CHIBA – Municipal officials are still struggling to cope with shattered roofs and other debris two weeks after Typhoon Faxai roared through Chiba Prefecture.
In the prefecture, 22 municipal governments have set up temporary disposal sites at a total of 33 locations, but many people have left typhoon debris elsewhere, officials said.
Piles of debris, including trash, were seen on the side of the road in the Iwaifukuro district in the town of Kyonan, one of several locations that saw heavy damage from the typhoon that slammed into the prefecture on Sept. 9.
