Fédération Nationale des Collectivités Concédantes et Régies

FNCCR

Association nationale d'élus locaux, la FNCCR intervient dans 4 domaines : - l’énergie : distribution d’électricité et de gaz, maîtrise de la demande en énergies, énergies renouvelables ; - l’eau : petit et grand cycles de l’eau ; - la gestion et la valorisation des déchets ; - le numérique : communications électroniques et mutualisation informatique. Les différents services de la Fédération travaillent en collaboration sur les sujets d’intérêt commun tels que le développement des réseaux intelligents ou la coordination, la sécurisation des travaux sur les différents réseaux, l'articulation avec les documents d'urbanisme et les relations avec les associations de consommateurs. Organe d'expression collective d'élus responsables de l'organisation de services publics locaux, la FNCCR fait valoir, aux niveaux national et européen, le point de vue de ses adhérents auprès des pouvoirs publics et des autres interlocuteurs (consommateurs, entre-prises, etc.). Comme relais d'opinion de ses collectivités adhérentes, la FNCCR constitue une force de proposition lors de l'élaboration de la législation et de la réglementation applicables aux services publics locaux. Elle agit notamment en faveur de l'évolution du cadre institutionnel dans lequel s'inscrivent ces services publics, afin que celui-ci tienne compte des réalités du terrain. Ses représentants siègent dans diverses instances nationales de concertation ou de décision, ainsi que dans de nombreux groupes de travail constitués par les ministères. Les adhérents de la FNCCR mettent en commun leurs ré-flexions et leurs expériences pour porter leurs idées au plus haut niveau. La FNCCR assure par ailleurs une veille juridique très complète pour le compte de ses adhérents. Elle édite également des notes et lettres d’informations périodiques à l'intention des collectivités. Elle répond au cas par cas aux questions précises de ses adhérents, dans ses domaines de compétence. Enfin, la FNCCR est agréée organisme de formation et propose chaque année des formations en rapport avec l’actualité juridique et technique, et les besoins spécifiques des collectivités membres.

Lobbying Activity

Response to Evaluation of the impact of the CAP on habitats, landscapes and biodiversity

5 Dec 2018

As a federation of local authorities in charge of drinkable water production and management of aquatic environments, we want to catch your attention on the link between biodiversity and water quality. Nevertheless, the quality and quantity of water available need to be in the CAP 2020 priorities at the same level as climate change, biodiversity and carbon issues. It seems imperative to deeply remodel agricultural systems by favouring quality and food safety rather than productivity in order not to decrease natural ressources and damage environment and biodiversity. For this, we need a coherent environmental public policy. The main goal of the CAP seems to be limited to provide a salary for the farmers involved in an intensive and unsustainable production, even though it is economically perishing. We must revise the dedicated fundings to help developing new viable production methods that meet environmental, climatic, food safety and ethic challenges. The approach must also be coherent and incentive to avoid exporting food products while the local demand is not covered and require to import it from another country. The discussion needs to go over the simple level of fundings. Obviously, the flexibility given to the member states in matter of rural development is not enough and inadequate. Forcing the member states to make access conditions for european funds easier is absolutely necessary for more efficiency and a better allocation of the funds. Facilitating subsidies instruction or any request whose conditions are adapted to fit the local context and allowing new experiment is essential. In addition to the previous propositions concerning the subsidies, FNCCR suggests the following dispositions : - To recognize the environmental benefits, resulting from landscape semi-natural elements restauration (hedges, wood, grass strips…) for biodiversity, ecosystems, soil, water quality and flows; - To diversify agricultural systems by establishing an intangible principle of soil biomasse restauration, by imposing a minimal number of crops per rotation and by promoting crops genetic diversity to get adapted to climate change; - To highlight organic agriculture conversion and favour environmental quality labels to the detriment of intensive agriculture system; - To quantify and highlight the soil purification job and services provided by the biodiversity. Please find attached a more complete file with some more reflection to progress in agriculture and biodiversity conservation.
