This permit – the Hazardous waste export permit (No. 19-00-00982/2015-16) is attached to this report. Based on the inspection of the documentation and records provided by the operator Kemis Ltd. from Valjevo (Serbia), it was established that based on the export permit No. 18-00-00982/2015-16 of 25th October 2016, the export of waste pesticide known under a tradename Furadan (Carbofuran), index number 07 04 08 *, in a total quantity of 25.78 tons was carried out. Given that the quantity of stocks of pesticides to be exported from Serbia was established, the operator KEMIS Ltd. from Valjevo has submitted a new request No. 19-00-00339/2017-16 of 24. 05./2017 for the export of hazardous waste - inorganic pesticides and organic solvents in the quantity of 100 tons to Austria. The relevant procedure is currently in progress. 5. ROTTERDAM CONVENTION Carbofuran, classified among pesticides, is a banned active substance in the Republic of Serbia (Decision No. 321-01-2585/2013-11 of 31 December 2013) according to the Law on Plant Protection Products (“Official Gazette of the RS”, No. 41/09) and the List of Approved Substances (“Official Gazette of the RS”, No. 107/15). The production, import, placing on the market or use of Carbofuran on the territory of the Republic of Serbia has been banned since 31st December 2013. Moreover, Carbofuran is on the List of chemicals subject to notification procedure and the List of chemicals subject to prior informed consent procedure (PIC procedure) of the Rulebook on the import and export оf certain hazardous chemicals (“Official Gazette of the RS”, No. 89/10 and 15/13), in accordance with the Rotterdam Convention on the Prior Informed Consent Procedure for Certain Hazardous Chemicals and Pesticides in International Trade with amendments (“Official Gazette of the RS – International Agreements”, No. 38/09). At the 8th Meeting of the Conference of the Parties to the Rotterdam Convention (of 2009) held from 24th April to 5th 2017 a decision to list Carbofuran as pesticide in Annex III of the Rotterdam Convention was adopted. Аnnex III consists of chemicals which when imported are subject to prior informed consent procedure. Including carbofuran in Annex III of the Rotterdam Convention was supported by the Republic of Serbia. This means that all Parties to the Convention will have to comply with the obligation, coming into force in a year from now, to respect the response (whether it approves or not) of another Party regarding the future import of that chemical. Previously, this obligation applied only to countries that were implementing provisions of the EU Regulation 649/2012 on the T-PVS/Files (2017) 8 - 4 - import and export of hazardous chemicals. So far, the Republic of Serbia has not received any request for approval of the import or export of Carbofuran. 6.

  • Remote Sensing Analyses on Sentinel-2 Images: Looking for Roman Roads in Srem Region (Serbia)
    Article Remote Sensing Analyses on Sentinel-2 Images: Looking for Roman Roads in Srem Region (Serbia) Sara Zanni 1 and Alessandro De Rosa 2,* 1 Domaine Universitaire, Maison de l’Archéologie, Institut Ausonius (UMR 5607), Université Bordeaux Montaigne, 8 Esplanade des Antilles, 33600 Pessac, France; [email protected] 2 Independent Researcher, via XXV Aprile 16, 87053 Celico CS, Italy * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 25 November 2018; Accepted: 28 December 2018; Published: 5 January 2019 Abstract: The present research is part of the project “From Aquileia to Singidunum: reconstructing the paths of the Roman travelers—RecRoad”, developed at the Université Bordeaux Montaigne, thanks to a Marie Skłodowska-Curie fellowship. One of the goals of the project was to detect and reconstruct the Roman viability between the Roman cities of Aquileia (Aquileia, Italy) and Singidunum (Belgrade, Serbia), using different sources and methods, one of which is satellite remote sensing. The research project analyzed and combined several data, including images produced by the Sentinel-2 mission, funded by the European Commission Earth Observation Programme Copernicus, in which satellites were launched between 2015 and 2017. These images are freely available for scientific and commercial purposes, and constitute a constantly updated gallery of the whole planet, with a revisit time of five days at the Equator. The technical specifications of the satellites’ sensors are particularly suitable for archaeological mapping purposes, and their capacities in this field still need to be fully explored. The project provided a useful testbed for the use of Sentinel-2 images in the archaeological field. The study compares traditional Vegetation Indices with experimental trials on Sentinel images applied to the Srem District in Serbia.

ROMANIA Belgrade CROATS IN BACKA, SRIJEM AND BANAT (VOJVODINA) POSITION OF CROATS IN VOJVODINA REGARDING THEIR CULTURAL, POLITICAL, AND OTHER FUNDAMENTAL AND HUMAN RIGHTS Introduction As a result of the Croats in Vojvodina being deprived of their rights and the assimilatory policies which have calculatedly been implemented for over 70 years, the Croatian population has constantly been in decline. The war against Croatia and the destruction the war has caused directly reflect upon the status of Croats in Vojvodina. All too often they are insulted and taunted. They are attacked through public media, the Croatian media are blocked, they are mistreated by Serbian government authorities and rendered powerless in all areas of public life. Croatian cultural and historic monuments are being destroyed (Baa, Subotica, among others), and Croatian homes in Novi Slankamen have been blasted by machine gun fire, besides a whole line of similar occurrences. With that kind of politics, Serbia, especially after the cessation of the constitutional autonomy of Vojvodina, would like to destroy the will of the Croats to live in the areas of Barka, Banat, and Srijem, where Croats had already been living for thirteen hundred years.

  • Human Rights Abuses of Non-Serbs in Kosovo, Sand“Ak and Vojvodina1
    May 1994 Vol. 6, Issue 6 Human Rights Abuses of Non-Serbs In Kosovo, Sandñññak and Vojvodina1 With the world's attention distracted by events in Bosnia-Hercegovina, Serbian and Montenegrin authorities have stepped up oppression of non-Serbs in Serbia and Montenegro. In particular, incidents of police abuse, arbitrary arrests and abuse in detention have been prevalent in the three regions of Serbia and Montenegro in which non-Serbs constitute a majority or significant minority: Kosovo (a province of Serbia which is 90 percent ethnic Albanian), Sandñak (a region of Serbia and Montenegro which is over 50 percent Muslim) and Vojvodina (a province of Serbia which is approximately 19 percent ethnic Hungarian, 5.4 percent Croat and 3.4 percent Slovak).2 The governments of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia3 and Serbia have done little or nothing to curb human rights abuses in their own territory. Instead, the authorities have at times directly participated in the abuse C through direction, control and support of the police, army, paramilitary, and judiciary C and, at other times, condoned the abuse by failing to investigate and prosecute cases of abuse by armed civilians and paramilitary squads. 1 This statement was submitted to the Conference on Security and Cooperation in Europe on May 6, 1994. 2 Note that approximately 8 percent of Vojvodina's population identified themselves as "Yugoslav" in the 1991 census. 3 "Yugoslavia" refers to the self-proclaimed Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, the union of Serbia (including the provinces of Vojvodina and Kosovo) and Montenegro. Although claiming successor status to the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (SFRY), the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia has not been internationally recognized as a successor state to the SFRY.

  • Functional Area of Belgrade and Its Impact on Vital Component in the Example of Settlements in the Municipality of Stara Pazova
    GEOGRAPHICAL INSTITUTE “JOVAN CVIJIC” SASA COLLECTION OF PAPERS NO 56 YEAR 2007 911.3:314.8(497.11) Dragana Matijevic∗ FUNCTIONAL AREA OF BELGRADE AND ITS IMPACT ON VITAL COMPONENT IN THE EXAMPLE OF SETTLEMENTS IN THE MUNICIPALITY OF STARA PAZOVA Abstract: One has not still investigated the functional area of Belgrade sufficiently in a domain of domestic urban geography. For that reason, this paper analyzes the territory of the municipality of Stara Pazova as a part of Belgrade functional area, which does not belong to it administratively but connects the main city by firm spatial-functional interactions. The mentioned territory will be analyzed from the aspect of demographic development, i.e. in the example of population growth trend. The negative trend has characterized the dynamics of the vital element development for almost several years. However, even with the declining trend, the natural development of the population on the territory of the municipality of Stara Pazova differentiated in comparison with the remaining parts of Srem and Voivodina, owing to the late phenomenon of negative natural development of the population. Such legality of biological component development firmly connects the geographic legalities of the location and gravitation. The mentioned researches should point out if the territories belonging to the functional area of some town settlements represent the places of the demographic polarization, concentration and territories also differing from the areas that do not belong to the functional area of a town, according to the indicators of the vital trends. The results of the researches should confirm the thesis that urban regions represent relevant factors of the demographic polarity.
