Situation of restoration and development of social infrastructure
Reconstruction work has begun for 97% of public works facilities, and 83% have already been
completed. Currently the prefecture is focused on the tsunami affected area, and is aiming tocomplete reconstruction as soon as possible, while developing and strengthening roads and otherinfrastructure, and ensuring that recovery efforts proceed in a safe and secure manner.
◆Progress by construction site

New roads for restoration are under construction（As of June 30, 2016）

The prefecture is currently installing a road network inorder to provide strong support for the revitalization of‘areas to which evacuation orders are ready to be lifted’.
The network is aimed to be completed by 2018-2023,
and will include 8 main routes covering the coastal
region, in the areas surrounded by express and national
highways.

Industrial promotion and creation of employment
After the disaster the number of offices has shown a declining trend. According to the industrial
production index which indicates the production situation for the manufacturing industry, levels have notyet recovered to pre-disaster conditions. There have also been employment mismatches occurring,depending on the type of occupation.
For the sustainable development of Fukushima industries, the prefecture will provide proactive support forthe continuation and resumption of small and medium sized companies, which are the core of the regional
economy. In addition, there are also efforts in place to secure employment opportunities, including
attracting business investment within the prefecture.

5 years on from the Great East Japan Earthquake and the nuclear accident, and situations onrevitalization of the prefecture are changing with rearrangement of evacuation areas and lifting of
evacuation order to some municipalities. in line with such change, the prefecture formulated

monitoring tests at the Agricultural Technology Center, peach
farmers and the renewable energy institute.

2016 July 25, we hosted "challenge Fukushima Forum in
Hokkaido”, which was held at Sapporo City.
To target the distribution industry officials, we introduced our
products, such as peaches, summer vegetables and Japanesesake(rice wine) and also our efforts for restoration.
