| Environmental protection was initially defined, in domestic law, by the policy governing the establishments classified under the General Regulation for Occupational Health and Safety, i.e. by a system of prior authorisations for dangerous, unhealthy or uncomfortable establishments. This system has developed into one of “environmental permits” as it is now organised in the three Belglian regions. The objective of the course is to understand the cross-cutting aspects and the specific characteristics of the systems in place. |

Content
Administrative Authorizations (Environment)
The administrative authorization regime in environmental matters (operating permits) constitutes one of the first regulations of activities likely to impact the environment or the neighborhood (see the RGPT regime).
First, the course addresses the regulatory framework of administrative authorization regimes in environmental matters under EU law. It reviews the requirements of the environmental impact assessment regime already covered in a previous course and the requirements of the IED (formerly IPPC) and SEVESO directives.
Next, the Belgian legal regimes are examined comparatively, taking into account their developments since the RGPT.
