Comment: "Thanks. Yours was the most helpful answer, but not entirely satisfactory. I ended up using: county environmental appeal delegation. Not perfect either but closer to the organizational and legal status of the institution."

These references are only indicative and my suggestion is an inference of hints and the reason my confidence level is set to medium (you can see "prövning" on Norstedts and a hint about "environmental enquiry" in the other reference)
