COMMISSION NOTICE Guidelines providing a common understanding of the term ‘environmental damage’ as defined in Article 2 of Directive 2004/35/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council on environmental liability with regard to the prevention and remedying of environmental damage · European Union

| 71. | For purposes of preventive measures and immediate management of damage factors, the need for rapid assessment means that reliance will need to be placed on and conclusions reached on the basis of readily available information. General information about the nature of the damage factors and the exposure of a natural resource to their adverse effects will often be key, since there may be no time to wait for site-specific details to emerge. The application of the precautionary principle is necessary in such circumstances. (92)
