Case 3: IPPC site and Water Act<br />

Proposal for the misdemeanour authority:<br />

� Due to the significant damage to the environment and<br />

the fish population in the river, the <strong>Environmental</strong><br />

Inspectorate proposed a fine of 5.000 €.<br />

Compensation for the fish damage: 10.000 €<br />

� Mitigating was the good environmental record and the<br />

co-operative attitude of the operator<br />

� The Public Prosecutor was informed by the county<br />

administration, the case was not followed by the court<br />

because of the low criminal profile<br />
