We are pleased to announce that on September 19, the Tokyo Metropolitan Government submitted a draft environmental impact assessment report to the Governor of Tokyo (Environment Bureau) for the construction project of the Kunitachi Urban Planning Road No. 3-3-15 Nakashinden -Tachikawa Line (between Yaho, Kunitachi City and Fujimidai 4-chome), in accordance with the Tokyo Metropolitan Environmental Impact Assessment Ordinance.
The draft environmental impact assessment report selected seven items for the environmental impact assessment: air pollution, noise and vibration, water pollution, living organisms and ecosystems, landscape, places for nature-related activities, and waste, and predicted and evaluated the environmental impact of the project.
