摘要

This paper presents estimates of costs associated with approximating Lithuanian environmental protection legislation with that of the European Union (EU). Lithuania is one of twelve EU associate members in Central and Eastern Europe that is currently preparing for accession by approximating their legislation with that of the EU. The costs of fifteen EU directives are considered and details are given on four directives. Necessary investments may total EUD1500 million by 2015 and the present value of all annualized costs is expected to be about EUD2200 million. In 2015, annualized costs are estimated to be approximately EDU500 million, but these costs are only part of the total costs of approximation. Non-environmental costs are not considered. Assuming a modestly ambitious average annual growth of GDP of 2.0% per year implies that approximation with the fifteen directives analyzed will cost roughly 3.5% of GDP in 2015. This level of additional commitment to environmental protection is itself much higher than the 2.0% of GDP being spent on average by OECD countries and suggests the possibility of a substantial economic burden on the Lithuanian economy. Public budgets and households are expected to carry a substantial portion of this cost, because many directives are the responsibility of national and local governments. Making the right choices that are expected to be part of approximation with the environmental acquis is likely to benefit from careful comparisons of costs and willingness to pay for the environmental benefits of approximation.
