Outline of Final Research Achievements

This study focus on the location decisions of private disposal sites for industrial waste. Using a unique dataset of industrial waste disposal sites from 1977 to 2012 in Japan and spatial econometric approach, we investigate the trend of location of the private disposal sites for industrial waste and the community characteristics that tend to locate the disposal sites. As a result, we found that the number of construction of disposal sites decreased after the Japanese waste disposal law revision implemented in 1997 and 1998. The empirical results show that the economic factors and the existence of other waste-related facilities have a positive effect on the location of private landfill sites. Interestingly, this relationship was fairly stable for 20 years despite a significant decline in the number of sites in operation. In addition, we found that the introduction of industrial waste tax and trade restrictions of waste tend to decrease the number of construction of disposal sites.
