WRITTEN QUESTION E-3191/00

by Konstantinos Hatzidakis (PPE-DE) to the Commission

(12 October 2000)

Subject: Pollution of Lake Vegoritis in Greece

On 13 September 2000, the Commission sent a second reasoned opinion to the Greek Government
concerning hazardous substances in Lake Vegoritis and failure to implement its depollution programmes.
The reasoned opinion states that the Greek Government(cid:146)s failure to act is contrary to the basic Community
Directive on water quality.

1.

Does the Commission intend to set the Greek Government a deadline for cleaning up the lake?

Are there any other similar cases pending against Greece pursuant to the same Community Directive,

2.
for which the Commission is preparing to issue a reasoned opinion?

Answer given by Mrs Wallstr(cid:246)m on behalf of the Commission

(4 December 2000)

In its judgment of 11 June 1998, the Court of Justice found in the joined cases C-232/95 and C-233/95
(Commission v. Greece) that: (cid:145)by failing to establish programmes including quality objectives and setting
deadlines for their implementation in order to reduce the pollution of Lake Vegorr(cid:237)tis and the River Soulos
and of the Gulf of Pagasa(cid:237) by the dangerous substances within List II of Council Directive 76/464/EEC of
4 May 1976 on pollution caused by certain dangerous substances discharged into the aquatic environment
of the Community, (cid:133) the Hellenic Republic has failed to fulfil its obligations under (cid:133) Directive 76/464,
in particular Article 7 thereof(cid:146).

On 7 September 2000 the Commission, considering that the steps taken by the Greek authorities to
comply with the above judgment were fragmentary and certainly did not constitute programmes including
quality objectives, delivered a reasoned opinion on the basis of Article 228 (formerly Article 171) of the
EC Treaty.

In connection with the same Directive, in case C-384/97 (Commission v. Greece) the Court found in a
judgment of 25 May 2000 that by failing to establish programmes including quality objectives in order to
reduce water pollution caused by the 99 dangerous substances covered by List II in the annex to Council
Directive 76/464/EEC (1), Greece has failed to fulfil its obligations under that Directive. The Commission
has asked the Greek authorities to communicate to it the measures necessary for them to comply with the
judgment.
