Umweltaspekte

Investments in telecommunications projects do not fall under Annex I or II of Directive 2011/92/EU. Mobile telecommunications systems have limited environmental effects, apart from the visual impact of base station towers and electromagnetic field radiation. Details will be assessed during appraisal including the CO2 footprint and possible impacts on protected flora and fauna (Habitats 92/43/EC and Birds 79/409/EC).

Auftragsvergabe

The promoter is a private company not operating in the utilities sector, and is therefore not covered by the EU Directives on procurement.
