Aspects environnementaux

The characteristics of the Project components are such that they typically fall under Annex II of the Environmental Assessment Directive 2011/92/EU (amended 2014/52/EU), leaving it up to the national competent authority to determine whether an environmental impact assessment is required according to criteria defined in Annex III of the Directive.
