Environmental law 
in this day and age.
Are you planning to start a new project and wondering what rules and permits apply? Do you want to know what can be built on your site or what business activities are allowed? Or are you dealing with nature protection, environmental legislation or spatial planning?
When environmental law is relevant to you
Environmental law regulates the laws and regulations that affect people and their living environment. This includes topics such as nature protection, environmental legislation, water management, building and spatial planning. These regulations determine what may be built, what business activities are allowed and whether flora and fauna must be taken into account.

Questions and answers
What is environmental law and what is it about?
Environmental law is the area of law that deals with regulations and laws relating to the physical environment. This includes spatial planning, environment, nature, water management, and infrastructure. The aim of environmental law is to strike a balance between economic development and the protection of the environment and the living environment.
What happens when environmental rules are breached?
If environmental rules are breached, the municipality can impose various sanctions. These can range from a warning to an administrative fine. In addition, the municipality can impose an order under administrative coercion or a penalty to end the violation and undo its consequences. In some cases, violations can also be prosecuted under criminal law.
How will the Environment Act affect businesses?
The Environment Act has several implications for businesses. On the one hand, the law offers more flexibility and less administrative burden by bundling and simplifying rules. On the other hand, companies must comply with the new rules and instruments introduced by the Act. This may mean that companies have to adjust their practices to comply with the new environmental, safety and spatial planning requirements.
