Overview
- The Court condemned the National Government, the provinces of Buenos Aires, Entre Ríos and Santa Fe, and the municipalities of Rosario and Victoria to implement the interjurisdictional PIECAS-DP.
- Mandated actions include installing equipment and infrastructure, creating early-warning information systems, deploying the Red de Faros de Conservación, executing a systematic control plan, and adopting a Delta-specific fire management plan.
- The justices found no effective progress under prior orders and identified the municipality of Victoria as a principal origin area for ignition points.
- Horacio Rosatti, Carlos Rosenkrantz and Ricardo Lorenzetti emphasized that execution and ongoing follow-up fall to national, provincial and municipal authorities rather than the judiciary.
- The case, initiated in 2020 by Asociación Equística Defensa del Medio Ambiente, cited persistent smoke and ash in Rosario and reported intentional, illegal burns linked to agricultural activity.
