The Eighth Administrative Court of Appeal granted the appeal of the Rivne Regional Prosecutor's Office, annulled the decision of the first instance court, and obliged the Rivne Regional State Administration to produce protective obligations. 

Environmental prosecutors proved that over 1570 hectares of valuable territories, which are part of the Derman-Ostroh National Nature Park, have been used by state and private forestry enterprises since 2009 without properly executed protective documents.

These obligations are a key mechanism for the legal protection of nature reserve territories, as they compel owners and users to ensure compliance with the regime of protection and preservation of forests, water bodies, as well as flora and fauna.

The prosecutor's office emphasizes: nature protection is not a formality, but a real obligation of every land user.

This case is an example of the systematic work of the prosecutor's office aimed at identifying violations in the field of environmental protection and preserving the natural heritage of Rivne region.

Since the ruling of the appellate court takes effect from the moment of its adoption, prosecutors will take measures for its immediate execution.
