Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the appellants were entitled to challenge the project and distant ecological objections.
Extrahierter Entscheid
They could challenge the project only in the area affecting their own properties; objections concerning remote river vegetation were inadmissible.
Extrahierte Begründung
A private appellant must show a close spatial link and specific impact. Remote sections of the route and vegetation works near other canals were beyond the appellants' standing.
