abstract
The paper inquires in details into the impacts of the new Building Act adopted in 2006 on the environmental protection in the Czech Republic. In the introductory comments, the attention is paid to the comparison of the proposed and the approved wording of the most significant provisions of the Act in relation to the environmental protection. The core of the paper is the thorough examination of the environmental protection guarantees in the land-use planning processes. The environmental protection is understood as one of the most important public interests that play the role in the land-use planning, and the linkages to the other key interests such as the proprietary interests are not left out of consideration. Special attention is further paid to the information and public participation obligations during the land-use planning from the point of view of the environmental protection. The closing parts of the paper are addicted to the new character and relevance of the so called binding assessments of the respective environmental protection authorities and their implications in the assuring of the environmental protection during the land-use planning.
