Art. 12 NHG

Gegen Verfügungen der kantonalen Behörden oder der Bundesbehörden steht das Beschwerderecht zu: a. den Gemeinden; b. den Organisationen, die sich dem Naturschutz, dem Heimatschutz, der Denkmalpflege oder verwandten Zielen widmen, unter folgenden Voraussetzungen: 1. die Organisation ist gesamtschweizerisch tätig, 2. sie verfolgt rein ideelle Zwecke; allfällige wirtschaftliche Tätigkeiten müssen der Erreichung der ideellen Zwecke dienen.

Das Beschwerderecht steht den Organisationen nur für Rügen in Rechtsbereichen zu, die seit mindestens zehn Jahren Gegenstand ihres statutarischen Zwecks bilden.

Der Bundesrat bezeichnet die zur Beschwerde berechtigten Organisationen.

Zuständig für die Beschwerdeerhebung ist das oberste Exekutivorgan der Organisation.

Die Organisationen können ihre rechtlich selbständigen kantonalen und überkantonalen Unterorganisationen für deren örtliches Tätigkeitsgebiet generell zur Erhebung von Einsprachen und im Einzelfall zur Erhebung von Beschwerden ermächtigen.
