The complaint was submitted by the association Green Alternative (Georgia) and the Balkani Wildlife Society (Bulgaria) on the development of a hydropower plant development within the Emerald Network site “Svaneti 1” in Georgia.
This could result in the destruction of habitats by flooding at the dam site as well as in the deterioration of habitats due to the change of the hydrological regime and the local climate. The complainant stated that this will negatively affect several species mentioned under Annex II of the Bern Convention including the Eurasian otter (Lutra lutra), Eurasian lynx (Lynx lynx), brown bear (Ursus arctos), and Persian leopard (Panthera pardus tulliana). The case file remains on stand-by.
