Environmental Conservation, Pollution, Land and Roads

When development of a certain size or more is carried out in the construction of roads and factories, an environmental assessment will be conducted based on the "Yokohama City Environmental Impact Assessment Ordinance" so that the project can be carried out in consideration of the environment. We will publish the results of predicting and evaluating the impact of the business on the environment and accept opinions.
