    • WHAT WE DO

    Legal Protection

    Administrative protection mechanisms
    • Establishing and keeping a registry of polluters;
    • Environmental impact assessment;
    • Integrated pollution prevention and control for operators whose activities impact the environment significantly;
    • Issuing permits for the use of public resources;
    • Inspections;
    • Limiting or withdrawing permits for the use of public resources in case of non-compliance with permit conditions.
    Laws exist to protect citizens from the oppression of individuals, organisations or authorities. Legislation recognises the importance of the environment and the need to protect it. Legislation is just a means to achieving a goal, and it has to be a common goal for all of us so we can achieve it together.
    Citizens have the right:
    • To information about the environment possessed by public authorities;
    • To take part in decision making and development of plans, programmes, policies and legislation that can impact the environment;
    • To legal protection in case their information access or public participation rights were violated.
    We provide professional assistance to private persons in exercising their right to a healthy environment in line with the highest global standards in administrative, litigation and criminal proceedings. Anyone whose right to a healthy environment was violated or threatened can contact us.
    Civil law protection

    Civil law protection in the field of environmental protection includes the protection of civil law relations stemming from causing environmental damage, applications to prohibit certain activities that threaten to cause damage and applications to cease the effect of ensuing harmful consequences.

    Criminal justice protection

    Criminal justice protection is also a significant aspect of environmental protection. Environmental crimes are crimes legislated to protect the environment, or more specifically – the human right to a preserved and healthy environment. This indirectly also protects human health, i.e. the human right to healthy living conditions.
