Administrative Court overturned government orders on Nursipalu training area expansion

Kohus ütles, et korralduste tühistamine ei tähenda, et on keelatud.
Kohus ei kahtlenud riigi hinnangutes ohust ega harjutusvälja laiendamise vajaduses. Aga kohus leidis vead mõlemas korralduses.
2023. aasta korraldus oli vale, sest riigil polnud piisavalt teavet. Riik ei teadnud, kuidas laiendamine mõjutab loodust ja inimesi.
Keskkonnamõju oli kirjeldatud liiga lühidalt. Mürauuringut ei tehtud. Natura hindamine oli puudulik.
2024. aasta korralduses olid ka probleemid. Mõju ele ei selgitatud täielikult. Müra probleemi ei lahendatud.
Kohus leidis, et on liiga kõrge, eriti suurõppuste ajal. Meetmed müra vähendamiseks olid liiga üldised.
Kohus ütles, et meetmed peaksid tagama e järgimise või aitama elanikel mürast pääseda.
Kohus lisas, et öösel laskmine on lubatud, kuigi on öösel madalamad.
Olulise ga tegevused on lubatud, kui on suur. Aga enne tuleb mõju hästi uurida ja leida lahendused.
Kui vead parandatakse, saab riik uue korralduse kehtestada.
Mõned kaebajad said oma kaebused rahuldamata, sest nad elasid liiga kaugel. Üks äriühing kaebas, aga kohus ei leidnud probleemi.
Kohtuotsus ei ole veel lõplik. 30 päeva jooksul saab esitada e.
The court stated that the annulment of the orders does not mean that the expansion of the training area is prohibited.
The court did not doubt the state's assessments of the threat or the need to expand the training area. But the court found flaws in both orders.
The 2023 order was incorrect because the state lacked sufficient information. The state did not know how the expansion would affect nature and people.
The environmental impact was described too briefly. Noise studies were not conducted. The Natura assessment was inadequate.
There were also problems with the 2024 order. The impact on Natura 2000 areas was not fully explained. The noise issue was not resolved.
The court found that military noise is too high, especially during major exercises. Measures to reduce noise were too general.
The court said measures should ensure compliance with noise standards or help residents escape the noise.
The court added that night shooting is allowed, although noise standards are lower at night.
Activities with significant environmental impact are permitted when public interest is high. But the impact must be thoroughly studied and solutions found beforehand.
If the errors are corrected, the state can establish a new order.
Some complainants had their complaints dismissed because they lived too far away. One business filed a complaint, but the court found no issue.
The court decision is not yet final. An appeal can be filed within 30 days.
