The first Environmental Performance Review (EPR) of 2001 described the system of regulatory and economic instruments available for environmental purposes. These included emission charges (air pollution, wastewater discharges and waste disposal), user charges, taxes on the extraction and use of natural resources and penalties and compensation for environmental damage. The legal basis for economic instruments and payments for nature protection is established in the 1992 Law on Nature Protection. Article 33 of the Law lists all these instruments, including the possibility of using tax advantages and credit subsidies for the introduction of resourcesaving technologies.
