Dal Consiglio di Stato quasi un "decalogo" sull'applicazione del principio di precauzione

[Autom. eng. transl.] The ruling in question concludes a complex affair with regard to water protection plans and water discharges in marine waters and is noted for some interesting statements on the precautionary principle. In the continuing uncertainty that still characterizes different aspects of the principle in question, the pronunciation has the advantage of making an important reconstructive effort, distancing itself from the purely hypothetical risk approach and suggesting the logical procedure that should be followed, in the absence of a precise normative discipline that directs the decisions of the public administration, in the concrete application of the same principle.
