Environmental Conservation
Environmental Assess
When development of a certain size or more is carried out in the construction of roads and factories, an environmental assessment will be carried out based on the "Yokohama Environmental Impact Assessment Ordinance" so that the project can be carried out in consideration of the environment. We announce the results of forecasting and evaluating the impact of the business on the environment, and accept opinions. For more information, please see the Environmental Planning Bureau Environmental Assessment page.
