The Mark- och miljööverdomstolen dismissed the claim against a company regarding environmental investigation measures under Chapter 10 of the Environmental Code. The plaintiff argued for liability, but the court found it unjust to hold the current owner responsible for actions taken nearly forty years ago, before the specific liability regime for prior environmental hazardous activities was established. The court ruled that the current owner acquired the company with reasonable expectations that no environmental debt existed, thereby exempting them from the investigation order.

Testo completo

MÖD har funnit att det inte varit skäligt att ålägga ett bolag ansvar för utredningsåtgärder enligt 10 kap. MB med hänsyn till den särskilda omständigheten att nuvarande ägare till bolaget, för närmare fyrtio år sedan och innan bestämmelsen om ansvar för tidigare miljöfarlig verksamhet infördes i miljöskyddslagen, förvärvade ett lagerbolag med berättigade förväntningar på att det bolaget inte bar på någon miljöskuld.
