  • Medium-Sized Towns Water Supply and Sewerage Systems in Serbia
    Medium-sized Towns Water Supply and Sewerage Systems in Serbia Project Financing MW-SER-ENV-CEB;KFW- WBIF Grant € 3,000,000 01 KFW Loan € 25,000,000 Germany (via KfW) External Grant Grant € 19,250,000 Germany (via KfW) External Grant Grant € 1,250,000 Total € 48,500,000 Total Grants € 3,000,000 Total Loans € 25,000,000 Project Description As part of a widespread effort to upgrade water supply and wastewater disposal across Serbia attention is being focused on second-tier medium-sized cities and towns. This process is being assisted with finance and support from IFIs and the WBIF. The support is helping the second stage of an existing programme: water supply and sewage disposal in medium-sized Serbian towns. This programme focuses on achieving long-term reductions in water losses, investments in water production and processing, as well as investments in the expansion of existing networks. Funds in excess of EUR 39 million will be used for investments in seven Serbian medium- sized cities and towns’ water supply and sanitation systems; these are Kraljevo, Loznica, Pancevo, Sabac, Smederevo, Sombor, and Vrsac. The programme’s selected cities, towns, and municipalities, through their respective water utilities, act as project implementation units (PIU). These PIUs are responsible for the planning and implementation of the investments. They are supported by an implementation consultant who help with planning, tendering and construction supervision. They are also supported by a consultant for technical assistance to strengthen their internal administration and commercial performance. Both consultants assist the utilities in installing management information systems (MIS), updating tariff adjustment plans, developing human resources training needs analysis in billing and collection as well as leak detection, improving public relations with customers, detecting leaks through training leakage teams and following up leak detection surveys as well as developing preventive operation and maintenance plans.

Apart from monitoring international financial institutions’ activities in Serbia, CEKOR is working on issues in the areas of transport, waste, biodiversity, genetically modified organisms (GMO) and making the city of Subotica sustainable. CEKOR is a member of CEE Bankwatch Network. Coalition for Sustainable Mining, Serbia (Koalicija za održivo rudarstvo u Srbiji – KORS) is an organisation that promotes the application of the strictest social and environmental standards for mining and mineral use in Serbia. CEE Bankwatch Network is the largest network of grassroots, environmental and human rights groups in central and eastern Europe. It monitors public finance institutions that are responsible for hundreds of billions of investments across the globe. Together with local communities and other NGOs Bankwatch works to expose their influence and provide a counterbalance to their unchecked power. About ICT and the mining-related work of CEE Bankwatch Network CEE Bankwatch Network has been monitoring mining projects in Europe and abroad for years. Bankwatch cooperates with the Make ICT Fair consortium, which seeks to reform the information and communication technology (ICT) manufacture and minerals supply chains and to improve the lives of workers and those impacted along different stages of the ICT supply chain. Our long-term cooperation with groups monitoring the impact of mining on people and environment as well as with communities directly affected by mines or smelters strengthens our conviction that the many negative impacts of mining must finally come under the proper scrutiny.

  • FLOODS SERBIA Humanitarian Situation Report 27 JUNE 2014
    SITUATION REPORT 24 JUNE 2014 FLOODS SERBIA Humanitarian Situation Report 27 JUNE 2014 HIGHLIGHTS/KEY PRORITIES: Continued rain and storms expected for the remaining days of the month. Child Friendly Spaces functional in four largest collective centers in Belgrade (Kranjača, Sajam, Lazarevac and PIM) with over 180 children benefiting on daily basis. Permission obtained from Ministry of Defense for establishment of Child Friendly Space in the collective center “Barraks” in Obrenovac (Military compound). Opening of Child Friendly Space in collective center “Barracks” planned for the end of this week Youth Activities, targeting young people from collective centers in Belgrade established in coordination with a local youth centre. A Recovery Needs Assessment (RNA) is ongoing with the full engagement of UNICEF staff and consultants in the WASH and Education sectors. Procurement procedure for 6,000 hygiene packages completed, distribution expected in the coming 2 weeks. SITUATION OVERVIEW: The floods and landslides triggered by Balkan Cyclone Tamara in May 2014 left thirty-four people in Serbia dead and almost 32,000 evacuated from their homes, 24,000 from Obrenovac only. 1 Although the majority of evacuees were accommodated with relatives, approximately 5,000 people found temporary shelter in collective centres established by the Red Cross of Serbia. The size and location of these centres has varied over the past 4 weeks, as some evacuees were able to return home and others were re-located to other sites. The current number of people in collective centers in Belgrade and Obrenovac is estimated at 1,500. The Government reported that more than 2,260 buildings were flooded, over 1,800 damaged, and more than 30,000 households left without electricity.

  • The Hydrogeothermal Model of Macva
    THE HYDROGEOTHERMAL MODEL OF MACVA Mica Martinovic1 and Mihailo Milivojevic1 1Faculty of mining and geology, Djusina 7, Beograd, Yugoslavia Keywords: Yugoslavia, Serbia, Macva, geothermal, the economic blockade of Serbia and Yugoslavia. hydrogeothermal system. 2. GEOLOGICAL SETTING ABSTRACT The paleorelief of the Pannonian Basin has many shallow and Macva is an agricultural region of about 800 square kilometers deep depressions filled with Neogene and Quaternary in surface area about 80 kilometers west of Belgrade. sediments. Macva is situated over one of the depressions. Geologically, it is on the southern margin of the Pannonian Regional geophysical data indicate southern Macva as the Basin. Geothermal anomalies in Neogene sediments and deepest depression area. The greatest thickness of Neogene and previous hydrogeothermal investigations indicate thermal water- Quaternary deposits in it is about 1500 meters, and the smallest bearing Triassic limestone beneath Neogene sediments about 200 meters in central Macva. Neogene and Quaternary throughout the whole Macva region. The highest measured sediments are alternating gravels, sands, and clays. The temperature is 78 oC at a depth of 610 meters in Triassic paleorelief of Neogene sediments in Macva was discovered only limestone. The highest temperature expected in the aquifer on in 1981, when the first geothermal well BD-1 was drilled (Fig. the basis of hydrochemical geothermometers, is about 100-110 2). At the well site, the paleorelief is composed of karstified oC. Natural conditions in Macva are favorable for intensive Middle Triassic limestones more than 200 meters thick. exploitation of geothermal energy. Based on the local geology, Karstified limestones of the Middle and Upper Triassic were hydrogeological and hydrothermal characteristics, the calculated found in boreholes BB-1 and BB-2 at Bogatic, and Triassic thermal power potential of the Macva region is approximately dolomite in BBe-1 at Belotic.
