According to the Geological and Mining Law, a landowner cannot object to the dangers caused by the movement of a mining plant, which is being conducted in accordance with the law. However, he can demand compensation for the damage caused by this movement. It is up to the injured party to choose how to repair it. The entity responsible for the damage is the entrepreneur responsible for the operation of the mining plant resulting in the damage or its legal successor. In their absence, the State Treasury, represented by the competent mining supervisory authority, is responsible for the damage. Claims for compensation for damage caused by the mining plant's movement are first pursued through a settlement procedure - the injured party applies to the State Tre¬asury (the director of the relevant Regional Mining Authority) for a settlement covering his claim. It is the duty of the director of the relevant Regional Mining Authority to take steps to investigate the legitimacy of the claim filed. Exhaustion of this procedure is a prerequisite for pursuing the claim before a common court in accordance with the rigors of the Code of Civil Procedure.
