Legislator summary

AI generated

The Administrative Court of Finland refused to convert an indefinite wastewater discharge permit into a time-limited one upon the applicant's request. The court found that the Water Act generally grants such permits indefinitely and provided no basis to deviate from this rule. Consequently, the court rejected the additional requirement for a temporary condition, citing the legislative intent and preparatory works.

VYO ei muuttanut toistaiseksi myönnettyä kunnan jätevesien

johtamislupaa VYH:n vaatimuksesta määräaikaiseksi, koska vesilain

10 luvun 24b §:n ja lainkohdan valmistelutöiden mukaan

lupa jäteveden johtamiseen myönnetään asian luonteen mukaisesti

pääsääntöisesti toistaiseksi eikä pääsäännöstä ollut syytä

poiketa.

Koska vesi- ja ympäristöpiiriä ei voida oikeuttaa myöntämään

tilapäisestikään poikkeusta päästömääräyksistä, VYO hylkäsi

tällaista lupaehdon lisäystä koskevan vaatimuksen.

Samanlainen ratkaisu VY 90/68
