31In paragraph 42 of the judgment of 26 July 2017, Comune di Corridonia and Others (C‑196/16 and C‑197/16, EU:C:2017:589), the Court also noted that the facts — first, that the undertakings in question in the case giving rise to that judgment took the necessary steps to arrange for an EIA to be carried out, if necessary, second, that the refusal of the competent authorities to accede to those requests was based on national rules, the incompatibility of which with EU law was only subsequently established, and, third, that the activities of the plants at issue in that case were suspended — appeared to indicate that the regularisations carried out in that case were not permitted under national law in conditions similar to those in the case leading to the judgment of 3 July 2008, Commission v Ireland (C‑215/06, EU:C:2008:380, paragraph 61), and did not attempt to circumvent rules of EU law.
