The register is divided into 4 categories according to ihe output, size and type of the source of the emissions: REZZO 1 - stationary units for fuel combustion with a total thermal output of more than 5 MW (large pollution sources with the heaviest impact on the environment). In addition to these, selected technologies are included. This database comprises continually recorded data since 1985 with 982 facilitators of pollution sources being registered. REZZO 2 - stationary units for fuel combustion with a total thermal output of 0.2 to 5 MW (medium pollution sources with medium impact on the environment. Also include are certain selected technologies. The third data update, completed in 1996, was carried out in co-operation with environmental offices within the period 1993-1996. REZZO 3 - stationary local units for fuel combustion with small pollution sources with a total thermal output of less than 0.2 MW. This database is being annually updated with emissions calculations based on the emission factors and total fuel consumption data. REZZO 4 - mobile units, regardless of their output. The COPERT Method, recommended by 'The Convention on Long-range Transboundary Air Pollution (Geneva 1979) 'for its member states, is used for emission data calculation. Data for 1996 are available. Between 1996 and 1997, emission reductions in all fundamental polluting substances were recorded.

  • State of the Environment Report - Slovak Republic 2012
    FOREWORD FOREWORD Few people today realize that the environment is a conditioning factor for the existence of each one of us. All of its components and ecosystems influence its trend. Their situation today is changing not only within the local and regional scope, but also at the global level. Several places have shown improved quality of the environment thanks to building the environmental infrastructure. Through implementing legal, educational, economic, organisational, and other instruments we have been trying to increase environmental safety, appropriateness, loading capacity, usability, and aesthetics. These include also building flood protection facilities in areas with the highest risk of floods in Slovakia. The world is facing environmental threats of global magnitude. These include, for example, impacts provoked by the changed climate or gradual depletion of selected strategic natural resources. All of this occurs also in consequence of a continuing rise in the world´s population that exceeded the number of seven billion people. In many countries, this has spurred phenomena such as starvation, poverty, devastation of land and marine ecosystems, reduction of biodiversity, excessive exploitation of minerals, and enormous air pollution, water contamination and environmental pollution by waste. The UN Conference for sustainable development - RIO + 20 organized in Rio de Janeiro in 2012 addressed the already mentioned as well as other issues. The Conference hosted also the Slovak delegation. This global conference of the highest rank analysed the possibilities of reducing the impacts of adverse environmental situation in social and economic aspects and proposed measures for its improvement and for securing sustainable development. Following the global RIO+20 conference, the European Union prepared its 7th Environmental Action Plan by 2020 (7.

The aim of this paper is, on the basis of available data from regional databases and through the use of appropriate methodological apparatus, to draw attention to the development of Slovak regions’ structural employment proportion on the total employment according to the sectors of agriculture, industry, construction and services in the time period from 2004 to 2012. The article examined the similarity of regions in terms of structural employment through cluster analysis at NUTS 2 level. Counties are grouped into four mutually similar clusters. Keywords: employment, region, disparity The overall situation in the labour market is affected by experiencing a migration loss. On the other hand, there is the labour supply which is conditioned by development an increasing migration to the Bratislava region. Nižňanský and non-economic factors (demographic and social ones (2007) stresses that economic development and thereby in particular). Another factor affecting the labour market solution of regional disparities between regions and also situation is demand for labour, which is determined by within regions is not a task for the national governments technological and economic implications arising from the primarily.

The paper studies the impact of the flooding water on environment – water bodies, soil and other endangered values. The proposal of flood environmental impact and risk assessment index calculation includes state of environment and environmental hazards in the chosen area. Keywords: Environmental impact assessment, risk analysis, Bodva river basin, Slovakia, flood risk, sources of pollution 1 INTRODUCTION Year 2010 was in terms of precipitation extremely above average and with significantly unequal in distribution of rainfall in each month in all regions of Slovakia. These rainfall conditions had a significant impact on the environment, catchment saturation and hence the overall flood situation on extreme flows in Slovakia, also a significant increase in groundwater levels, which flooded buildings. During May and early June 2010 was abundant rainfall in many regions of Slovakia. Sub-basin Bodva struck during May and early June 2010 several waves of precipitation. On 16th May 2010 rainfall affected the entire sub-basin, gauging station Buzica referred the high of 49.1 mm.
