Question juridique clé
Whether the neighbors had standing to request noise-abatement and enforcement measures against the shooting range
Solution extraite
Yes. Because they were specially affected by significant noise immissions, they were entitled to party status and to request a formal decision.
Motifs extraits
Environmental protection law gives affected neighbors a legally protected interest and an entitlement to a decision when they seek measures against harmful immissions; the lower court applied standing too narrowly.
