Both the European Commission and the EFTA Surveillance Authority (ESA) support environmental organizations in the Førdefjord lawsuit ahead of the autumn hearing in the EFTA Court.
A lawsuit to stop dumping of enormous amounts of mining waste in the pristine Førdefjorden in south-western Norway starts in Oslo district court.
Dumping of mining waste has no place in the future, neither in Førdefjorden nor any other fjord. Taking this case to court was expensive. We need your contribution to make a difference!
Friends of the Earth Norway and Young Friends of the Earth Norway are suing the Norwegian government over the granting of permission for dumping of mining waste into Førdefjorden on the country’s western coast.
