BANTEN - The extreme weather that occurred in Lebak and several other areas still has the potential to cause disasters. Anticipating this, the Lebak Regency Regional Disaster Management Agency (BPBD), Banten mapped out disaster-prone areas during Lebaran 2025.
"The mapping is to anticipate disasters so that people can celebrate Eid safely," said Lebak Regency BPBD Chief Executive Febby Rizky Pratama in Lebak, quoting ANTARA on Sunday, March 30.
The Lebak Regency area enters a prone area for natural disasters if the extreme weather is marked by heavy rain accompanied by strong winds and lightning.
The extreme weather can cause floods, flash floods, landslides and ground movement, due to the nature of the mountains, hills and river flows.
BPBD Lebak conducted a mapping of the area prone to natural disasters in order to provide security and comfort during Eid.
