The infrastructures in Japan that delivers drinking water to homes and processes the drinking water are superannuated in many places. However, local water supply agents do not have enough money to maintain and repair these water facilities and water treatment facilities because revenues have been dropping in recent years due to loss of water users.…

After the first few weeks of clinic, I feel very lucky for the experiences that I’ve had so far. I came to clinic without any working experience in environmental law. Instead, I brought a strong interest that has slowly been building since taking urban planning and environmental classes in college and then finding the legal issues presented in property and water law even more so.

The water’s quality didn’t approve over the years to follow. From studies…

The inspection uses high-risk samples to evaluate an auditing firm instead of random samples. There are some criticisms about this risk-based approach.
