Environmental law

ADALTYS acts in the field of environmental law, in particular as an assistant to legal project managers for the implementation of development projects (linear infrastructures, urban projects, sustainable mobility) on behalf of local authorities, public institutions and private individuals. 

ADALTYS has developed recognised expertise in the issues associated with these types of projects and in particular with regard to environmental assessment procedures (projects, plans and programmes, Natura 2000), procedures before the National Commission for Public Debate (Commission nationale du débat public), environmental consultations and public enquiries, environmental mitigation, exemptions for species and environmental authorisations, etc. 

ADALTYS advises and litigates on behalf of renewable energy operators (photovoltaic, wind turbines), on water and hydroelectricity law issues, or advises industrialists on issues related to Installations classified for the protection of the environment (ICPE- Installation Classée pour la Protection de l'Environnement) and/or polluted soils, or risks (Natural Risk Prevention Plans (PPRN- Plans de Prévention des Risques Naturels) / Technological Risk Prevention Plans (PPRT- Plans de Prévention des Risques Technologiques)).

Our lawyers specialising in environmental law have dual expertise in urban planning and development law and work in synergy with our teams specialised in energy law (ENR projects), real estate law (polluted sites and soils) and local authority law (Management of aquatic environments and flood prevention (GEMAPI- Gestion des milieux aquatiques et prévention des inondations), water and sanitation expertise).
