The Public Prosecutor required the prohibition of those equestrian activities because they result in mobilisations that have a negative environmental impact on the beaches and coasts where they take place. Also, those activities were not integrated into the land use plan as required by the 2008 land use planning act. But the Court of Appeal stated that both precautionary and preventive principle require to be applied that potentials danger for health and environment are clearly identified which is not the case here as the linkage between equestrian activities and the damages on the beaches and the coasts is not clearly established. Therefore the court dismissed the appeal. Texte intégral DFA-0009-000221 2014.pdf hojaInsumo2.seam
