President and Group CEO is responsible for water management strategy and performance. The Oji Group strives to reduce water intake by improving operation and water recycling and identifying regions with high water-related risks. We also incorporate water intake and intensity into our annual plans and carry out regular management. The Sustainability Promotion Committee chaired by the President and CEO and includes Oji Holdings directors and all company presidents as members, is responsible for formulating countermeasure policies and action plans, monitoring progress, and evaluating the achievement of these performance measures. We will continue to promote Group-wide initiatives for the effective utilization of water resources and water intake reduction. We also communicate to our suppliers our ideas on water resource management as outlined in the Oji Group Sustainability Action Guidelines　for Supply Chains, and promote reductions in water consumption throughout the entire supplier chain.
