Language of the case: French
Applicants: Ville d’Ottignies-Louvain-la-Neuve, Michel Tillieut, Willy Gregoire, Marc Lacroix
Defendant: Région wallonne
1.Is Article 7 of Directive 75/442/EEC (1) on waste to be interpreted as permitting the classification as a waste management plan of a legislative provision that states that, in derogation from the rule that no landfills may be authorised except on the sites provided for in the waste management plan, landfills authorised before that waste management plan entered into force may, after such entry into force, be the subject-matter of new authorisations in respect of the plots covered by the authorisation pre-dating the entry into force of the waste management plan?
2.Is Article 2(a) of Directive 2001/42/EC on the assessment of the effects of certain plans and programmes on the environment (2) to be interpreted as including within the meaning of plan and programme a legislative provision which states that, in derogation from the rule that no landfills may be authorised except on the sites provided for in the waste management plan required by Article 7 of Directive 75/442/EEC on waste, landfills authorised before that waste management plan entered into force may, after such entry into force, be the subject-matter of new authorisations in respect of the plots covered by the authorisation pre-dating the entry into force of the waste management plan?
3.If the answer to the second question is in the affirmative, does the second paragraph of Article 70 of the Decree of 27 June 1996 on waste, as amended by the Decree of 16 October 2003, satisfy the requirements for the assessment of effects laid down in Directive 2001/42/EC?
