Start of regional processing and acceptance of disaster waste generated by the 2024 Noto Peninsula earthquake
In the areas affected by the 2024 Noto Peninsula Earthquake, a large amount of disaster waste has been generated due to the demolition and removal of damaged houses and other structures.

Recently, Tokyo has begun accepting this waste at its waste disposal plants, based on a request from the Ministry of the Environment and Ishikawa Prefecture.
