Questão jurídica principal
Whether the appellants had standing to challenge the cantonal quarrying and water-use approvals
Decisão extraída
The appellants were directly and specially affected because their properties bordered the lakeshore and the quarrying would take place less than 200 meters away, with visible and audible emissions; standing was therefore obvious.
Fundamentação extraída
Under Art. 89(1) BGG and Art. 111 BGG, cantonal authorities may not require stricter standing than the Federal Supreme Court. The applicants showed sufficient proximity and practical interest, especially to avoid noise immissions.
