高等法院的一名法官裁定,环境团体爱尔兰环境之友(FIE)在针对Clare县Supermac服务站的废水连接协议提出质疑时,可获得法律费用保护。 A High Court judge has ruled that environmental group Friends of the Irish Environment (FIE) can receive legal costs protection in its challenge against a wastewater connection agreement for a Supermac’s service station in County Clare. 该决定是根据2011年《环境(杂项规定)法》作出的,是FIE声称将Banner Plaza站与已经过载的Clariabbbey废水厂连接起来,可能会加剧Fergus河的污染。 The decision, based on the Environment (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 2011, follows FIE’s claim that connecting the Banner Plaza station to the already-overloaded Clareabbey wastewater plant risks worsening pollution in the River Fergus. 尽管该站已投入运行,但仍未连接。 Though the station is operational, it remains unconnected. 法院认定,存在一个 " 可时效案件 " ,即这种联系可能造成环境损害,支持FIE的成本保护权。 The court found there is a “statable case” that the connection could cause environmental harm, supporting FIE’s right to cost protection. 此案涉及Uisce Éireann、环境保护局和总检察长作为通知方。 The case involves Uisce Éireann, the Environmental Protection Agency, and the Attorney General as notice parties.
