The shrine prayer place at the summit of Mt. Ontake was built as an evacuation facility after an eruption five years ago, but the bereaved family is long because the lock is closed except for a summer period and it does not function sufficiently I found that next week, I will make a request to the local government and the shrine to consider how to keep the key unlocked.

At Mt. Ontake, where 63 people were killed or lost during the eruption of September 27, 2014, the shrine prayer lock at the summit of Kiso-cho, Nagano Prefecture was closed at that time, I broke the window and evacuated.

After that, the place of prayer was built as an evacuation facility with the assistance of the town, but according to the Mitake Shrine in Kiso-cho, which it manages, this means that it was closed on the 4th of this month.

In the place of prayer, people are stationed from July 10 to September 3 every year before the eruption, but other than that there are no people and the property is kept, so the key is closed.

There is no legal obligation to open the lock for the bereaved family, but it is said that it will not function sufficiently as an evacuation facility in the event of an eruption. It turns out that you want to consider how to keep the key unlocked.

The meeting is scheduled to visit Kiso-cho on the 18th of this month and make a request, saying, "I want you to discuss how to make it work."
