On the 16th, the Tamamura Town Council submitted a proposal to Mayor Ishikawa recommending Tamamura as a candidate site for the Disaster Prevention Agency, which the government is aiming to establish. The recommendation cites Tamamura as a favorable location due to its low tsunami risk, its proximity to National Route 354 as a main road, and its proximity to the Takasaki-Tamamura Smart Interchange on the Kan'etsu Expressway, hospitals, and heliports. Regarding the Disaster Prevention Agency, Governor Ichita Yamamoto met with the Minister of Economic Revitalization in Tokyo in July, where he promoted Gunma Prefecture's strengths and proposed its ideal role as a regional hub.
