October 2, 2013 <\/i><\/span><\/span>\u2013 In July 2012, The Regional Environment Protection Agency in Timi\u0219oara released the environmental permit for the cyanide mining project in Certej, Hunedoara. Its details \u2013 devastating impact on the environment, legal faults, network of shareholders and owning companies \u2013 make the Certej project alike the one proposed for Ro\u0219ia Montan\u0103, drawing heavy criticism from Romanian environmental protection organizations.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The Ministry of Environment reacted with a two month delay, and only following requests from the civil society. Shortly after, the environment minister Rovana Plumb, declared that \u201dthe environment permit for Certej was released without respecting the legal procedures. We are talking about an illegal and irresponsible agreement\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/a><\/sup>. The National Environment Protection Agency, subordinate to the Ministry of Environment, submitted a request for the anullment or the environmental agreement for the Certej mining proiect, at the Bucharest Court of Appeal<\/span><\/span>. The Independent Centre for the Development of Environmental Resources intervened as a party<\/span><\/span><\/span> in this case.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

At the first hearing, the Bucharest Court of Appeal declined having the competence to rule on the case, and sent it to the Bucharest Tribunal. At the next hearing, scheduled for the 1st of October 2013, thus, approximately one year after the first hearing, the National Environment Protection Agency asked for another re-schedule, to better prepare itself for the subject. The plaintiff<\/span><\/span>\u2019s<\/span><\/span> low interest for the case and poor preparation for supporting the arguments in the brief can be clearly seen.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

At the same time, the defender chosen by Deva Gold SA in <\/span><\/span><\/span>the current trial is the Nestor Nestor Diculescu Kingston Petersen law firm. The delegated barrister is Mrs. Ana Diculescu-\u0218ova, mother of the Minister Delegate for infrastructure projects of national interest and foreign investments, Mr. Dan \u0218ova. The latter, as a member of Government, worked on the \u201dNational plan for Strategic Investiment and Job Creation\u201d, which was presented to the public in July of this year. The mining project proposed by Deva Gold SA at Certej is among the projects presented in this plan.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Following environment minister Rovana Plumb\u2019s plea for cyanide mining in Ro\u0219ia Montan\u0103, the ministry<\/span><\/span>\u2019s participation in this trial seems to be a simple act of feigning interest. It is as if the Environment Ministry would have Deva Gold spill 26.488 tons of cyanide directly into the Mure<\/span><\/span>\u0219 River and then taking the estimated profits directly from the accounts of the Romanian National Bank. This might indeed be the cheaper option for Romania, as it might also be cheaper to pay the \u0218ova clan the amounts that will result from their participation in the judicial representation for the mining companies, on the one hand, and the government lobby on the other\u201d said Tudor Br\u0103d\u0103\u021ban, member of Mining Watch Romania.<\/p>\n
