Mangrove Protection
The last Monday August 17, 2009, the Supreme Court of Justice in Mexico, declared unconstitutional the prohibition to carry out activities which damage the mangroves, this prohibition was stipulated in the articles 60 Ter. second paragraph and article 99, both from the General Law of Wild Life. In accordance with the quoted articles, removal, fill in, transplant, prune or any other activity which damage the hidrological flow integrity of the mangrove are prohibited excepting if those activities were done with scientific purposes.
Our highest court stated that such regulation does not violate the article 27 of the Federal Constitution for the reason that when the nation transmit the ownership of lands and waters to the private people, the nation stipulates the necessary measures in order to preserve and restore the ecological balance and avoid the destruction of the natural elements. Therefore, the Ministers from the First Courtroom denied an "Amparo" (injunction) for two touristic center developers that contest the General Law of Wild Life as unconstitutional, arguing that this law was obstructing the construction of two touristic developments in Isla Mujeres.
For what we can read lines before, having the Environmental Permits is as important as having a consultant or advisor in this issues, and IVHY ABOGADOS is an excellent option for fulfill your expectations.
