Facilities to cope with nature

 

 

 

(1) Toneoseki-dam 

 

 Toneoseki-dam is a facility that takes water from Tonegawa river for drinking city water in Tokyo and send water to Arakawa river. There are three water channels for fishes and about 4 thousand salmons go through these channels to find their egg-laying site and they will finish their lives of about four years. There, not only salmon in autumn, but also in early summer, we can see Japanese river trout (Ayu).
