The Court:

—

in so far as that legislative decree does not provide for the application of Articles 2 to 13 of Directive 1999/31 to landfills authorised subsequent to the date of expiry of the period for transposition of that directive and prior to the date of the entry into force of the legislative decree, and

—

in so far as it does not secure the transposition of Article 14(d)(i) of that directive,

the Italian Republic has failed to fulfil its obligations under Articles 2 to 14 of Directive 1999/31;

2.

Orders the Italian Republic to pay the costs.
