The Austrian Umweltsenat is a court or tribunal for the purposes of Article 234 EC. The Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) Directive is to be interpreted as meaning that a Member State has to subject a transboundary project to environmental impact assessment (EIA) even if the size of the project on its own territory does not reach the threshold for an assessment as defined in Annex I of the EIA Directive but the threshold is exceeded when parts of the project that are located in another State are taken into account (author’s headnote).
