It has been seven days and one week since the landslide disaster that killed two people in Tsuruoka City, Yamagata Prefecture on the 31st of last month.

In the landslide disaster that occurred on the 31st of last month in Nishime, Tsuruoka City, Yamagata Prefecture, two people died and 17 buildings, including houses and vacant houses, collapsed.



An emergency on-site survey conducted by experts and others conducted on the 5th pointed out that multiple cracks were found on the slopes and the risk of another disaster occurring, so the prefecture is promoting measures to ensure the safety of the site. I'm here.



On the 7th, standing trees were cut down in preparation for putting up a blue sheet to prevent rainwater and thaw water from entering the earth and sand.



According to the prefecture, the blue sheet will be installed in a range of about 30 meters in height and about 100 meters in width, and they want to finish it in about 10 days.
