Japan has laws in place that are intended to reduce health risks from environmental pollution, including air pollution. On the basis of the "polluters pay" principle, these laws are designed to support pollution victims. In Miyazaki Prefecture, people were chronically exposed to arsenic in Takachiho Town as a result of the operation of Toroku Mine. As a result of this pollution, the Miyazaki Prefectural Government has provided annual health checkups for residents since 1973. The examination consists of the following: blood test, urine test, body measurement, CT scan, respiratory test, hearing test, taste test, olfactory test, eye exam, neurological exam, internal exam, and skin exam. Test results are entered into the electronic database for chronic arsenic poisoning. In order to maintain public awareness of the danger of environmental pollution, we are engaging in a project to inform the public of our history of pollution and environmental restoration efforts. We also hope to help other Asian countries that are suffering from arsenic contamination of groundwater by providing support for trainees that are participating in JICA projects.
