Is it okay to consolidate waste and issue it with a single manifest?

Introducing the views of the Ministry of the Environment and Tokyo Metropolitan Government! We respond to the "challenges" in the field operations of waste management.

Here is the translation: "We would like to introduce an answer to the question, 'Is it possible for a business operator (hereinafter referred to as the building management company, etc.) that provides a collection point for industrial waste in buildings, to issue a single manifest for industrial waste generated by each tenant (hereinafter referred to as each tenant) residing in the same building when carrying out administrative tasks such as issuing manifests?' Upon checking the Tokyo Metropolitan Government's website as the representative municipality, we found in the appropriate processing guidebook provided by Tokyo that it states, 'The name of the waste generator should be each tenant.' When building management companies, etc. carry out the administrative tasks of issuing manifests for each tenant, there may be differences in judgment depending on the municipality. However, as an example, in Tokyo, it is considered that the principle of operation is to issue a manifest for each tenant as the waste generator.
