COUNCIL DIRECTIVE 97/11/EC of 3 March 1997

amending Directive 85/337/EEC on the assessment of the
effects of certain public and private projects on the environment

 

 

 

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

 

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European
Community, and

in particular Article 130s (1) thereof,

 

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission (1),

 

Having regard to the opinion of the Economic and Social
Committee

(2),

 

Having regard to the opinion of the Committee of the
Regions (3),

 

Acting in accordance with the procedure laid down in
Article 189c of

the Treaty (4),

 

(1) Whereas Council Directive 85/337/EEC of 27 June 1985
on the

assessment of
the effects of certain public and private projects on

the
environment (5) aims at providing the competent authorities with

relevant
information to enable them to take a decision on a specific

project in
full knowledge of the project's likely significant impact

on the
environment; whereas the assessment procedure is a fundamental

instrument of
environmental policy as defined in Article 130r of the

Treaty and of
the Fifth Community Programme of policy and action in

relation to
the environment and sustainable development;

 

(2) Whereas, pursuant to Article 130r (2) of the Treaty,
Community

policy on the
environment is based on the precautionary principle and

on the
principle that preventive action should be taken, that

environmental
damage should as a priority be rectified at source and

that the
polluter should pay;

 

(3) Whereas the main principles of the assessment of
environmental

effects should
be harmonized and whereas the Member States may lay

down stricter
rules to protect the environment;

 

(4) Whereas experience acquired in environmental impact
assessment,

as recorded in
the report on the implementation of Directive

85/337/EEC,
adopted by the Commission on 2 April 1993, shows that it

is necessary
to introduce provisions designed to clarify, supplement

and improve
the rules on the assessment procedure, in order to ensure

that the
Directive is applied in an increasingly harmonized and

efficient
manner;

 

(5) Whereas projects for which an assessment is required
should be

subject to a
requirement for development consent; whereas the

assessment
should be carried out before such consent is granted;

 

(6) Whereas it is appropriate to make additions to the
list of

projects which
have significant effects on the environment and which

must on that
account as a rule be made subject to systematic

assessment;

 

(7) Whereas projects of other types may not have
significant effects

on the
environment in every case; whereas these projects should be

assessed where
Member States consider they are likely to have

significant
effects on the environment;

 

(8) Whereas Member States may set thresholds or criteria
for the

purpose of
determining which such projects should be subject to

assessment on
the basis of the significance of their environmental

effects;
whereas Member States should not be required to examine

projects below
those thresholds or outside those criteria on a

case-by-case
basis;

 

(9) Whereas when setting such thresholds or criteria or
examining

projects on a
case-by-case basis for the purpose of determining which

projects
should be subject to assessment on the basis of their

significant
environmental effects, Member States should take account

of the
relevant selection criteria set out in this Directive; whereas,

in accordance
with the subsidiarity principle, the Member States are

in the best
position to apply these criteria in specific instances;

 

(10) Whereas the existence of a location criterion
referring to

special
protection areas designated by Member States pursuant to

Council
Directive 79/409/EEC of 2 April 1979 on the conservation of

wild birds
(6) and 92/43/EEC of 21 May 1992 on the conservation of

natural
habitats and of wild fauna and flora (7) does not imply

necessarily
that projects in those areas are to be automatically

subject to an
assessment under this Directive;

 

(11) Whereas it is appropriate to introduce a procedure
in order to

enable the
developer to obtain an opinion from the competent

authorities
on the content and extent of the information to be

elaborated
and supplied for the assessment; whereas Member States, in

the framework
of this procedure, may require the developer to provide,

inter alia,
alternatives for the projects for which it intends to

submit an
application;

 

(12) Whereas it is desirable to strengthen the provisions
concerning

environmental
impact assessment in a transboundary context to take

account of
developments at international level;

 

(13) Whereas the Community signed the Convention on
Environmental

Impact
Assessment in a Transboundary Context on 25 February 1991,

 

HAS ADOPTED THIS DIRECTIVE:

an assessment
with regard to their effects. These projects are defined

in Article
4.`;

 

2. The following paragraph shall be inserted in Article
2:

 

'2a. Member States may provide for a single procedure in

information
specified in Annex IV inasmuch as:

relevant to a

given stage of
the consent procedure and to the specific

(b) the Member States consider that a developer may
reasonably be

required to
compile this information having regard inter alia to

current
knowledge and methods of assessment.

 

2. Member States shall take the necessary measures to

preclude it from subsequently requiring the developer to

submit further
information.

give such an

opinion, irrespective of whether the developer so
requests.

 

3. The information to be provided by the developer in
accordance

ensure that

the
authorities likely to be concerned by the project by reason of

their specific
environmental responsibilities are given an opportunity

to express
their opinion on the information supplied by the developer

and on the
request for development consent. To this end, Member States

shall
designate the authorities to be consulted, either in general

terms or on a
case-by-case basis. The information gathered pursuant to

Article 5
shall be forwarded to those authorities. Detailed

arrangements
for consultation shall be laid down by the Member

States.`;
