Concern Over Low Water Levels at Fukuoka’s Dams

Even though the rainy season began on the 11th in northern and southern Kyushu, concerns about a water shortage in parts of Fukuoka Prefecture are being raised. The storage rate of the Aburaki Dam, which serves as Kanda Town’s source of water, has led to reduced pressure and the amount of water sent to homes and other facilities. Due to the lack of rainfall this year, the dam’s water storage rate dropped to 15.2% at midnight on June 13. Authorities are calling the public in the area to conserve the use of water. Source: RKB
