Lietuvos aplinkos teisinės apsaugos problemos

LTStraipsnyje iškeliamos ir analizuojamos Lietuvos aplinkos teisinės apsaugos problemos, kurios kyla dėl to, kad aplinkos apsaugą reglamentuoja įstatymų ir kitų teisės aktų įvairovė ir gausa, kurie dažnai keičiami ir papildomi, nesukurta vieninga ir darni jų sistema. Todėl jų įgyvendinimas praktikoje tampa problematiškas, sudaromos sąlygos piktnaudžiauti teise, korupcijai, pakeisti piliečių subjektyvias teises, kilti viešųjų ir privačių interesų konfliktui. Atsižvelgiant į tai, kad per teisinės apsaugos sistemą turi būti įgyvendinami strateginiai ES ir Lietuvos aplinkos politikos bei darnaus vystymosi principai, esami tos sistemos trūkumai žymiai sumažina jos efektyvumą. Straipsnyje siūlomi problemų sprendimo būdai – sukurti vieningą aplinkos teisinės apsaugos sistemą: tobulinti pagrindinį Aplinkos apsaugos įstatymą, taip pat sisteminti ir kodifikuoti teisės normas, reglamentuojančias atskirų aplinkos objektų naudojimą ir apsaugą, parengti ir išleisti žemės, miškų, vandens, biologinės įvairovės ir saugomų teritorijų kodeksus.

However, the nature of issue evidences under the fact that in order to integrate the requirements of the environmental protection into other fields of social life successfully as well as implement them successfully is possible just when there is designed a united and harmonious legal regulation system of relationships concerning environmental protection that in principal is not existent in Lithuania at all. The following issues have not been analysed under the systematic approach in the legal literature as well as, and that conditions the actuality of the following theme.Recently the relationships of the environmental protection in Lithuania are regulated by a plenty and variety of national laws, post-juridical acts and legal acts of the EU that are not systematized as well as their regulations are frequently altered, and they are as often as not clear, contradictory, ambiguous, etc., thus their practical implementation turns to be problematical and in efficient. Even a qualified lawyer finds them difficult to comprehend, saying nothing about the fact that officers of public and autonomous institutions as well as citizens, who do not possess specific legal education, have to implement them. In that case there are provided presumptions for corruption, misuse of law, the emerge of disputes related to public and private interests, violation of citizens' rights as well as there is promoted social passiveness and legal nihilism.
