LEBAK - The Regional Disaster Management Agency (BPBD) of Lebak Regency, Banten Province appealed to coastal communities to be aware of the eruption of Mount Anak Krakatau (GAK) which has the potential to cause a tsunami.
"Even though the southern coast of Lebak is so far from the coast of the Pandeglang area, residents are still vigilant," said Head of the Lebak BPBD Emergency and Logistics Section, Agus Reza Faisal, in Lebak, Wednesday.
The warning was issued after the Meteorology, Climatology and Geophysics Agency (BMKG) released the potential for a tsunami or high waves due to volcanic activity, the eruption of Mount Anak Krakatau.
In addition, the activity of Mount Anak Krakatau was also raised to Alert Level II status from previously Alert Level III by the Center for Volcanology for Geological Hazard Mitigation (PVMBG) and the Geological Agency of Energy and Mineral Resources 24 April 2022.
Thus, the people of the southern coast of Lebak from Binuangeun Beach to Bayah must be aware of the potential for a tsunami.
"We have to be prepared because the southern coast of Lebak is also in the red zone with the potential for a tsunami," he emphasized.
According to him, the Lebak BPBD continues to coordinate with BMKG and PVMBG to obtain information related to the seismic activity of Mount Anak Krakatau.
The people of the southern coast of Lebak are also advised to remain calm in the face of the seismic eruption of Mount Anak Krakatau in the waters of the Sunda Strait, South Lampung, Lampung.
"We ask residents not to easily accept hoax news," he added.
He said the warning warning of potential tsunamis due to the eruption of Mount Anak Krakatau also occurred in 2018, so people must be vigilant for fear of something similar happening again.
Therefore, the people of the southern coast of Lebak are advised to take mitigation from now on.
In addition, the Lebak BPBD has built evacuation locations and gathering points that are safe from the tsunami disaster.
"We ask coastal residents to be vigilant to reduce the risk of disaster," he also said.
