Potential Shutdown Looms for Liège Airport: Environmental Permit in Jeopardy

2024-04-10 06:10:45

Liège airport could have to stop its activities overnight, reports Litter this Wednesday morning. Airport officials fear that the Council of State will give them a negative opinion, revoking the environmental permit validated by the Walloon government on January 31, 2023.

Indeed, the auditor of the Council of State analyzed the appeal brought by the Canapea and Dryade associations and announced that he was requesting the cancellation of this permit. If the Council of State follows this opinion rendered by its auditor, which is probable according to the legal analysis of the airport consulted by our colleagues at LitterLiege Airport would see its activities cease overnight.

The Walloon government must now draft a new environmental permit for the airport, which gives the Ecolo party the opportunity to renegotiate with its majority partners, the PS and the MR, the operating conditions of Liege Airport, and notably the number of aircraft movements authorized annually.
