Conservation Property Right

From EverybodyWiki Bios & Wiki

The Conservation Property Right also known as the Conservation Right or Environmental Conservation Right is a new institution of private law established in Chile by Law 20.930 enacted on June 10, 2016 [2]

In its article 2, this law establishes: ´The conservation property right is a property interest that consists in the faculty to conserve the environment of a specified land or certain attributes or functions of such environment´. See also the original spanish version of this legal definition in derecho real de conservación which is the original spanish language name of this new institution.[1]

The conservation property right can be applied in rural or urban areas, either to ecosystems or habitats in strict sense or to different environmental, social or cultural elements.[2][3]. Moreover, the conservation property right can be established with respect to ´attributes´ and ´functions´ of the corresponding environment, which means that this new property right can be directly established with respect to specific ecosystem services.

The ´conservation property right´ is defined by reference to a normative power: the ´faculty to conserve´ that constitutes its central normative element.[3] It is this new ´faculty to conserve´ that distinguishes this new property right from the conservation easements or servitudes that are defined and characterized as ´restrictions´ -and that in the civil law system are typified as encumbrances or gravamen-.[4][5]

Notes[edit]

  1. The denomination of the ´conservation property right´ was originally proposed in 2003 in Chile in order to differentiate this institution from conservation easements or servitudes.

  2. This results from the broadness of the concept of environment adopted by the legislation of Chile -Article 2 of the Environmental Framework Law, Law No19.300
  3. In this respect it should be noticed that in the civil law tradition a ´faculty´ defines the normative power granted to a property right´s holder
