Miyagi Marumori-machi disaster waste Fukushima Soma City to accept partly November 4 19:13
It was found that the neighboring Soma City, Fukushima Prefecture, has decided to accept some of the waste disposal that is a major issue in Marumori Town, Miyagi Prefecture, which was severely damaged by Typhoon No. 19. According to Miyagi Prefecture, this is the first time that municipalities outside the prefecture will accept disaster waste from Typhoon No. 19.
Miyagi Prefecture marumori the most number of houses were all partially destroyed by Typhoon No. 19 in the prefecture, disaster waste which came out in large quantities has been followed by a state that does not stand the prospect of also processing right now more than three weeks.
Among them, “wood scraps” such as fallen trees that have been swept away from the mountains have become an urgent issue, as they accumulate in rice fields and fields and block roads to prevent the town from recovering.
In response to this situation, it was found through interviews with the town that Soma City, Fukushima Prefecture, decided to accept only wood chips from Marumori Town. The town collects wood scraps in a special temporary storage area in the Ouchi district and then transports them to Soma City.
According to Miyagi Prefecture, this is the first time that a municipality outside the prefecture accepts the disaster waste produced by Typhoon No. 19, and it is expected that it will help the reconstruction of the disaster-stricken area through the disposal of wood waste.
"Thank you for taking the process one step further."
Mr. Toshio Yamaki (65), who is engaged in farming in the Marumori area of Marumori-machi, Miyagi Prefecture, grew approximately 20 kinds of vegetables in a 27-A-Rule field and shipped them to a local direct sales office.
Due to the impact of Typhoon No. 19, the farm road leading to Maki's field has now been over three weeks, and driftwood that is 50 cm thick and 3 meters long is blocking the road. There were countless trees that flowed from the upstream into the field, and we had to give up shipments of vegetables such as Chinese cabbage, radishes, and long potatoes that had been ready for shipment.
Mr. Yamaki wants to resume farming as soon as possible, but in the first place, fallen trees get in the way and can't get close to the field by car.
Mr. Yamaki said, “Vegetable vegetables made so far will be useless, and it will be really sad when you see this scenery. "
On top of that, Mr. Yamaki said about accepting wood scraps in Soma City, “There is still a problem that wood scraps can not be carried out by one person, but it is really appreciated that Soma City will extend the support process one step further. "
