Key legal question
Whether the waste volumes at the facility required an environmental impact assessment and additional coordination of permits
Extracted holding
The proven annual waste throughput was far below the 10,000-ton threshold; no environmental impact assessment was required and the permitting coordination was not deficient.
Extracted reasoning
The cantonal findings on volumes were not arbitrary; the appellant’s estimates were speculative. The authorities had coordinated the procedures, and the facility could treat the waste lawfully.
