    Resting in Peace?—Regulating the Geological Storage of Radioactive Waste and Carbon Dioxide: Swedish and European Perspectives2010In: Risk, Hazards & Crisis in Public Policy, Vol. 1, no 4, p. 113-137Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    Carbon capture and storage or sequestration (CCS) and production of nuclear energy are both associated with potentially hazardous geological disposal or storage operations (of captured carbon dioxide [CO2] and spent nuclear fuel, respectively). Using Sweden as a focal point, applicable domestic, EU, and international rules affecting site selection and the nature and allocation of responsibility for long-term hazard management are compared and analyzed in this article. It is inter alia concluded that the legal terminology is partly misleading and that there are many similarities, but also some significant differences, with respect to spatial and temporal aspects of risks and benefits. Whereas disposal of spent nuclear fuel is mainly the reserve of domestic law, storage of CO2 is the subject of extensive EU regulation. With neither activity is the operator expected to pay for supervision of storage/disposal sites or remedial action for any extensive period of time, though the CCS regime is slightly more in keeping with the polluter pays principle. Neither regulatory framework purports to guarantee funds, knowledge, or technology to address problems that may arise beyond some decades into the future.

    Safe Return to the Underground? The Role of International Law in Subsurface Storage of Carbon Dioxide2009In: Review of European Community & International Environmental Law, ISSN 0962-8797, E-ISSN 1467-9388, Vol. 18, no 3, p. 286-303Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    Carbon capture and storage (CCS) has been described as an indispensable element in fighting dangerous climate change. At the same time, the technology is associated with significant uncertainties and risks. Focusing on the geological storage of captured CO2, this article takes stock of ongoing processes for accommodating CCS in international law. It finds that the current approach to CCS is patchy and, partly, short on substance. It then attempts to establish to what extent a harmonized international approach to regulating CCS is called for and how it may be achieved.

    Transboundary Dimensions of CCS: EU Law Problems and Prospects2014In: Carbon and Climate Law Review, ISSN 1864-9904, E-ISSN 2190-8230, Vol. 8, no 3, p. 198-207Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    The prospects for carbon capture and storage (CCS) in the EU are currently rather bleak. Nonetheless the technology remains a potentially vital part of EU climate strategy, although one associated with considerable financial and also legal challenges. CCS operations of a transboundary nature, in particular, have not received the attention that the complexity of the subject warrants. The article discusses some of the main legal obstacles and uncertainties associated with such operations, including effects of potential transboundary migration of injected CO2, the potential for storing captured CO2 outside of the EU, and the lack of clarity as regards coordination between Member States in relation to common CCS operations.

    Transboundary Transit Pipelines: Reflections on the Balancing of Rights and Interests in Light of the Nord Stream Project2014In: International and Comparative Law Quarterly, ISSN 0020-5893, E-ISSN 1471-6895, Vol. 63, no 4, p. 977-995Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    The Nord Stream project, which comprises two natural gas pipelines in the Baltic Sea, eminently illustrates several of the ambiguities that pertain to the ability of coastal States to regulate the laying and operation of transit pipelines in their exclusive economic zone and, conversely, the extent of the right of other States to carry out such activities. A highly significant issue is how seabed surveys undertaken in preparation for the laying of pipelines should be characterized, and thus regulated, under the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea. What is to be considered a ‘reasonable measure’ by a coastal State is another crucial issue which, together with the extent of the requirement for consent by the coastal State for any specific pipeline route, are decisive for defining the balance between potentially competing interests relating to submarine transit pipelines.

    Ansvar för förorenad mark på båtuppläggningsplatser med fokus på ideella föreningar: [Liability for Contaminated Land at Leisure Boatyards with a Focus on Non-Profit Associations]2014Report (Other (popular science, discussion, etc.))
    Abstract [en]

    Summaries of completed soil surveys at 34 leisure boatyards in Swedish coastal municipalities have shown that such areas are often highly contaminated by a variety of known hazardous substances and compounds, such as various metals (copper, zinc, lead, mercury, cadmium) and organic compounds (organotin compounds (e.g. TBT), polyaromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) ). TBT, PAHs, lead, cadmium and mercury compounds are among the priority substances which, according to the EU’s Water Framework Directive and its daughter directives, are to be phased out since they pose a significant risk to the aquatic environment. These are also substances that are important to remove from soil.

    A rough estimate indicates that there are about 2500 places in Sweden that may have been contaminated as a result of storage and maintenance work on pleasure boats alone. The report analyzes who bears the legal responsibility for these polluted sites. The emphasis is on the public law responsibility for any assessment and decontamination that may be required under Chapter 10 of the Environmental Code but the potential legal consequences of land contamination in the relationship between landowners and leaseholders are also looked at.

    The County Administrative Boards manage most of the decontamination operations on the basis of an order of priority based on risk classification. Leisure boatyards are usually categorized as two out of four on the risk classification scale. However, with respect to leisure boatyards it is the municipalities that are supervisory authorities and thus have the mandate to, inter alia, require the person responsible under the Environmental Code to take decontamination measures.

    The basic rule regarding liability for the remediation of contaminated land and water areas is that any person who pursue or have pursued an activity or taken a measure that is a contributory cause of the contamination (termed “operators”) are liable for remedying it to the extent that can be considered reasonable. The reasonability assessment that this necessitates includes both environmental factors, including planned future land use, and factors relating to the operator, including how much time has elapsed since the contamination took place and the extent to which the environmental risks were known at that time. Joint and several liability applies which means that any operator who contributed to the contamination may be required to pay for the remediation. However, any operator who shows that her contribution to the environmental damage is so insignificant that it does not by itself justify any remedial action is responsible only for such portion of the remedial action as corresponds to her own contribution to the harm.

    In situations where no operator can be made to perform or pay for remediation the property owner becomes liable for remediation even when she had nothing to do with the polluting activity. However, this applies only if the property owner acquired the property after 31 December 1998 and if she then knew or should have discovered the contamination.

    Whether leisure boat clubs are to be held liable for contamination depends on whether they are considered operators of the polluting activity. That, in turn, depends on whether they are considered to have the factual and legal ability to take action against damage or detriment caused by the activity. Relevant case law clearly supports that leisure boat clubs are to be regarded as operators with respect to activities carried out by their respective members and thus liable for any contamination. That does not preclude that individual members may also be considered operators. In most cases, however, the potential liability of individual members is of less importance since the above mentioned exception to the principle of joint and several liability makes it practically very difficult to hold them liable. However, any person who has polluted her own property through maintenance work on pleasure boats should be easier to hold liable were the municipality to pursue such a case. With respect to leisure boatclubs that lease the land where they operate the landowner may have the right to require that the land be restored to the state in which it was before the lease started, even if that is not explicitly stated in the lease agreement. The land owner may also be able to makea claim based on tort law if, for example, the value ofthe land decreases due to the leaseholder’s polluting activities.

    In addition to liability for remediation there is an equally important responsibility to prevent damage from ongoing activities. This entails an obligation to implement protective measures and take any other precautions that are not unreasonable in view of the benefits of the measures compared to the costs. This obligation applies to leisure boat clubs as well as to individual boat owners and may, if necessary, be supplemented by injunctions issued by the regulatory authority. It is important for the leisure boat clubs to adopt clear rules for their members and make sure that they are complied with.

    Lease agreements can also be an important instrument for regulating how leisure boatyards are used, including by specifying substances that may not be used and measures that must be taken to prevent the spread of toxic paint or other contaminants that have already reached the soil.There may also be reason for the legislature to consider making leisure boatyards subject to a permit requirement. Such a requirement would clarify the responsibility and send a signal about the potentially serious consequences of activities at leisure boatyards.

    CCS in the Baltic Sea region – Bastor 2: Work Package 4 – Legal & Fiscal aspects2014Report (Other academic)
    Abstract [en]

    There is currently considerable interest in the capture and storage of carbon dioxide (CO2) in Swedish basic industry. The purpose of the Baltic Storage of CO2 (‘Bastor 2’) project is to increase awareness of the potential for geological storage of CO2 in the Baltic Sea and to identify barriers to CCS implementation. This report – the main outcome of work package 4 on legal and fiscal aspects of the Bastor 2 project – provides an analysis of the current and suggested legal framework that would regulate CCS activities in Sweden and the wider Baltic Sea region. The evolution of a well-functioning legal framework for regional CCS operations is expected to be time consuming for which reason the early identification of potential hurdles is critical to all stakeholders.

    Against this backdrop the report’s core aim is to give an accessible account of the legal framework and how it is likely to affect various actors along the CCS value chain. This includes the identification of legal obstacles and gaps as well as analyzing the incentives and disincentives that are created by the law in its current form. Although taking Sweden as a starting point the report inevitably has its main focus on the EU CCS Directive (Directive 2009/31/EC) and related pieces of EU law.

    The report utilizes a decision tree structure to describe the key interlinked business processes which form the CCS value chain, thereby enabling the identification of ambiguities or gaps in the regulatory system and highlighting the multiple factors that determine the effect of decisions made along the chain.

    In addition to providing an increased understanding of the legal framework and its defining impact on the CCS value chain the report sets out a number of recommendations, primarily intended as input to the discussions regarding the imminent revision of the CCS Directive. Among these are that a clearer definition of ‘captured CO2’ ought to be developed and that more consideration should be given to potential market failures and the role of competition authorities in the buildup of CCS infrastructure. Particularly the rules on third party access to pipelines and storage sites are found to be quite vague at the EU level and thereby create room for problematic discrepancies between the Member States. In this regard the EU Natural Gas Directive could provide a valuable point of  reference. The responsibility for any transboundary CCS installations or structures is also under-regulated thereby causing significant uncertainties that ought to be addressed e.g. by means of relevant guidelines. As to the potential for storing CO2 captured in the EU outside of the union, something which may be relevant in a regional Baltic context since parts of the Baltic Sea is under Russian jurisdiction, this is found to be impossible without significant amendments to applicable EU law. It is also concluded that further efforts should be made to enable transport of captured CO2 by ship, something which currently is highly problematic due to the details of the EU emissions trading system (EU ETS), and that the inclusion of biogenic emissions under the EU ETS may also benefit the deployment of CCS in the Baltic Sea region.

    Affärsmässighet i kommunala bostadsbolag: effekter på energieffektivisering och andra hållbarhetsåtgärder2012In: Förvaltningsrättslig Tidskrift, ISSN 0015-8585, Vol. 2012, no 3, p. 319-338Article in journal (Other academic)
    Abstract [sv]

    Sedan år 2011 gäller enligt en ny lag att allmännyttiga kommunala bostadsaktiebolag ska bedriva sin verksamhet enligt affärsmässiga principer. De undantas därmed från förbudet för kommuner att bedriva verksamhet i vinstsyfte samt från den kommunala självkostnadsprincipen. Kravet på affärsmässighet har givit upphov till frågor om bolagens möjlighet att vidta åtgärder som främjar sociala och miljömässiga ändamål. I artikeln analyseras detta med särskilt fokus på utrymmet för att vidta energieffektiviseringsåtgärder. Även om kravet på affärsmässighet ger upphov till principiella svårigheter, eftersom bolagen samtidigt ska fylla ett allmännyttigt syfte, tycks det även efter lagens ikraftträdande finnas betydande handlingsutrymme för bolagen. Innehållet i bolagsordningar och andra styrdokument behöver dock ses över
