7 Significant court practice related to environmental assessment for future exploration activities Decision No dated 31 May 2017 of the Bulgarian Supreme Administrative Court ruled that the necessity of having environmental assessments shall be considered during the process of co-ordination of overall work plans, including oil and gas exploration developments and investments because they: are programs as per the Environment Protection Act and fall within the scope of chapter six of the EPA; frame future developments within investment proposals; and are included in the Ordinance on the Terms and Conditions for Carry out of Environmental Assessment of Plans and Programs (State Gazette No. 57/ ) 7
8 Potential legislative amendments proposed by the Mining chamber Environment Protection Act: to authorize the Minister of Environment and Waters (and not the Regional inspectorate of MEW) to issue the decision for considering the necessity of having an EIA.
