Question juridique clé
Whether the Confederation must bear cleanup costs attributable to lead contamination caused by compulsory out-of-service shooting.
Solution extraite
No; the Confederation is not an immediate polluter merely because federal law requires out-of-service shooting.
Motifs extraits
The obligation stems from federal legislation, but the operation of ranges and environmental compliance are carried out by cantons and communes. Mere statutory causation is insufficient; an immediate causal link or a wrongful federal supervisory omission would be needed.
