PRTR (Note1) emission and transfer amount

(Note1) PRTR (Pollutant Release and Transfer Register): The PRTR system requires publication of the sources and emission volume of toxic chemical substances and the amounts of such substances removed from manufacturing plants. The system is provided for under the Pollutant Release and Transfer Register (PRTR) Law.
