Loi du 2 août 2017

These legislative amendments have been introduced to regulate classified establishments and industrial emissions, impacting the country’s heritage and environmental landscape. The amendments focus on enhancing the monitoring and assessment of establishments’ effects on the environment and public health. They also address the authorization process for establishments with significant impacts on neighbouring states, emphasising compliance with emission limits and environmental standards.

One key aspect of the legislation is the requirement for detailed environmental impact assessments for classified establishments, ensuring a thorough evaluation of direct and indirect effects on the surrounding areas. The amendments also emphasise the importance of transparency by making emission monitoring results accessible to the public, promoting accountability and awareness. Additionally, the legislation extends deadlines for establishments that have changed authorities, providing a transition period for compliance with the new regulations.

Furthermore, the amendments introduce specific guidelines for combustion installations, emphasising the need for detailed reporting on operational processes and emissions. By focusing on emission limits for pollutants like sulphur dioxide and nitrogen oxides, the legislation aims to mitigate environmental pollution and protect both human health and the natural heritage of Luxembourg. Overall, these legislative changes reflect a commitment to sustainable development and environmental protection, ensuring that industrial activities align with the country’s heritage conservation efforts.
