Project of Asahigaoka Flow Trail
To all to whom these presents shall come,
We thank all of you for your understanding and support on a daily basis, towards our project operations initiated by us. We feel dreadfully sorry for the recent concerns over our project of Asahigaoka Flow Trail.
Regarding the set-up site, the usage had started with the formal occupancy permission given by Kutchan government, and it was returned to Kutchan town when the occupancy period expired on November 30, 2016 after its partial restoration was carried out by us. On this occasion, we have expressed the project should carry on for the following year and therefore to maintain some part of the facility to stay on. Mayor of Kutchan, Mr. Nishie, also clearly stated that Flow Trail Project should not have launched in the first place if it was to be completely removed. Cumulative total of 800 people have enjoyed the course and we have received positive feedback for the following year even though the flow trail testing was carried out only in a short period.
However, the Flow Trail Course was completely removed on December 3, 2016 and we regard outrageous.
We will demand the explanation from Kutchan government for reasons behind this complete removal and discuss again how the project should be remained for next year. We will report to you the outcome after the discussion with Kutchan government. We appreciate your patience and beg for tolerance to leave this matter to us for the time being.
