IGLESIAS ROSSINI, Gonzalo F.. Liability for environmental damage in Uruguay. Rev. Fac. Der. [online]. 2023, n.56, e202. Epub 01-Dic-2023. ISSN 0797-8316. https://doi.org/10.22187/rfd2023n56a1.
This study addresses the liability for environmental damage in Uruguay, regulated mainly in Article 47 of the Constitution of the Republic, Law No. 16,466 of January 19, 1994 (Environmental Impact Assessment Law), and Law No. 17,283, of November 28, 2000 (General Environmental Law). We will analyze how Uruguay defined environmental damage in its General Environmental Law, but without taken into consideration its regulation in the Environmental Impact Assessment Law. Many of these aspects have been attempted to be corrected in the Bill on Liability for Environmental Damage, which is being studied by Parliament, and of which the author of this article has been co-editor.
