Coasts of Shikoku are surrounded by Seto Inland Sea, Pacific
Ocean,, Kii Channel and Bungo
g Channel,, and all of the four
prefectures are on the seafront. These features are big merits for
Shikoku playing pivotal roles in maritime physical distribution.
The Seto Inland Sea side with many islands, above all, and theria coasts in the west part of Shikoku are blessed with gentle sea
surface, where good natural ports are formulated. Shikoku as awhole has as many as 149 ports, accounting for a high ratio of
14.9% of the whole country.

Shikoku with rich nature is blessed with sightseeing resources,
and surrounded by Seto Inland Sea with many islands, Pacific
Ocean feeding corals, and natural coastal lines full of marine lives
such as whale and turtle
turtle, and of the beauty of white sand andblue pine.
The history and culture of Shikoku have developed together withthe sea. The development of port towns in Shikoku, as seen
today, has been supported by Seto Inland Sea which has thrived
from early days as strategic spot in maritime transportation, andthe coasts of Pacific Ocean known as a site of whale catchingleading the country till Meiji Era.

Disasters
Shikoku faces natural severity
occasionally. Damages were oftencaused by high tide in typhoon on
the coasts of Seto Inland Sea, andby tsunami in earthquake in addition
to high tide on the coasts of PacificO
Ocean.
Tonankai/Nankai earthquakes arefeared to occur in near future. So,
we must be well prepared for any
large-scale natural disasters bylearning lessons in our experiences ▲Wind and waves exceeding anyof our imagination will attack theof suffering damages in the past.

Social Condition in Shikoku■Social Condition in Shikoku
Occupying 5% of the area of Japan, Shikoku has
no government decreed city. Population ratio is as
low as 3.1%, and the social economic index isalso around 3% of the nation.
Though not large as compared with the whole
nation, the economic force of Shikoku of four
prefectures facing sea in all sides has big merits
in the aspect of maritime physical distribution. The
amount of handled cargos at ports accounts for ahigh ratio of 6.9% nationally, and this means thatports play an important role in the economy of
Shikoku.

Situations around Ports in Shikoku■ Features of Industries● Distribution of main industries in the coastal areas in
ShikokuIndustries on the coastal areas, such as
pulp/paper manufacturing and petroleum productmanufacturing,g have developed
p in Shikoku, andthe ratios of the work categories of basic material
type and regional resources type are higher thannational averages in the compositions of
manufactured item delivery amounts per work
category.
In these industries on the coastal areas, it isnecessary to transport by sea the raw materials
and products, and so, industries have developedon the coastal areas around important ports
ports.
If the industries in the coastal areas of Shikoku
are to increase international competitiveness,
industrial costs should be suppressed by efficienttransportation, and the port functions supporting
physical distribution should be consolidated.

●Changes and growth rates of trade amounts in Shikoku■ Trade Amounts in Shikoku
Following the financial crisis started by the socalled “Lehman Shock” around the autumn of
2008, the trade amounts in Shikoku, similar to thewhole nation, decreased in 2009.
Trade amounts in Shikoku up to the year 2008,
on the other hand, are seen to have increased
continuously. These trends are seen nationwide,
but the growth rates of trade amounts in Shikoku
exceed national averages
averages.
In the trade amounts, not only the amount ofexport but also the amount of import increased
greatly, which makes Shikoku a very charmingsite for the companies to produce goods forforeign markets, and as a place of consumption.

50% of the companies have advanced to China
and 80% of the companies have advanced to the
Asian regions, which means the connections with
East Asian Region have been strengthened.
Shikoku shows such trends more remarkably thannational average.
The economy of East Asian Region developing

Typhoon No. 16 which hit the areas around Shikoku on Aug.30, 2004. In Shikoku, tidal levels
exceeding the max level by tens of centimeter were recorded at coastal areas in Kagawa and Ehime
Prefectures, and the central part of Takamatsu City, above all, was flooded for a long time. 16,000
houses were flooded, and the civil life was badly affected.

Maintenance of Ports[situations around physical distribution]■ Forms of Physical Distribution Cargos in Shikoku
Form of cargos transported by sea can beclassified into two types. One is the container
cargo transported by using a holder called
Container. The other is a form called Bulk
Cargo directly loaded on ship, andtransported, such as liquids and raw wood.
Bulk cargo accounts for the most part offoreign trade cargos in Shikoku, and its
handling tends to increase recently.

Maintenance of Ports [maintenance of terminals]
Maintenance of international physical distribution terminals
Industry of basic material type developed along the coasts of Shikoku, and the required materials and fuels
are mainly imported as bulk cargos (loaded in bulk). As ships become bigger recently, shortage ofappropriate piers chronically causes demurrage, making it inevitable to switch long-distance transportation toland transportation. Such situations not only make physical distribution inefficient but also cause big problems
in the costs. In the event of demurrage, for example, loss of 3 million yen is said to be caused per ship every
day if it is forced to wait for cargo handling off the coast.
In order to realize efficient international physical distribution activities, efforts are continued to construct sites
of international physical distribution terminals appropriate for large ships.
● Demurrage eliminated at

■ Construction of international physical distribution/complex andthrough transportation terminals
In order to promote the use of domestic
sea transportation of high energy efficiency

transportation from truck transportation byland. Also in order to promote efficientphysical distribution utilizing the smoothness

Sea is a closed sea with water hard to be mixed up
with outer sea water. Sludge accumulated on thebottom of sea contributes to deteriorate the ocean
environment. Sea bottom should be covered with sandof good quality using dredged*1 earth and sand to

Port & Airport Department■ Formulation of circulation-type society by recycle ports*1
If limited resources are to be utilized effectively byrecycling, it is necessary to establish a “Vein physicaldistribution system” to transport recycled resources in
addition to an “Artery physical distribution system” totransport resources and products.
In Japan, in the meantime, 22 ports are designatedas the general vein physical distribution site ports(recycle ports). In Shikoku, Mishimakawanoe Port
(Shikokuchuo City) thriving by paper manufacturing
was so designated, and recycle projects arepromoted to realize a circulation-type society.
*1. This means a port acting as a site of vein physical distribution
network for recycling facilities sited in wide area
area. The port isdesignated as a general vein physical distribution site port (recycleport) by the central government at the application by the port
administrator, for the purpose of realizing a circulation-type society.

yp sea waters environment maintenance work method
Structures at port such as pier and embankment generally come down to deep water vertically. Shellfishes
living on the vertical surface, their wastes and dead bodies are accumulated on the sea bottom, and oxygen
is consumed when these things are decomposed by microbes. This makes it hard for living things to live
near sea bottom, and such a tendency is intensified especially at the depth of port where sea water flows
slowly. At deep water, on the other hand, oxygen is produced by photosynthesis of phytoplankton, making
the area an environment easier for living things to live in.
In this work method, shelf-like spaces are created at shallow water, and stones are placed on the bottom
surface to promote living things to live in a porous environment. This work method is highly expected as at h ltechnology

Port & Airport Department■ Seto Inland/Seaway Network Promotion Committee (Umi Net)The region of Seto Inland Sea has thrived from early days as
a place of marine transportation, and formulated unique society,and economic and cultural zones historicallyhistorically.
“Umi Net” committee is an organization to practice the creationof local areas in Seto Inland Sea as a block, where the gravity ofhistory and the natural blessings are fully reflected. Establishedin May 1991, now consisted of 107 cities, towns and villages
along the coasts of Seto Inland Sea, 9 regional organs in
Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism (Kinki,
Chugoku, Shikoku, Kyushu Regional Development Bureaus andTransport Bureaus, Kobe District Transport Bureau), “Umi Net”
committee carries out the intercommunication/coordination
activities for the areas of Seto Inland Sea.
Shikoku Regional Development Bureau carries out thecommittee’s activities and the activities to enhance the merits ofSeto Inland Region by utilizing the cruises and local
intercommunication events.

Coast cleaning activity named “Refresh Seto Inland
Region” by volunteers is the mainly project by “Umi Net.”
It is appealed that beautiful Seto Inland Sea should beprotected through such “activities easy for everyone tojoin.”For 18 years from 1993 through 2010, approx 16,200
tons of garbage was recovered under the cooperation by
volunteers including 1.63 million local residents in total
from all coastal areas of Seto Inland Sea.

In Japan, “International Ship/Port Security Law” was instituted, and the security measures such as monitoring inand out of the port facilities are taken by installing limited areas to prevent suspected terrorist attacks oninternational port facilities.
Shikoku Regional Development Bureau reviews and approves the port facility security plan prepared by theadministrator of international port facilities, and tries to maintain and improve the reliability and stability ofinternational marine transportationpsuch as byy conducting

Measures for deserted boats■ Measures for deserted boats
More pleasure boats*1 are owned per
population in Shikoku, and mooring
facilities are in short, leaving a number ofdeserted boats and sunk/discarded ships.
At the result, safe seafaring is obstructed,
and the sceneries are badly affected bythem. Mooring facilities are maintained,
and deserted and sunk/discarded ships
are disposed to solve these problems.
*1. General name for boats such as yacht andmotorboat used in sports and recreation.
*2. Simple mooring facility for small pleasure boats
utilizing the existing still waters and facilities as an
emergency measure against deserted boats.
