Contributing to Society with Extensive Experience and Proven Technology

Tokyo Water, in collaboration with the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Bureau of Waterworks, dispatched a total of 92 personnel to Wajima as its first full-scale disaster relief effort, including 58 emergency restoration workers, 12 emergency water supply workers, and 22 administrative staff. All dispatched personnel engaged in their activities with a strong sense of responsibility. In addition, we provided reconstruction support, including assistance to students affected by the disaster and disaster recovery efforts at schools.

 

Emergency Restoration Activities (January 29 to May 31)

We restored water supply facilities in Wajima, where 11,400 households across almost the entire city were affected by water outages. Our activities included planning the construction of supply pipelines to important facilities, supervising construction, and overseeing leak repairs, which contributed significantly to the early resolution of water outages.
