Résumé

Objective: To safeguard environmental interests in the case of nuisances arising from environmentally harmful activities implemented in other Contracting States. Summary of provisions: Article 1 defines environmentally harmful activities and specifies that the Convention applies only insofar as environmentally harmful activities are not regulated by a special agreement between two or more Contracting Parties. Any person who is affected, or may be affected, by a nuisance caused by environmentally harmful activities in another Contracting State has the right to bring before a Court or Administrative Authority of that State the question of permissibility of such activities including measures to prevent and compensate damages. He or she also has the right to appeal the decision of that body to the same extent and on the same terms as a legal entity of the State in which the activities are being carried out (art. 3). Moreover, each State undertakes to appoint a supervisory authority to safeguard general environmental interests regarding nuisance arising out of environmentally harmful activities in another Contracting State. That authority has the right to institute proceedings before the competent court or administrative authority of another Contracting State regarding the permissibility of the environmentally harmful activities under the condition that such an authority in the other State can do the same (art. 4). The supervisory authority may publish communications from the examining authority in the local newspaper or in some other suitable manner and may institute investigations of the effects in its own State (art.7). If necessary in determining the damage caused in another State by environmentally harmful activities, the supervisory authority of the other State undertakes to make arrangements for on-site inspection (art. 10). Where the permissibility of environmentally harmful activities is examined by the Government or an appropriate Minister, consultations are to take place between the States concerned (art. 11).
