Abstract
"In July 2009, the Chilean Supreme Court, in Correa v. Comision Regional del Medio Ambiente of Valparaiso, annulled the environmental permit held by Campiche’s coal-fired power plant (the Campiche Project), located in the industrial area of Las Ventanas, in the Valparaiso Region of Chile.The Supreme Court, upholding the decision reached by the Valparaiso Appeals Court, ruled that the permit was illegal under the Valparaiso Zoning Plan, as the new plant was located in an area restricted only to recreational and green uses due to flooding risks. The project, which was in the construction stage, had to be stopped, and its final outcome remains unclear." (p. 1)
