Information obligation of the regional office

Main information

The regional office shall ensure that the public is informed through the official board and the public administration portal within 15 days of receiving a submission on the preparation or review of an emergency plan for storage sites of category I mining waste, with the public being able to communicate about these proposals within 30 days of their publication your comments to the regional office. The regional office will publish their settlement in a similar way even before the emergency plan is approved.

Service settlement

What you need if you are using this service

In its own interest, the public only needs to follow what the regional office has officially published. The regional office will publish information about the receipt of a submission regarding the preparation or review of an emergency plan for storage sites of category I mining waste through the official board and the public administration portal. The service is therefore primarily handled by the regional office, which informs the public about the relevant submission. The public can subsequently send their comments in the form of documents in paper form by post or in person through the filing office (or protocol) at the headquarters of the regional office. 

Where and how to solve this service

The service starts with the publication of information about the emergency plan, which will be carried out by the regional office. The public can then send their suggestions to the regional office; this step can also be done through documents in paper form.

Contacts for regions and regional offices can be found on the website of the Association of Regions of the Czech Republic.
