Planning and timescale
We shall apply for the initiation of a special plan by the rural municipality Lüganuse. The type of this plan is the most correct and clear pursuant to law in order to ensure the mapping and engagement of the interests of the community in the best possible way.
The special spatial plan of the local government was prepared in two stages. In the first stage, the possible locations of the complex were compared and analysed and the most suitable one was selected. An area of 170 hectares in the Kohtla Forest District in the village of Aa was selected as the best location. The industrial district of the Järve District of the city of Kohtla-Järve is located to the east of the said area.
In the second stage, a detailed solution was prepared both for the production complex and the related infrastructure, and the related environmental impact assessments were conducted. The special planning process included a strategic assessment of environmental impact with regard to the potential locations and the overall impact of the production unit to be built. An environmental analysis was also conducted with regard to the combined impact with other industries.
With a majority of votes, the Lüganuse Rural Municipality Council on 29 May 2025 passed the decision to establish a local government special spatial plan under which Viru Keemia Grupp gains the right to build a bioproducts production complex in the territory of the rural municipality. The establishment of the plan allows us to move forward with the development.
The materials related to the special spatial plan of the bioproducts production complex are available on the homepage of Hendrikson DGE who prepared the special spatial plan.
