| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Japan, at present, has a no water trade system. In theory, this system is based on transferable water rights without legal obstacles. However, in Japan, the transferring of water rights is restrained with difficulty, which is defined as follows. A water right is a legal entitlement authorizing water to be used exclusively and continuously for a specified purpose. This means that the right is restricted to transfer for a specific purpose. If a water right could be re-defined as an entitlement to use only a specified volume of water for a non-purpose, then transfer would be possible with no legal barriers. My assessment is to consider a method making water rights transferable with the exclusion of specific purpose from the definition of water rights.
