３０万戸で停電続く＝全面復旧１３日以降に－断水３万戸・千葉

　台風１５号の被害を受けた千葉県では、１２日も停電が続いた。東京電力によると、午後６時時点で同県南部を中心に約３０万戸が停電しており、全面復旧は１３日以降となる見通し。
　県によると、停電でポンプが動かないなどの原因で断水も続き、午後４時時点で約３万戸。約８４０人が避難所で生活を送っており、２００超の小中高校、幼稚園などが休校・休園となった。
　停電となった地域の自治体では、役所でスマートフォンの充電サービスなどを実施したほか、給水車も展開し、水を求める住民が朝から列を作った。
　長引く停電に、自治体からは批判も出ている。千葉市の熊谷俊人市長は１２日、「当初から全国を挙げた支援体制を敷いてほしかった。楽観的な見通しを発表するのは被災者のためにならない」と東電に注文を付けた。（2019/09/12-19:49）

Power and water outages in Chiba Prefecture, east of Tokyo, continued Thursday, after a powerful typhoon struck the region earlier this week.
   Electricity will likely be fully restored on Friday or later, Tokyo Electric Power Company Holdings Inc. said. About 300,000 households, mainly in the southern part of the prefecture, were still out of electricity as of 6 p.m. Thursday (9 a.m., GMT), according to TEPCO.
   Some 30,000 households had no running water as of 4 p.m., partly because water pumps were not working due to the power outage, which started on Monday, the Chiba prefectural government said.
   The number of people staying at evacuation centers came to some 840, according to the local government. On the day, a total of over 200 schools and kindergartens were closed.
   In affected areas, people were allowed to charge their smartphones at municipal government offices, and water trucks were deployed.
