Abstract
This paper focuses on hazardous disaster waste generated by uncertain natural disaster risks, including the Great East Japan Earthquake and the Noto Peninsula Earthquake, severe flooding, and typhoons. In particular, the risks of such natural disasters vary from region to region. The types of objects that could potentially become hazardous disaster waste also vary in the nature of the damage and the degree of adverse social impact. Therefore, this paper examines approaches to the complex risks surrounding hazardous disaster waste generated by uncertain natural disasters. Specifically, this paper examines and considers the importance of forming and role of risk communities in peacetime in order to address these complex risks, as well as the necessity of collaboration between local government BCP (Business Continuity Plans) and the PRTR (Pollutant Release and Transfer Register) system, and offers new policy implications.
