Main Challenges in Adopting Environmental Acquis
This article discusses the impacts of harmonization with the EU environmental acquis in Central and Eastern European (CEE) countries. It analyses legislative, administrative, financial and ecological impacts of harmonization in this field. In the legislative area it is not only transposition of the environmental acquis that has posed a challenge but even more its implementation. From the institutional point of view, accession has introduced reforms of existing and creation of some additional administrative bodies. The purpose of this new infrastructure was the increase of efficiency of the environmental protection system which had to be integrated on the EU level. From a financial point of view, accession has been very challenging for the CEE countries as they have been obliged to cover expenses mostly from their own resources. However, according to some estimates in the medium to long-term, the costs of harmonization in the area of the environment will be amply compensated by both economic and health-related benefits. From an ecological point of view harmonization with the EU acquis has contributed greatly to a clean-up of the CEE countries heavily polluted environments. The article’ s closing part examines expected financial impacts of harmonization with the environmental acquis for Croatia which is currently going through the accession process.
