Compliance with Environmental Laws and Regulations

DOCOMO complies with environmental laws and regulations, including the Act on the Rational Use of Energy (Energy Conservation Act), Air Pollution Control Act, Waste Management and Public Cleansing Act, the Tokyo Metropolitan Government's mandatory reduction scheme, and other municipal ordinances related to global warming, and implements interdepartmental energy-efficiency measures throughout the country.

We are furthering proper waste management based on regulations such as the Waste Management and Public Cleansing Act.
DOCOMO has voluntarily established the PCB Item Management Procedure Manual in accordance with the Act on Special Measures concerning Promotion of Proper Treatment of PCB Wastes to guide its management of PCB. The manual stipulates items subject to storage and management, storage and management methods, storage locations, disposal methods, and emergency response procedures.
Under the PCB Special Measures Act, companies that store PCB waste must appropriately dispose of it or contract for its disposal by July 2016. At present, the NTT Group, including DOCOMO, is reviewing disposal methods.
