Judgment of the Court (Seventh Chamber) of 17 October 2024 (request for a preliminary ruling from the Niedersächsisches Oberverwaltungsgericht – Germany) – Umweltforum Osnabrücker Land eV v Landkreis Osnabrück


(Case C-461/23,
                (1)

(Reference for a preliminary ruling - Environment - Directive 2001/42/EC - Assessment of the effects of certain plans and programmes on the environment - Article 3(2)(b) - Directive 92/43/EEC - Article 6(3) - Acts for which an assessment is required - National legislative act designating a site as a special area of conservation - List of human activities prohibited on that site, with certain exceptions)

Language of the case: German

Referring court

Niedersächsisches Oberverwaltungsgericht

Parties to the main proceedings


Applicant: Umweltforum Osnabrücker Land eV

Defendant: Landkreis Osnabrück

Operative part of the judgment

Article 3(2)(b) of Directive 2001/42/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 June 2001 on the assessment of the effects of certain plans and programmes on the environment, read in conjunction with Article 6(3) of Council Directive 92/43/EEC of 21 May 1992 on the conservation of natural habitats and of wild fauna and flora,
must be interpreted as meaning that a legislative act by which the Member State concerned designates a site as a special area of conservation, under Directive 92/43, and which lists the human activities which are prohibited on that site, subject to the exceptions which that legislative act also lays down, is not covered by the concept of ‘plans and programmes’, within the meaning of Directive 2001/42, in respect of which an environmental assessment is required.

DRIVING  THE  CIRCULAR  ECONOMY 
TRANSFORMATION  IN THE LODZKIE REGION AND BEYOND 

October 2024 

("'\  ABOUT THE  FRONTSHlP PROJECT 

' - '  The  aim  of the  FRONTSHlP  project is  the circular transformation  of 
the Lodzkie Region  in Poland and the replication of the applied model 
of circularity in  four other regions  in  Portugal, the Netherlands,  Italy, 
and  Greece.  FRONT5H1P  implements  Circular  Systemic  Solutions 
(C55) to transform the region from a linear economy (take-make-use 
dispose)  to a  circular economy  in  four areas:  wood  packaging,  food 
and  feed,  water  and  nutrients,  plastic,  and  rubber.  [55 aims  to  be 
resource-efficient,  able to deal with  climate  change  and  reduce  CO2 
emissions into the atmosphere. 

[21 DESCRIPTION  OF SUCCESSS 
✓ Project  participants  discovered  that if,  in  the  region,  there  is  a  high 

level  of  market  and  governance  failure  in  the  management  of 
resources and raw materials, including waste, the top-down approach 
of  circular  economy  implementation  is  ineffective.  Therefore,  the 
project's success is in the creation of a new adaptive methodology for 
implementing a circular economy at the local level (in the municipality 
or other smaller territorial social cooperatives). 

FRONTSHlP  developed  a  new  Circular  Governance  Model  -
CircuPuncture, which was implemented by a Polish association of local 
and  territorial  governments  in  the  Region  and  in  the  town  of 
Parz~czew. It is a method that promotes a resource-based  approach
