The Environmental Impact Statement and its role in the nuclear licensing procedure

Creators

Description

The author discusses the implementation in Germany of the EC Directive on Environmental Impact Statements in the light of the legal tradition and concepts of law in Germany, especially in the context of the nuclear licensing procedure. His analysis reveals some legal provisions and legal concepts in existing German law that will have to be ''sacrificed'' in order to do justice to the European Union, as in the formation of the body of EC law governing environmental issues, the Anglo-Saxon approach to regulatory law has been the prevailing line of orientation (the EU ecological audit being an example). On the whole, however, the implementation of the EU Directive will not lead to substantial changes beyond procedural modifications. (HP)

Abstract (German)

Der Autor diskutiert die Umsetzung der EG-Richtlinien in deutsche Rechtstraditionen und -vorstellungen, besonders beim atomrechtlichen Genehmigungsverfahren. Dabei seien Abstriche an deutsche Rechtsvorschriften der Preis der Europaeischen Einheit. Das EG-Umweltrecht sei besonders angelsaechsisch gepraegt (Beispiel sog. Oeko/Audit). Der Autor meint, die UeVP werde jeweils gewisser verfahrensrechtlicher Elemente nicht zu anderen Sachentscheidungen als bisher fuehren. (HP)
