Law on Environmental Impact Assessment.

This Law regulates environmental impact assessment. It is defined as the procedures to be performed in accordance with the procedures laid down in this Law in order to assess the possible impact of the implementation of intended activities or a planning document on the environment and to develop proposals for the prevention or decrease of negative effects or to prohibit the initiation of an intended activity in cases of the violation of the requirements laid down in laws and regulations. The purpose of this Law is to prevent or reduce the negative impact of the implementation of the intended activities of natural persons and legal persons or of a planning document thereof on the environment. The Cabinet need not, by issuing an individual order, apply the impact assessment to an intended activity which is related to the national defence if the application of the impact assessment procedures may undesirably influence the achievement of the goals of the intended activity. The initial assessment and environmental impact assessment shall not be applied to the construction of the infrastructure of military training areas, except in the protected nature territories of European significance (Natura 2000).
