Notification based on the Construction Recycling Law is required. Please submit registration form promptly from the date it becomes eligible.
[Supplement]

• For the “process schedule” attached to registration form in the above case, please attach a series of process schedules that include the parts that have already been started. In addition, please specify the date on which the design was subject to the Construction Recycling Law due to the design change in the process schedule.
• In the case above, enter the date that was subject to the Construction Recycling Law due to the design change in the column “Scheduled construction start date” described in registration form.

Even if the ordering party and the prime contractor are in the same construction work and a series of construction work is divided, it is necessary to judge whether it is subject to notification on a series of overall scales for each type of construction there is.
If the main contractor is different for each construction contract, it will be determined whether the contract is subject to notification for each scale of the contracted construction.
[Example of construction with a series of characteristics]

• Demolition of multiple adjacent buildings
• New construction of multiple buildings in a series of plots
• Pavement and pipe work performed on the same route
• Construction work in a series of development areas, retaining wall construction, etc.

The presence or absence of specified construction material waste is not related to the determination of the necessity of notification. Even if specific construction material waste is not discharged, a notification based on the Construction Recycling Law may be required.
About whether it corresponds to construction work that needs report, we can confirm using "evaluation flow targeted for report of Construction Recycling Law and supplementary materials" (PDF: 461KB).

The presence or absence of real estate registration of a building is not related to the judgment of the necessity of notification. When performing construction work that exceeds the target scale even if it is an unregistered property for the building, a notification based on the Construction Recycling Law is required.

When referring to the floor area in the registry, make sure that the building drawings attached to the registry are not different from the current shape. Please note that the details of the registration may not be updated for extensions after registration.

Since there is no provision to exempt the notification under the Construction Recycling Law, a notification based on the same law is required, but it may be judged that it is unavoidable to start construction in a situation where there is no notification for those that need urgent response There is. However, if you carry out emergency work, please contact the Administration Section (045-671-3446), the Resources and Waste Recycling Bureau Division Business Waste Management Section, which is the contact point forregistration formregistration form.

The necessity of notification regarding the demolition work of buildings in the fire is determined as follows.
1 When all or part of the frame excluding the foundation of the building remains burning
(1)When the roof or floor remains burning
If the roof or floor other than the first floor remains burning, if the total floor area of the roof or the part where the floor is covered is 80 m2 or more, it is necessary to submit the registration form under the Construction Recycling Law. In addition, if the area is less than 80m2, please submit the demolition work registration form based on the "Guidelines for Demolition of Yokohama City Buildings". (Please refer to Q21 as there are differences in handling of the outline from the Construction Recycling Law.)
(２) When the roof and floor are burnt down and only other frames (pillars, walls, etc.) remain burning.
Since the floor area cannot be calculated, it is not necessary to submit a report based on the Construction Recycling Law and the above outline as demolition work of buildings. However, basically, concrete foundations that remain burning are treated as structures other than buildings, and if the contracted amount for demolition work is 5 million yen or more, the type of construction must be submitted by the registration form in accordance with the Construction Recycling Law.
2. When all of the frame except the foundation of the building is burned down
Basically, if the remaining concrete foundation is treated as a non-building work, and the contract amount for the demolition work is 5 million yen or more, the type of construction is required to be submitted by the registration form under the Construction Recycling Law as applicable to "demolition work pertaining to things other than buildings or new construction work."

In accordance with the Construction Recycling Law, the seal column of the ordering party or independent builder of the registration form (Form No. 1) and the registration form (Form No. 2) was abolished due to the revision of ministerial ordinances, eliminating the need for seal.
In addition, seal is not required for dismantling registration form and registration form, which is based on the guidelines for dismantling construction of Yokohama buildings (demolition of buildings less than 80 m2).

Regarding the power of attorney attached to the registration form or registration form under the Construction Recycling Law submitted to Yokohama City, the proxy seal is not required. (In addition, there is no need for the delegate to sign their own instead of seal.)
Regarding the handling of the power of attorney regarding seal, the handling differs depending on the administrative agency, so if you submit it to an administrative agency other than Yokohama City, please contact the administrative agency to which you submit it.
In addition, regarding the handling of power of attorney, the same applies to demolition work registration form, etc., based on the guidelines pertaining to demolition work of Yokohama buildings (demolition work of buildings less than 80 m2).

It is the day when dismantling work, new construction work, etc. are actually started on site, and temporary work for the work is also included in the start of construction work. However, preparation work such as weeding and material import at the site is not included.

You can submit multiple types of construction at one registration form, so there is no need to create a registration form for each type of construction. However, please note that if the combination of the ordering party and the main contractor differs depending on the type of construction, registration form will be required for each type of construction.

For omissions and incorrect entries, please add and correct them when submitting at the counter.
Depending on the nature of the deficiencies, it may be judged that the legal obligations have not been fulfilled, so please make sure that you do not have any omissions and forget to attach required documents before submitting.

Under the Construction Recycling Law, registration form is obliged to submit a report to the client or independent contractor.
The notification can be delegated to an agent, but please note that if you perform the act as a business, the agent will need a certain qualification (administrative scrivener, architect).

There are no ordinances that stipulate methods such as prior dissemination of demolition work subject to the Construction Recycling Law. However, in order to prevent troubles around the construction site, we ask that you explain the construction details, construction period, construction time, etc. before constructing.
