Prawne aspekty ochrony zapachowej jakości powietrza
(Wydawnictwo Naukowe UAM, 2017) Jachnik, Eliza
The protection of air quality regarding its smell is a challenge for the Polish legislator due to the increasing number of complains about burdensome emissions of offensive odours by some business entities operating in the agricultural or industrial sector. Despite several attempts to do so, there has been no act adopted entirely to regulate this matter. The existing provisions refer only to the problem of nagging smells and norms that might reduce their intensity. In the author’s opinion efficient protection against burdensome odours must be accounted for already at the stage when new installations are made. Firstly, new investments should be located at a distance from residential districts. It may be helpful to plant green belts that would absorb the smell produced and emitted in the environment. Another solution is an obligatory requirement to invest in technology reducing the emission of odours.
