Springtime water discharge on a large scale in three Dams in Minakami for maintenance 16 April, 2018

Event of discharging water in Fujiwara Dam for the 60th anniversary of its construction! And is to be done in the three dams.
Water is released in three dams, Fujiwara Dam, Yagisawa Dam, and Naramata Dam in Okutone area of Minakami once a year before entering the flood period, which is to be done for maintenance to see if the discharge facility operates safely.
The Water Source Area Vision Executive Committee in Minakami, and Minakami i Chamber of Commerce, Minakami Tourism Association, Tonegawa Dam Control Head Office, Numata General management Office, etc will hold this dynamic and rarely seen event so that many more people can see and feel it at first hand.
