepare multiple routes. (4) Check the areas that could be dangerous, such as block-construction walls, bridges, stairways, etc. (5) Check the important facilities, such as the police box, city hall, fire department, and hospitals. 5 Prepare portable emergency supplies (1) At the least prepare 3-days supply of food and water. For food, select non-perishable food that is not bulky. (2) Actually walk to the evaluation area or center. (3) Narrow roads might become impassable due to being blocked by falling debris, so select wide roads. You might also want to prepare multiple routes. Make the minimum necessary preparations for living in an evacuation center and place the portable emergency bag in a conveniently accessible location when evacuating.

Section

6 Prepare re extinguishers, etc. You should always keep re extinguishers ready in case of an emergency. Fire extinguish Triangular bucket Thick-soled slippers or exercise shoes Jacket Leave water in the bathtub, etc.
7 Create emergency contact cards (1) When a disaster occurs the situation is confusing and it is dicult to take calm action, so prepare what is necessary during an emergency ahead of time (family contact information, telephone numbers, etc.). (2) Write the type, quantity, dosage and method, and other information for medications you take regularly.
Section

2 Preparation at Work
1. When a disaster occurs, companies, etc., will have the employees and other people working in the workplace stay at the workplace until safety is assured, so they should strive to have enough water, food, blankets, and other supplies for 3 days. 2. Companies, etc., should strive to earthquake proof their buildings and take measures to prepare the workplace environment, such as preventing office furniture from falling over, dropping, or moving, and to prevent glass from shattering, etc., so that employees can safely wait in the workplace. 3. Companies, etc., should strive to set policies in advance regarding employees staying in the workplace or returning home in the case of a major earthquake, such as one beneath the capital, and should make these policies known to employees and others. 4. Companies, etc., should determine in advance how the safety of people can be checked between the workplace and the employees and multiple means for checking safety between the employees and their families should be explored and the employees notied of which means to use. 5. Companies, etc., should hold regular training and revise measures as necessary. 6. Companies, etc., should strive to determine in advance together with the local government and disaster preparedness civic organizations (volunteer disaster preparedness organizations) what measures to take during a major earthquake, such as one beneath the capital and to strive to maintain constant cooperation with these organizations. 7. For facilities where many people gather, terminal railroad stations, etc., local governments and related organizations should cooperate with operators to encourage appropriate waiting and provide guidance to protect the users.
The TMG enacted the Tokyo Metropolitan Ordinance Covering the Measures for People Who Have Difficulty Returning Home in March 2012 to go into eect in April 2013. This ordinance requires workplaces to provide enough water, food, and other supplies for 3 days for workers staying at the workplace and to protect users in train stations and other facilities where many people gather. Please see page 31 for details.
Disaster Management Plan for Your Business

Regardless of their usage or scale, all business premises in Tokyo must have a disaster management plan according to the Metropolitan Disaster Management Ordinance. For how to prepare a plan, contact your local re station.

3 Local Area Preparation

Routine Preparation
1 Routine Preparation
Plan interaction with the local community (1) Strengthen interaction with the local community by actively participating in the activities of the neighborhood association, etc., and the training by disaster preparedness civic organizations. (2) Having the elderly and disabled regularly participate in disaster preparedness activities helps the people in the local community understand that these people are limited in what they can do for themselves and thus build the relationships necessary to provide aid to these people in an emergency.
2 Lessons Learned from the Great East Japan Earthquake

Just as the self-help and mutual help taken by the people living in the area aected by the Great East Japan Earthquake were a great force for good during the disaster, it is important for people close by to help each other and for the nearest neighbors to help each other. For this reason, lets make advanced preparations and conduct training on a routine basis so that the disaster preparedness related departments in the TMG and the local governments, fire companies, disaster preparedness civic organizations (volunteer disaster preparedness organizations), and other groups involved with local disaster preparedness can strengthen their mutual cooperation system to conduct the initial reghting, rescue, relief, and evacuation activities during a disaster.
3 Disaster Preparedness Civic Organizations

Lets increase the awareness of each resident in the local community, utilize the organizational capabilities and impetus of businesses, and participate in a variety of activities in the local community to improve the disaster preparedness of town councils, local governments, etc., which are responsible for mutual assistance within the community, and increase our capability for self-help and mutual assistance.
*Disaster preparedness civic organizations are organizations the eectively take disaster preparedness measures for their local communities to protect our community ourselves through the mutual cooperation of local people.
4 Support for Disaster Preparedness Neighborhood Organizations

The TMG cooperates with local governments and related organizations to support the motivated mutual assistance activities of neighbors, town councils, local governments, PTAs, youth associations, companies, commercial districts, schools, and other organizations active in the local community that can be called disaster preparedness neighborhood associations. 8

*10 Points when an Earthquake Occurs was taken from the Tokyo Fire Department website.
Evacuation
When evacuating, first form a temporary group by gathering in a nearby small park, etc., and then after forming an orderly evacuation formation, check if the disaster is spreading while following the directions of the disaster preparedness civic organization leader, local government employee, police officer, or other person in charge to evacuate to the evaluation site. It may be possible to go directly to the evacuation site depending on the local conditions and state of the disaster.
10
Evacuation Center
1 What is an evacuation center?
(1) Often, the neighborhood elementary school is designated as an evacuation center. (2) Medical aid stations are set up in evacuation centers above a set number of people in size (about 500 or more people). (3) Medical aid stations have doctors, nurses, and others on standby to provide medical consultation, rst aid, and simple medical care. (4) When the medical need exceeds the capability of the medical aid station, the person is relocated to a medical organization that can provide the needed care. (5) Public health nurses and others will make rounds visiting the evacuation centers to oer health consultations.
Section
1
2 What is a secondary evacuation center?

(1) Secondary evaluation centers are prepared for people who requires medical care, nursing care, or similar services that make it dicult for them to live in an evacuation center. (2) Secondary evacuation centers are not necessarily suciently barrier free, so the center might need to be checked rst. (3) Medical aid stations have doctors, nurses, and others on standby to provide medical consultation, rst aid, and simple medical care. (4) When the medical need exceeds the capability of the medical aid station, the person is relocated to a medical organization that can provide the needed care.
3 To check the location of evacuation centers:

(1) You can check the location of evacuation centers, etc., on the Shelter Map in the TMG Disaster Prevention website. (2) To access the TMG Disaster Prevention website, click on the following URL. http://www.bousai.metro.tokyo.jp/
It clicks here.
4 Lets help each other while living in the evacuation center.

(1) Life is the evacuation center is jointly run by the sta and the self-governing evacuees. (2) Lets follow the rules, divide up duties as much as possible, and help each other while living there. 11

Checking on People s Safety

When a disaster occurs, be sure to notify others you are safe and to check on your family s safety. Regular telephone lines will be jammed, so use the Disaster Memo Dial 171, a disaster memo board, etc. You can experience the disaster memo service on the 1st and 15th of each month and during Disaster Preparedness Week (August 30 to September 5).

5 Considerations for Those Needing Aid During a Disaster

Local
Section
1
Area Disaster Preparedness Measures
It is difficult for people that need assistance during a disaster to correctly and quickly obtain information, evacuate, sustain their lives, and conduct other activities during a disaster. Each of us should routinely be aware and coordinate with neighbors and other people in the local community to create a support structure.
Term
Person requiring assistance during a disaster
This includes the elderly, disabled, seriously ill, pregnant and nursing mothers, children, injured, and foreigners among others.
1 People requiring assistance

Proactively interact with people in the local community on a routine basis to understand the assistance that is needed. Also participate in disaster preparedness training and expand the circle of cooperation in the local community.
2 For neighbors and other people in the local community

Proactively interact on a regular basis with the elderly and disabled in the local community, accurately gather the required information in advance, and prepare a support structure so that people will ask for assistance without reservation during an emergency. Please strive to understand different disabilities and regularly talk with disabled persons and oer them assistance.
Routine
Preparation
1 Self-help and mutual assistance

Social support and the services used to date will be limited from the time a disaster occurs until the recovery is completed. It is important to keep self-help and mutual assistance in mind and make sufficient preparations in advance to match the various circumstances. This will eliminate insecurity when a disaster occurs and creates a situation that makes it easier to receive assistance.
2 The elderly, physically disabled, pregnant women and children, sick and injured people
(1) Ensuring safety for when a disaster occurs Ex: Ensure rooms are safe, prevent furniture from falling over, prevent glass from shattering, etc. 13
Section
1
(2) Evacuation locations and evacuation methods Ex:Check in advance by holding disaster preparedness training with your family and neighbors. (3) Secure the minimum required items for living in an evacuation center or living with assistance, etc. Ex:Prepare 3 days worth of portable emergency supplies and medications (these may be dicult to obtain).
3 Persons with visual impairments

(1) Preparation for if the accustomed road textured block tiles or guidance equipment is damaged Ex:Check multiple evacuation routes in advance. Ask family members or surrounding people for guidance when aected by a disaster. (2) Information gathering method when the usual means, such as television, telephone, radio, or the Internet cannot be used. Ex:Ask in advance for help from people in the local community and have them check on how you are doing. (3) How to seek help if trapped inside your house, etc. Ex:Carry a whistle, anti-crime buzzer, etc.
4 People with hearing impairments, children, foreigners

(1) Cannot communicate smoothly or tell others what you need Ex:Prepare language cards or emergency contact cards in advance and prepare what you will need. (2) Actions to take when struck by a disaster when away from home, such as at work or school Ex:Designate a meeting place in advance, etc. References: 1. Guidelines for Manuals for Aiding People the Require Assistance During a Disaster 2. What You Can Do for Children Before an Earthquake Strikes (For Pregnant Women and the Guardians of Children) (Prepared by the TMG Bureau of Social Welfare and Public Health)
Please remember Trac Restrictions

Trac restrictions are put into place immediately after a major earthquake occurs. The extent of the trac restrictions will vary depending on the aected area and conditions, so listen carefully to the related information and follow the instructions. *Please refer to the specic trac restrictions on page 20.

6 Responses to Non-earthquake Disasters

(1) Dealing with Storm and Flood Damage
Typhoons and severe rainstorms should not be taken lightly just because they are unpredictable. Routine preparations are important to minimize storm damage.
Section
1
Routine Preparations
1 Discuss preparations with your family 2 Prepare the outside of your home (1) With the cooperation of your family and neighborhood, close the shutters and if necessary batten them down from the outside. Reinforce your home, such as by taping the windows. (2) Fasten down or bring inside items that could be blown around by the wind. 3 Prepare the inside of your home (1) Reinforce your home, such as by taping the windows. Close the curtains or blinds to protect against items that might y through the windows. (2) In case the water is shut o, obtain drinking water and ll the bathtub with water to use for domestic use.
Actions to take when a damaging storm approaches

1 Gather information (1) Get the latest information from the television, radio, etc. Weather information (warnings, watches, etc.) Evacuation related information 2 Check your portable emergency supplies
Evacuating
1 Pay attention to ocial information (1) If information to prepare for evacuation is announced, begin evacuation of those requiring assistance during a disaster. Take your portable emergency bags and follow directions to evacuate to the evacuation center. (Information will be provided via television, radio, disaster warning speakers, disaster warning community wireless system, and loud speaker cars.) (2) Be sure to begin evacuating when an evacuation advisory is given. Take your portable emergency bags and follow directions to evacuate to the evacuation center. 2 Evacuation Precautions (1) When evacuating, watch out for falling objects, such as signs. (2) Do not get caught in a disorderly crowd. (3) Take action with others close by at night or when the power is out. In particular, take people requiring assistance to the evacuation center or a safe location.
What is evacuation preparation information? Residents may need to be evacuated especially during disasters from storm damage or an earthquake. In this case, the information provided to make advance preparations for people needing assistance during a disaster is broadcast via television, radio, etc. Information is provided in the same way for evacuation advisories, etc.
15
Section

(2) Dealing with New Inuenza Viruses

Let s routinely strive to prevent inuenza infections
Following are general measures for preventing infection from infectious disease such as new strains of inuenza. 1 Observe coughing etiquette (1) Wear a mask if you have symptoms of illness. (2) Cover your mouth and nose with a tissue when you cough. (3) Turn your face away from the people around you. 2 Wash your hands when returning from outside. 3 Keep indoor environments at a proper humidity and ventilated. 4 Life a healthy lifestyle and get proper rest. 5 Eat nutritionally balanced food and drink enough uids. 6 Only go outdoors when necessary and avoid crowds as much as possible.
If a new strain of inuenza occurs in Japan

1 Follow the instructions of the national government, local government, and medical institutions. 2 Get information from television, radio, etc. 3 If you suspect you have become infected (if you have noticeable symptoms such as a temperature of 38C or higher, diarrhea, vomiting, etc.), receive an examination by a doctor as soon as possible.
In case of a new influenza outbreak, the World Health Organization (WHO) will identify the countries with outbreaks, and notify all nations. After the outbreak has been identied, the Japanese government will take measures to prevent the spread of infection by monitoring airport and port facilities for those arriving from areas of outbreak; furthermore, the government will request its people to refrain from going abroad to aected areas. When a new inuenza virus has been conrmed in Japan, hospitalization recommendation measures will be taken in accordance with the Infectious Diseases Control Law; carefully check the information released by TMG, municipalities, and other bodies before requesting an examination. Vaccination is effective in influenza prevention; however, vaccines for new inuenza can only be developed after the new strains have been identied, often taking more than 6 months for their development.
16
(3) Dealing with Terrorist Attacks

Terrorism is not just causing explosions using bombs but includes the use of substances that cause mass deaths (N: Nuclear materials, B: Biological agents, C: Chemical agents, R: Radioactive materials) and other risks that must be taken into consideration. In the case of NBCR terrorism in particular, the response to take depends on the substance used for the terrorism act. If an act of terrorism actually occurs, it is important to try to get information from the television, radio, etc., follow the instructions from the government, and to act calmly.
Section
1
Evacuation Actions
1In case of an explosion
1Keep low to the ground to protect yourself. 2If objects are falling, stay under a sturdy desk or a table until they stop falling. 3After objects stop falling, swiftly move away from the building or the spot where the explosion occurred.
2 If nuclear materials (nuclear bomb, etc.) were used

1Hide under a cover or behind a screen. If accessible, go inside a basement or a concrete building. 2Put your jacket or coat over your head, cover your mouth and nose with a handkerchief, etc., keep skin exposure to a minimum, move as far away as possible form the explosion site. Avoid going downwind; evacuate in the direction perpendicular to the wind.
3 If a biological agent (bacteria, virus) was used

1Wash your hands, face, and body thoroughly with soap. 2Avoid intake of water or food which may be con taminated. 3If there is someone who may be contaminated near you, do not touch the things he or she has used, and wash your hands often.
4 If a chemical agent (sarin, etc.) was used

1Cover your mouth and nose with a handkerchief, and move away from the attack site. 2Go to a safe location unlikely to be contaminated, such as inside a tightly sealed building or an upwind high ground. 3Remove contaminated clothes, watches, contact lenses, etc., tightly seal them in a plastic bag outdoors, and dispose of them. 17

Section 2 TMG Disaster Preparedness Measures

Section
1 Securing Special Emergency Transportation Roads

In April 2011, the TMG put into force the Ordinance to Promote Earthquake Proofing of Buildings Along Emergency Transport Roads in Tokyo to urgently promote the earthquake proong of buildings along the emergency transport roads that are indispensable for relief eorts and recovery after an earthquake. The roads along which buildings need to be earthquake proofed (designated emergency transport roads) were designated on June 28, 2011. (See map)

TMG Disaster Preparedness Measures
Designated Emergency Transport Roads Expressways Other than expressways

Designated Emergency Transport Roads
(Reference) Emergency transport roads other than designated emergency transport roads.
Expressways Other than expressways (Reference) Emergency transport roads other than designated emergency transport roads.
Total length of designated emergency transport roads: Approx. 1,000 km Number of buildings along designated emergency transport roads: Approx. 5,000 buildings
Owners of buildings along designated emergency transport roads are required to have earthquake resistance assessments made of their buildings
Since the emergency transport roads are the main arteries for rescue and relief, firefighting activities, materials transport, and restoration and recovery, it is very important to prevent them from being blocked by collapsed buildings to protect the lives and property of citizens and to keep metropolitan Tokyo functioning. For this reason, the TMG has designated particular important roads as designed emergency transport roads and requires that all buildings along roads to which the set conditions apply (designated road buildings) be given earthquake resistance assessments and is providing nancial assistance for this.
Ordinance to Promote Earthquake Proong of Buildings Along Emergency Transport Roads in Tokyo June 28, 2011 Designation of designated emergency transport roads October 1, 2011 Start of requirement to report earthquake resistance status April 1, 2012 Start of requirement to conduct earthquake resistance assessment
Denition of Designated Road Buildings

A building for which any of the following applies is a designated road building.
a) Buildings on a site that contacts a designated emergency transport road b) Excluding buildings for which construction began on June 1, 1981, or later (Old earthquake resistance standard*1) c) Buildings of a height equal to or greater than the distance calculated by adding 1/2 of the road width*2 to the horizontal distance from the boundary of the designated emergency transport road to the respective parts of the building.
*1: The building design standard for earthquake resistance was greatly strengthened in 1981 and is when the new earthquake resistance standard that is the basis for the current earthquake resistance standard was implemented. *2: This is 6m when the width of the designated emergency transport road is less than 12m.

2 Measures for Areas of Concentrated Wooden Housing

Section
2
Current Situation and Issues

Areas of concentrated wooden housing (hereinafter wood housing areas ) are widely distributed in metropolitan Tokyo outside of the Yamanote railway circle. The TMG has created the Promotional Plan for a Disaster-Resistant City in cooperation with the wards, which designates upgrade zones in wood housing areas where great damage is likely (28 zones, approx. 7,000 ha) in which the preparation of roads as rebreaks and making structures reproof and earthquake resistant are being promoted. Since many of the people living in these houses are elderly, however, there is little demand to rebuild the houses, the small size of the plots makes rebuilding dicult, and the complex rights relationships means reaching agreements takes time, so making progress in this area is dicult.

Wood Housing Area Fireproong 10-Year Project

This project will focus for 10 years on the upgrade zones through the following activities to create a city where fires in wood housing areas do not spread and where the housing does not burn.
Section
2
1 Promotion of Urban Area Fireproong in Cooperation with the Wards

To prevent the recreation of wood housing areas and promote replacing wooden structures with re resistant and semi-re resistant building, the TMG has greatly expanded the areas subject to re prevention regulations based on the TMG building safety ordinances. In areas particularly requiring improvement, the TMG has newly established a system for providing special assistance for fireproofing (Fireproofing Promotion Special Upgrade Zones (reproong zones)) in cooperation with the wards, which are already engaging in such activities.
2 Preparation of Major Urban Plan Roads that Form Firebreaks

The preparation of major urban plan roads, which are very eective during disaster responses and also serve as a space for blocking the spread of urban res and for evacuation and rescue activities, will be promoted. The roads will be designated and a new system created to provide special support for the related rights holders to rebuild their lives, etc., (special preparation roads) to accelerate the preparation of urban plan roads by the TMG.
3 Building momentum to create disaster resistant neighborhoods in local areas

This activity will create momentum for building disaster resistant neighborhoods as part of the local area through awareness programs directed at the residents of wood housing areas to communicate the dangers of earthquakes, the importance of self-help and mutual assistance, and to promote a shared sense of danger.

3 Measures for High Tides and Tsunami

Section
2
Jurisdiction of the Bureau of Port and Harbor

To protect metropolitan residents from emergency situations, such as tsunami and high tides, the TMG Bureau of Port and Harbor has established approximately 50 km of coastal levees and 19 ood gates. The bureau has 5 sub-centers in the Port of Tokyo which are overseen by the High Tide Response Center. A remote control system has been in operation since 1979 and this is used to centrally manage information, provide an integrated instruction and command system, and to quickly operate the ood gates, etc. All high tide response facilities are also routinely managed, maintained, inspected, and their equipment operated to ensure they are functioning properly. To further strengthen the crisis management system in the future, the operation functions of each sub-center will be consolidated accompanying the rebuilding of the system to put a high tide response center in two locations so that in case one of them is disabled by a disaster, the other one can continue remote operations.

5 Promoting Disaster Preparedness through Neighborhood Associations

The TMG cooperates with local governments and related organizations to support the motivated mutual assistance activities of neighbors, town councils, local governments, PTAs, youth associations, companies, commercial districts, schools, and other organizations active in the local community that can be called disaster preparedness neighborhood associations. First, danger awareness programs are conducted taking into consideration local characteristics to increase the disaster awareness of each metropolitan resident and to make metropolitan residents widely aware of the importance of mutual assistance. Then study sessions and practical training and guidance are held for neighborhood association and other leaders to train leaders to handle mutual assistance in local areas. Opportunities are also created for mutual assistance leaders in the local area to interact to promote the creation of human networks. In addition, advanced activities in metropolitan Tokyo will be studied and identied and then certied as Tokyo Disaster Preparedness Neighborhood Organizations and widely introduced to metropolitan residents to promote mutual assistance activities among dierent local areas in metropolitan Tokyo. Further, several districts will be selected as model districts to which experts will be dispatched to provide detailed advice taking into consideration the characteristics of the local area to support the proactive conduct of activities. The districts selected as model districts will use festivals and other events to implement example advanced methods and attract the younger generations to participate in disaster preparedness activities to further enhance local activities.

6 Measures for Stranded People

Section
2
Background of Measures for Stranded People

According to the Damage Estimation of an Inland Earthquake Directly Below Tokyo (May 2006), approximately 4.48 million people in metropolitan Tokyo will be stranded when an earthquake occurs. Further, according to the fact-finding study announced by the Council for Measures for Persons Stranded by an Earthquake Directly Below Tokyo announced in November 2011, the number of people in Tokyo stranded by the Great East Japan Earthquake on March 11, 2011, was 3.52 million, and the number for the entire Tokyo metropolitan area was 5.15 million.
Council for Measures for Persons Stranded by an Earthquake Directly Below Tokyo
Comprehensive measures, including self-help and mutual assistance, are indispensable for assisting stranded people because public assistance from the government along is insucient for dealing with the huge number of stranded people, including discouraging en masse attempts to walk home and providing support for orderly walking home, as well as the many dead, injured, and homeless expected as a result of an earthquake directly beneath Tokyo. To further promote these measures it is important that they not only be implemented by the national government, local governments, and businesses, etc., but that cooperative and collaborative eorts also be made. For this reason, the TMG and the Cabinet Oce (part in charge of disasters) are taking what was learned from the Great East Japan Earthquake and have established the Council for Measures for Persons Stranded by an Earthquake Directly Below Tokyo to facilitate sharing of information among the national government, local governments, and businesses, etc., and to study cross-jurisdictional issues.
(Joint Chairs) Cabinet Oce, TMG (Main Participating Organizations) Related ministries and agencies; local government in metropolitan Tokyo; telecommunications, railroad, broadcasting, and other business organizations. Total of 33 organizations (Description of Activities) To study cross-jurisdictional solutions to the following measures for stranded persons

Measures for Stranded Persons Training

In view of the confusion that occurred around train stations during the Great East Japan Earthquake, training was conducted mainly focusing on the major terminal stations of Tokyo Station, Shinjuku Station, and Ikebukuro Station. In addition to the common training given at each location (protecting the passengers on the station grounds, etc.), training that matches the characteristics of each location was also set. In addition, some of the training was made blind to provide realistic training. The railroad companies, oce buildings, department stores, and others that participated made manuals in advance and veried the procedures, etc., for discouraging employees from returning home en masse and for protecting customers. The results from the training and the issues it identied were reported to the Council for Measures for Persons Stranded by an Earthquake Directly Below Tokyo and reected in the established measures.

TMG Ordinance Covering Measures for Stranded Persons Enacted

In march 2012, the TMG enacted an ordinance for comprehensively promoting measures for stranded persons based on the concept of self-help, mutual assistance, and public assistance. The ordinance will come into force in April 2013. The specic methods for implementing the activities prescribed by the ordinance will be compiled in an implementation plan together with the TMG s support policies. (Discouraging people from returning home en masse) As outlined below, action must be taken based on the basic principle of not unnecessarily moving when a large-scale disaster occurs. (Main Activities by Tokyo Residents)
Do not move unnecessarily and try to remain at your workplace or current location after conrming it is safe. Talk with your families ahead of time and establish a means to contact each other. In advance, check out routes for walking home and keep comfortable walking shoes, etc., at your workplace.
(Main Activities of Businesses)

Have employees and others stay in the workplace after making sure the facilities are safe. Also strive to store enough water, food, and other supplies for 3 days to make this possible. Businesses will strive in advance to secure a means for contacting employees and to have employees secure a means for contacting their family members, etc..
(Protecting Users of Train Stations, etc.)

Railroad companies and administrators of facilities where customers gather will strive to protect users by having them stay in the station or facility or by guiding them to a safe location.
(Actions taken by Schools, etc.)

When a disaster occurs, school administrators and others will strive to keep the children, students, and others safe by having them stay in the facility, etc.
(Checking on People s Safety and Providing Information) The TMG, in cooperation with related organizations, shall establish systems for checking on people s safety and for providing disaster related information. When a disaster occurs, the TMG shall notify metropolitan residents and businesses who to check on people s safety and provided required information. (Securing of Temporary Stay Facilities) TMG facilities and TMG related facility will be specied as temporary stay facilities for shoppers, tourists, and others who are stranded. Cooperation will also be sought from the national government, municipalities, and private businesses. (Support Returning Home) Station to provide support returning home during a disaster will be secured to provide water, toilets, etc., to support people who are walking home.

10 TMG Initial Earthquake Response

Section
2
Disaster Management by TMG

In case of a disaster, the TMG staff will take prompt initial response actions, assembling at appropriate locations, such as the Disaster Prevention Center or their TMG oces. Saving lives is the top priority, and specic disaster management actions include gathering and distributing disaster information, rescue, first aid, traffic regulation, and evacuation. TMG will work in coordination with the national and municipal authorities, the Metropolitan Police Department, the Tokyo Fire Department, and relevant facilities, to protect its residents. TMG will also request the dispatch of Self-Defense Force personnel for further support.
Initial Earthquake Response
Role of the TMG Disaster Prevention Center

The TMG Disaster Prevention Center, located in the TMG Building, is the central communication center for disaster management, analyzing data, deciding on measures, and giving instructions. In case of a disaster, Disaster Management Headquarters is set up here. The Center is equipped with image data communication and emergency wireless systems; furthermore, the TMG Building, in which the Center is located, is designed to withstand quakes of about the same intensity as the Great Kanto Earthquake. [Tachikawa District Disaster Prevention Center] The Tachikawa District Disaster Prevention Center is the base for disaster prevention activities over the Tama area under instruction from the TMG Disaster Prevention Center. Located about 30 km from the TMG Disaster Prevention Center, it also functions as a secondary center. 36

Mutual Support and Cooperation

(1) When an earthquake causes extensive damage over a wide area, eorts by TMG organizations alone may not suce. To prepare for such cases, TMG has a mutual support agreement with the neighboring local authorities regarding the distribution of daily necessities such as food and water, as well as provision of medical care.
2) Other mutual cooperation systems by TMG include: dispatch of medical sta by the Tokyo Medical Association, and agreements with private-sector organizations for providing daily necessities, building supplies, construction of temporary housing, etc.
37
11 Storm and Flood Damage

Section
2
Present State
Around 30 typhoons strike Japan each year, causing damage with gusty winds and torrential rains across the nation. TMG has implemented measures including modifying river routes, establishing reservoirs, and developing oodwalls, thus achieving a signicant reduction in damage. [Urban Flooding] In Tokyo, urbanization has led to the dominance of nonpermeable surfaces, which causes rainwater to amass and gush into rivers in a short span of time. Furthermore, there have been frequent torrential rains, thought to be caused by the urban heat island eect. Today, the number of torrential rains of 100 mm/hr or more is 2.3 times the number 30 years ago. [Damage by Torrential Rains] In September 2005, Typhoon No. 14 and the autumn rain front caused a torrential rain with a precipitation of 100 mm/hr. in the western wards area. The Kanda River, the Myoshoji River, and the Zenpukuji River ooded, causing damage to about 6000 buildings in Suginami-ku, Nakanoku, etc; it was the rst time in 12 years that the Disaster Relief Act was applied.
Typhoon: A tropical low pressure system that appears in the northwest Pacic, with a maximum velocity of 17 m/sec or more. Storm surge: An oshore rise of water due to a typhoon or a strong wind. When the water level rises above the oodwalls, coastal areas and downriver lowlands may be ooded. Torrential rain: Massive precipitation in a localized area; often involve heavy rain and thunder, lasting for many hours at any time of the day.
Disaster-Prone Locations
For storm surges: Lands near a shoaling beach, at the end of a bay, or at the mouth of a river; coastal lands near sea level For oods: Alluvial plains, riverbanks For landslides: Reconstructed lands, alluvial fans, mountainous regions
Countermeasures by TMG
Tokyo Metropolitan Area Disaster Prevention Plan (for Storm and Flood Damage) Tokyo Metropolitan Area Disaster Prevention Plan was revised in May 2007. [Characteristics of the Plan] (1) Strengthened the torrential rain measures, such as general ood control measures, initial response system, network with the municipalities and disaster prevention organizations, etc. (2) Specied countermeasures against large oods (3) Reect the results from training to date, (4) Clarify the measures to take after roughly 7 days have passed since the disaster occurred and the organizations to implement them. *The Tokyo Metropolitan Regional Disaster Countermeasures Plan based on the Tokyo Metropolitan Disaster Countermeasures Policies (established in scal 2011)
38
Precautions
Flood-Control Works TMG is promoting flood-control works in areas such as river basins surrounded by the No. 7 Beltway (Kanjo 7 go-sen), which have experienced or are prone to ood damage. In ten years, 90 % of the oods in the past 30 years will be prevented from repeating. Support for the Preparation of Flooding Hazard Maps The municipalities are making easy-to-read flooding hazard maps, which indicate flood damage estimation and evacuation methods. TMG, together with relevant organizations, supports the municipalities in the preparation and release of these maps.
Section
2
At the Onset of a Disaster

Immediate Response Disaster Measure Headquarters Immediate Response Disaster Measure Headquarters is set up, mostly in case of a torrential rain, to ensure a centralized yet mobile body lling in until the Disaster Measure Headquarters is set up. Information Sharing by Municipalities with a Common River System Municipalities with a common river system have a high chance of being ooded simultaneously; hence useful information regarding evacuation, etc., is shared with each other. Wide-Area Evacuation Expanding into Other Prefectures When the banks of a large river system collapse, a large area of low lands is expected to be ooded, which may prevent the use of designated shelters and necessitate evacuation into adjacent prefectures. For such cases, the 8 Metropolitan Authorities have decided on the 8 Metropolitan Authorities Wide-Area Disaster Prevention Plan, which summarizes the mutual support system among the authorities, etc.
Informing the Residents

TMG Disaster Prevention Website TMG Disaster Prevention Website provides information on disaster damage, train operation status, trac, etc., supporting a swift initial response and return home for those outside. Evacuation Information At the onset of a disaster, in cooperation with the media, evacuation recommendations and other pertinent information will be broadcast.
Summary
In case of storm or ood damage, or chances thereof, the municipalities will decide on an evacuation recommendation based on the meteorological data, the water level, and the estimated time needed for evacuation. TMG and the municipalities, in cooperation with the media, will broadcast evacuation recommendations and other pertinent information.
Evacuation Recommendation, etc.

12 Volcanic Disasters
Section
2
Mechanism of Volcanic Eruptions

A volcanic eruption, like an earthquake, occurs as a result of tectonic plate and mantle activities of the earth. Volcanoes 0 are generally found near tectonic plate boundaries (along a submarine trench, 50km ridge, etc.); and at hotspots* in the interior of plates. For volcanoes in Japan, magma reaches the surface as rocks 100km from the upper mantle, molten by fluids from the subducted oceanic plate, rise 150km and collect in magma chambers. An eruption occurs when the volcanic crater opens and the gas pressure of the magma decreases, in turn producing gas bubbles and increasing the volume of the magma, which is forced to gush out. When the amount of gas bubbles is small, the magma gushes out as a lava ow.
'Spots on plates where hot mantle convects up from the Earth's core-mantle. Example: Hawaii
Volcanoes in Tokyo
There are 21 volcanoes in Tokyo, out of the 108 nationwide. All of them are located on the Islands; there are 8 volcanic islands which are inhabited. The most active among them are Oshima and Miyakejima. In the past 100 years, Oshima has had 3 eruptions, in 36- to 38-year intervals; and Miyakejima has had 4 eruptions, in 17- to 22- year intervals. The cinders, volcanic ash, lava ows, and volcanic gases have caused direct and indirect damage, often necessitating evacuation.
40
TMG's Measures Against Volcanic Disasters TMG's measures against volcanic disasters have been established, in accordance with the Tokyo Metropolitan Area Disaster Prevention Plan (for Volcanoes), based on recommendations from the Metropolitan Disaster Prevention Council Volcano Division, as well as past volcanic disaster experiences, to provide appropriate emergency measures for the outlying islands. Observation
Section
2
TMG has set up an observation system which include seismographs and inclinometers on each of the Izu Islands (except for Oshima) to monitor volcanic activities. Oshima is monitored by the national authorities through an extensive observation network. Data are shared by TMG, the Japan Meteorological Agency, the national authorities, and other research institutes.
System for the Izu Islands
Disaster Preparedness Training

TMG holds general disaster Preparedness Training biennially, in cooperation with the municipalities of the Islands. The Training include measures for volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, and tsunami.
2010: Niijima-mura Maritime Disaster Rescue Training
Volcanic
Warnings and Forecasts
The Metrological Agency announces a variety of information about the degree of volcanic activity and for active volcanoes and in particular it has set an Eruption Watch Level that shows information regarding evacuation actions, etc. For the volcanoes within metropolitan Tokyo, the Eruption Watch Level was set as shown below for Ito Oshima Island on December 1, 2007, and Miyake Island on March 31, 2008, and this is used when planning countermeasures. (As of January 10, 2012: Izu Oshima Island Level 1, Miyake Island Level 2) The specic range of restrictions, etc., for each level are prescribed in the regional disaster countermeasures plans of each town and village.
Izu Oshima Island and Miyake Island Volcano Watch Levels
Forecast Warning Eruption Forecast Crater Vicinity Warning Eruption Warning Applicable Range Inside crater, etc. Level (Keyword) 1 (Normal) Volcanic Activity State Volcanic activity is quiet. Volcanic ash eruptions can be seen inside the crater depending on the state of volcanic activity (Entering this area is life threatening). Eruptions that could aect the vicinity around the crater (entering this area is life threatening) are occurring or are forecast to occur. Eruptions that could have a large eect close to residential areas (entering this area is life threatening) are occurring or are forecast to occur. Eruptions that could have a large eect on residential areas are occurring or are forecast to occur (The possibility is increasing). Eruptions that could have a large eect on residential areas are occurring or are getting ready to occur.
*The level changes depending on the activity state of the volcano.
Actions to be Taken by Residents and Measures for People On and Around the Volcano Designate restricted areas depending on the state. Oshima: (As of August 2010, the area within 600m of the peak of Mt. Mihara is restricted due to rock slide danger. This does not include hiking and walking trails. Residents can live normally. The vicinity around the crater is restricted. Miyake: (As of August 2010, the area from the crater peak to perimeter formed by the Oyama road is restricted.) Residents can live normally. Depending on the state, preparations should be made to evacuate people requiring assistance in chase of a disaster. Going onto the mountain is dangerous so is restricted.
For residential areas requiring a warning, make evacuation preparations and people requiring assistance during a disaster need to be evacuated.
From crater to nearby crater vicinity Wide area around crater from crater to residential areas Residential areas are farther from the side of the crater
2 (Crater vicinity restricted) 3 (Mountain restricted) 4 (Prepare to Evacuate) 5 (Evacuate)
People must be evacuated from residential areas at risk.
Evacuation System
Quick and appropriate evacuation measures are crucial at times of volcanic eruptions, since cinders, lapilli, and lava flows can cause damage to wide areas and endanger lives. In case of an evacuation out of the island, it is important to secure boats through cooperation of relevant organizations and by requisition.

13 Large-Scale Accidents
Section
2
Large-Scale Accidents
According to the Basic Disaster Measures Act, in addition to natural disasters such as earthquakes, torrential rains, and oods, accidents such as large-scale res and explosions are also considered disasters.
Measures by TMG
Tokyo, as the capital, functions as the political, administrative, and economic center of Japan. There are 13 millionpeople living in Tokyo, and buildings and homes are built extremely close to each other. Due to these factors, there is a high chance of accidents quickly turning into largescale accidents, causing serious damage. In the Tokyo Metropolitan Area Disaster Prevention Plan (Large-scale Accident Edition), TMG species measures for 1) large-scale res, 2) accidents with hazardous materials such as oil and gas, which aect a large number of people, 3) transportation system accidents such as boat, plane, and train accidents, which may cause a large number of casualties.
Manual on Mutual Cooperation in the Event of a Large-scale Accident

After the JR Fukuchiyama Line derailment on April 25, the "Manual on Mutual Cooperation in the Event of a Large-scale Accident" was prepared in order to ensure smooth rescue and assistance eorts coordinated between various disaster prevention organizations, and to establish a common understanding of how the system for mutual cooperation should be organized. This manual is based on the Tokyo Municipal Government Disaster Prevention Plan (Large-scale Accident Edition). Purpose
To specify the role of each organization (police, fire department, self-defense force, medical association, Red Cross, municipalities, etc.) when responding to large-scale accidents, to achieve a prompt and appropriate response through eective cooperation.

14 Countermeasures for New Inuenza Viruses

Section
2
New Inuenza Virus

A new inuenza virus is a strain of u virus that had never been contracted among humans in the past. Novel inuenza (H1N1), which broke out in April 2009, was not very pathogenic. But bird-to-human infection of the highly pathogenic avian inuenza A (H5N1) virus has been conrmed since 2003, primarily in Southeast Asia, and there are concerns that the virus will mutate to a type that can spread through human-to-human transmission. Because humans do not have immunity to new inuenza viruses, it is feared that an ensuing pandemic could result in extensive harm to human lives and social and economic activities. [Major Symptoms]
Symptoms occurring in a person infected with an avian inuenza virus, believed to cause new inuenza viruses, include fever above 38 degrees Celsius, diarrhea, vomiting, stomach pains, chest pains, nosebleeds, and bleeding gums. If the patient s conditions worsen, there is a high probability that this will result in death. It is believed that similar symptoms will also appear in the event that the virus evolves to a type that can be transmitted from person to person.

Eorts by TMG
In preparation for the possible outbreak of highly pathogenic avian inuenza, in December 2005 TMG drew up the "Tokyo Action Plan for Measures against New Influenza Viruses," which sets down the basic countermeasures to be taken and the roles of the bureaus at each phase of an outbreak. In March 2007 the TMG also formulated the "Tokyo New Influenza Virus Response Manual," which determines matters including the government s internal system for response as well as specific procedures to be taken by hospitals and healthcare authorities. In addition, reecting the lessons learned from the outbreak of inuenza (H1N1) in 2009, the "Tokyo Metropolitan BCP (New Influenza Version)" was formulated in March 2010 to ensure the continuity of government services and operations even with a limited number of personnel. And in April 2011, the Tokyo Metropolitan BCP was updated to organize a government-wide support system based on the personnel plans formulated in the business continuity plans of each bureau. Along with having achieved a stockpile of antiviral drugs (Tamiu, Relenza) by scal 2010 to meet the needs of 60 percent of Tokyo s population, eorts are also underway to improve the system by, among others, having relevant bureaus conduct tabletop exercises with the municipal governments.

15 Terrorist Attacks
Section
2
Large-Scale Terrorist Attacks, etc.

Disasters of this type include attacks from terrorist groups (state of emergency response) and attacks from foreign armed forces (state of armed attack), which threaten a large number of lives. Terrorist attacks are especially difficult to predict due to the following factors:
1. They are by anti-state groups. 2. They are usually sudden and unforeseen. 3. It is difficult to tell them apart from accidents at the onset. 4. They are likely to occur at facilities with large crowds, such as stations and theaters. In the Civil Protection Plan prepared by TMG, the following types of emergencies are anticipated:
Citizens, Protection
The Citizens' Protection Law was put into eect in September 2004. In case of an attack
from terrorists or foreign armed forces, the national, prefectural and municipal authorities will cooperate in rescue, relief, and evacuation eorts for the protection of the citizens.
Tokyo Metropolitan Civil Protection Plan

In March 2006, the Tokyo Metropolitan Civil Protection Plan was established, based on the Citizens' Protection Law, for the rapid and precise implementation of measures to protect the civil population against armed attacks by overseas forces and major terrorist acts. The following points are taken into consideration. Application of the countermeasure system for disasters such as earthquakes Emphasis on measures against large-scale terrorist attacks, etc.
46
Measures Against Large-Scale Terrorist Attacks

In order to deal with a large-scale terrorist attack or a similar situation, TMG is constantly gathering crisis information, exercising vigilance, and working on strengthening initial response measures. Also, in the event of a terrorist attack, the national government, municipalities, police, fire and other pertinent agencies will cooperate and conduct citizen evacuation and relief eorts. Eorts During Ordinary Times TMG will monitor for any signs of terrorism, gather crisis information and remain on constant alert. TMG will work with businesses with crowded facilities to enhance emergency management systems, and to strengthen the network with them to share information. TMG will work with municipalities, businesses, and others in conducting role-play and on-site drills. Measures in Case of a Terrorist Attack On-site communication and coordination center will be set up to secure the coordination with other concerned organizations. TMG will make a cautionary request to lifeline companies and a request for train operation suspension to prevent the spread of damage.

Basic Knowledge
Earthquakes the Could Foreseeably Strike Metropolitan Tokyo

Tokyo in the past has been much damaged by large earthquakes such as the Great Kanto Earthquake. Further, the Great East Japan Earthquake demonstrated that there are some earthquakes that even though remote can cause chain-reaction damage.
(1) Geographic Characteristics of Tokyo

Directly beneath metropolitan Tokyo the Pacic plate from the east and the Philippine Sea plate from the south are pushing under the side of the continental plate. When the edge of a plate at this plate boundary springs up, it can cause an M8 Class submarine trench earthquake. In addition to the electricity that powers its urban functions, Tokyo also depends on other regions for many materials such as food and daily necessities, so even earthquakes outside of the metropolitan area can cause chain reaction damage, such as cutting o the power supply or disrupting distribution.

(2) Specic earthquake examples

1 Earthquake beneath Tokyo (Tokyo Bay North Area Earthquake (M7.3), Plate Boundary Tama Earthquake (M7.3), etc.)
An earthquake directly beneath Tokyo is an earthquake that occurs in a plate or plate boundary directly beneath Tokyo, and the average activity interval of earthquakes beneath South Kanto is 23.8 years. According to the 2006 metropolitan Tokyo damage estimate, the swaying from an earthquake centered in the Tokyo bay north area with an intensity of weak 6 that aects mainly the eastern part of the city proper, which is an area with a high concentration of wooden housing, could result in human suering that includes many deaths from res and many injuries from collapsed buildings and items falling over inside of rooms. Operation of most railroads will be temporarily interrupted and emergency trac routes will become jammed, so a great number of people will become stranded and many passengers and others will gather at terminal train stations causing confusion.
Section

Basic Knowledge
2 Submarine trench earthquake (Taisho Type Kanto Earthquake (M7.9), Genroku Type Kanto Earthquake (M8.2) , etc.)
The Kanto Earthquake is an example of a submarine trench earthquake that occurs along the Sagami Trough from Sagami Bay to the southeastern part of the Boso Peninsula where mainly the Philippine Sea plate sinks beneath the continental plate on which the Kanto Region sits and is due to the breaking (slipping) at the boundary between these two plates. According to the 1991 metropolitan Tokyo damage estimate, when an earthquake centered in the Sagami Trough occurs, the channel areas in some wards are expected to experience large earthquake acceleration, a tsunami with a maximum height of 1.2m is expected along the coast in Tokyo Bay, and soil liquefaction is expected to occur in areas on the eastern part of the Tokyo proper.
3 Earthquake occurring in an active fault (Tachikawa Fault Zone (M7.4), etc.)

The Tachikawa fault zone is an active fault zone that runs from Naguri Village, Iruma County in Saitama Prefecture through Ome City and Tachikawa City to Fuchu City in Metropolitan Tokyo. This fault causes large earthquakes in Sagami when it slips, but the government evaluation shows the average activity interval is 10,000 to 15,000 years. The national government has announced that the crustal movement caused by the Great East Japan Earthquake may possibly have increased the probability of an earthquake occurring in the Tachikawa fault zone, but the current occurrence probability is 0.5 to 2.0%, so the occurrence frequency is thought to be very much less compared to an earthquake directly beneath Tokyo.
4 Earthquakes that could (or have) cause chain-reaction damage (Tokai, Tonankai, Nankai area interlocked earthquakes, Tohoku Region Pacic Oshore Earthquake, Niigata Prefecture Chuetsu Oshore Earthquake, etc.)
The scopes of Tokai, Tonankai, or Nankai area interlocked earthquakes are currently being studied by the country s Nankai Trough Major Earthquake Model Investigative Commission, so a new damage estimate will be released based on the results of the study. In addition to the direct damage caused by long-period ground motion, etc., the Tohoku Region Pacic Oshore Earthquake caused chain-reaction damage such as cutting o the supply of electrical power, the eects of radioactive materials, and suspension of economic activities due to disruption of distribution and supply chains, etc.

Damage Estimation
Section

Basic Knowledge
According to the Headquarters for Earthquake Research Promotion, within the next 30 years, there is a 70 % chance of a large inland earthquake hitting the southern Kanto area, with an epicenter directly below the metropolitan area. To promote earthquake precautions, in May 2006 Tokyo released the Damage Estimation of an Earthquake Directly Below Tokyo, as summarized below. The damage estimate is currently being revised and new damage estimate will be announced in April 2012.
District-Based Vulnerability Assessment

In accordance with the Metropolitan Earthquake Disaster Prevention Ordinance (currently Metropolitan Earthquake Disaster Management Ordinance), TMG has conducted a series of district-based earthquake vulnerability assessments about every 5 years, since November 1975, when the first assessment result, which covered the wards, was published. In February 2008, the 6th assessment result was announced. In the assessment, 3 types of vulnerabilites are measured: structural vulnerability, fire vulnerability, and general vulnerability; and on a scale of 1 to 5, each of Tokyo's -chome community units is evaluated.

4 Countermeasures for a Tokai Area Earthquake

Countermeasures
Section
3
Basic Knowledge
Currently, a Tokai Earthquake is the only earthquake that has a possibility of being predicted. According to the LargeScale EarthquakeCountermeasures Special Act, when an earthquake is predicted, thePrime Minister declares an ocial warning, and special measures are taken.
Tokai Earthquake Notice Information (Issued when a study has been carried out regarding phenomena related to a Tokai Earthquake.)
When a Warning Declaration is Issued

In case of an earthquake, residents of the Tokyo Earthquake Prevention Measures Enhancement Area (Niijima-mura, Kozushima-mura, and Miyake-mura) are advised to move away from the shores and evacuate to higher ground as a precaution against tsunami. In other areas of Tokyo, there is no need for immediate evacuation, even after the issuance of a warning declaration. Pay attention to earthquake information updates and take safety precautions such as checking around your home for hazardous locations and securing furniture. Remember to stay calm; try not to be affected by rumors and erroneous information. A warning does not guarantee an earthquake; conversely, an earthquake may strike without a warning. 52
*Currently there is concern about a Tokai, Tonankai, and Nankai triple interlocked earthquake occurring.
