The lawsuit comes after Poland and Czechia failed to reach an agreement during negotiations that took place in Warsaw a week ago. Czechia will also demand that mining in Turów ceases immediately until the court makes a final judgement.
According to Czech officials, Poland broke EU law last year by extending the mine’s license until 2026 without carrying out the necessary public consultation or an environmental impact assessment. PGE has already asked for another extension until 2044.
Water supply placed in jeopardy
In December, the European Commission supported Czechia’s claim that Poland is violating the Environmental Impact Assessment Directive that would require a transboundary consultation with Czechia and Germany.
