The prefectural disaster management council must formulate a prefectural area disaster management plan concerning an area of the relevant prefecture, review it every year, and revise it when found necessary, in accordance with the basic disaster management plan. In this case, the relevant prefectural area disaster management plan must not conflict with the disaster management operation plan.
A prefectural area disaster management plan is to provide for the following matters in general:
都道府県地域防災計画は、おおむね次に掲げる事項について定めるものとする。
general outline of affairs or operations relating to disaster management concerning an area of the relevant prefecture to be handled by a designated local administrative organ having jurisdiction over the area of the prefecture in whole or in part, the relevant prefecture, the municipalities within the area of the relevant prefecture, designated public corporations, designated local public corporations, and public organizations and other administrators of facilities important for disaster management within the area of the relevant prefecture (referred to as "jurisdictional designated local administrative organ, etc." in paragraph (4));
plans by category of operations concerning an area of the relevant prefecture: creation or improvement of disaster management facilities, investigation and research for disaster management, education, drills, and other disaster prevention, gathering and transmission of information, issuance and transmission of forecasts and alarms related to disaster, evacuation, fire-fighting, flood prevention, rescue, aid, sanitation, and other emergency disaster control measures, and recovery and reconstruction.
plans for development, stockpiling, procurement, distribution, transportation, and communication with reference to labor, facilities, equipment, goods, funds, etc., required for measures set forth in the preceding item, relating to disasters involving an area of the relevant prefecture.
A prefectural area disaster management plan may, in addition to what is set forth in each item of the preceding paragraph, provide for the basic direction of cooperation with public organizations or private groups that is necessary for the smooth implementation of emergency disaster control measures or recovery and reconstruction.
In deciding the prefectural area disaster management plan, the prefectural disaster management council gives due consideration to the need for the jurisdictional designated local administrative organ, etc. to receive support from others smoothly or support others when a disaster has occurred or is likely to occur.
都道府県防災会議は、都道府県地域防災計画を定めるに当たつては、災害が発生し、又は発生するおそれがある場合において管轄指定地方行政機関等が円滑に他の者の応援を受け、又は他の者を応援することができるよう配慮するものとする。
When the prefectural disaster management council has formulated or revised its prefectural area disaster management plan pursuant to the provisions of paragraph (1), the council must promptly report it to the Prime Minister and release to the public an outline of that plan or revision.
都道府県防災会議は、第一項の規定により都道府県地域防災計画を作成し、又は修正したときは、速やかにこれを内閣総理大臣に報告するとともに、その要旨を公表しなければならない。
When the Prime Minister has received a report on the prefectural area disaster management plan pursuant to the provisions of the preceding paragraph, the Prime Minister is to consult the National Disaster Management Council and may provide necessary advice or recommendations to the relevant prefectural disaster management council, when found necessary.
内閣総理大臣は、前項の規定により都道府県地域防災計画について報告を受けたときは、中央防災会議の意見を聴くものとし、必要があると認めるときは、当該都道府県防災会議に対し、必要な助言又は勧告をすることができる。
