Three types of liability have been discussed in detail, that is: administrative, civil and penal. Civil liability may occur in the form of compensation for damages done to the environment. We call it compensatory liability, or the one taking the form of omission of a certain activity, which expresses in preventive liability. This may be based on the principle of guilt as determined in Article 415 PCC or, on the basis of risk as outlined in Article 435 PCC.
