Abstract
Land development modifying the green area has a considerable ecological impact on the natural environment. In Japan, the environmental impact assessment committee of the municipality does judges large-scale development activities based on the environmental impact assessment act and thus environmental consideration is implemented. However, in small-scale development not covered by the act or municipal ordinance, it is difficult to prevent development without adopting adequate measures toward for offenses protecting the natural environment. Even if it is a project involved with the Environmental Impact Assessment Law, there are no penalty for offenses is not implementation suggestions by the committee guaranteed. In constructing road which separates a green spaces in Nagoya city, Inspector system is was introduced to implement environmental measures. As a result, inspectors were consistently involved from the implementation planning stage to the construction stage, and detailed environmental considerations were implemented. Introduction of this system is unique attempt in Japan. This research clarifies the roles of inspectors and analyses the effectiveness of the system. Moreover, it aims to introducing this inspector system at the time of developing green space.
