Sakashita Dam

大熊町, Italy

Sakashita Dam (坂下ダム, Sakashita-damu) is a dam located in Ōkuma, Fukushima Prefecture, Japan. It was constructed by Hazama Corporation. The dam was completed in 1973. The catchment area for the dam is 12.5km2 There are about 230 people per square kilometer around Sakashita Dam which is quite densely

populated, however, the area around the dam is mostly covered in mixed forest. Collectors cards for the dam are available at the Sakashita Dam Management Office, and Okuma Town Hall main building. In the aftermath of the Fukushima nuclear disaster, when the Ōkuma township, in which the dam is located, was under a mandatory evacuation order, a group of elderly city employees were based at the Sakashita Dam management office, and took care of the area, including pruning and looking after the cherry trees surrounding the dam.
