Q.What is the purpose of monitoring? How will you respond to the results of monitoring?

A.

Although monitoring is conducted by the project sponsors themselves, NEXI considers monitoring to be important in assessing whether planned measures have been steadily implemented, whether these measures are adequate, and whether any unforeseen changes in external conditions have caused adverse impacts on the environment. As for Category A or B projects, NEXI also confirms the monitoring results of the project sponsors through the Applicants with regard to important issues during the certain period. If any problems are found as a result of monitoring, NEXI will encourage the project sponsor, via the Applicant, to take appropriate action.
