IMPACT ON BIODIVERSITY
GRI 304-2
In 2019, the PGNiG Group implemented projects that were located near protected and valuable natural areas. All of the work involved in the projects was carried out in accordance with decisions and permits in place. Additionally, in the areas with extremely sensitive habitats, wildlife inventory taking was completed. Derogations were obtained in individual cases only.
