Aspects environnementaux
The project was classified in Annex II of the Directive 85/337/EEC on Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) as subsequently amended by Directive 2011/92/EU. The project was therefore the subject of a case-by-case determination of the need for EIA, as part of an EIA screening procedure carried out by the relevant competent authority, the Local Environmental Protection Agency (LEPA) Arad, which concluded that an EIA is not required. Concerning the main impacts, the environmental authority imposed mitigation measures related to protection of water, air, and soil and waste management, particularly during construction. Noise protection measures have also been defined, particularly for the area around Arad station.
Passation des marchés
The promoter, CFR, is subject to the EU Directives on procurement. The procurement process for the works was based on a two-stage approach, with a first pre-qualification stage followed by a submission of offers by the pre-qualified tenderers. The losing bidder contested the outcome of the tender, but at the end of this process its claim was rejected by the Romanian courts.
