Like the previous two books, Corruption, Power, State III does not include all the activi- ties of the Anti-Corruption Council, but rather a selection of key anal- yses and recommendations made by the Council from 2007 to 2011. Part I of the book includes the most signifi cant papers presented at the Belgrade Transparency Days 2007 conference, organized by the Council in cooperation with the Swiss Embassy in Belgrade and the Basel Institute on Governance, which secured the participation of the most eminent European experts in transparency of public fi nance. Th e aim of the conference was to point out the importance of an independ- ent state audit institution. Th e Law on the State Audit Institution was adopted on 14 No- vember 2005, and its application was to begin within a period of six months from its adoption. However, by March 2007, when the Council organized the Belgrade Transparency Days 2007, the State Audit Insti- tution had not started its work. Th at is why the Council organized this conference, where it was pointed out how an independent state audit institution is important for fi ghting corruption. Th e papers of the for- eign and domestic experts presented at this conference are still topi- cal today, as the State Audit Institution still does not perform its basic function. We also want to take this opportunity to express our special grat- itude to his excellence, Swiss ambassador Mr. Wilhelm Meier as, if it had not been for his eff ort and travail, the Belgrade Transparency Days 2007 conference would not have been held at all. Th e conference was the result of continuous help provided to the Anti-Corruption Council by the Swiss Embassy and Mr. Meier, and their help in the creation of the environment for the establishment and work of anti-corruption in- stitutions in Serbia. A year before, in 2006, the Anti-Corruption Coun- 10 Anti-corruption Council of the Government of the Republic of Serbia cil and the Swiss Embassy, also in cooperation with the Basel Institute on Governance, had organized the international conference, Belgrade Anti-Corruption Days. Part II of the book includes several of the most signifi cant re- ports in which, aft er months-long comprehensive research, the Coun- cil revealed drastic phenomena of the systemic corruption in Serbia. Th ese are the reports on the Horgosh – Pozega highway concession, C- Market privatization, Luka Beograd ownership concentration, Novosti privatization, pressures on and control of the media in Serbia, the sale of Delta Maxi, and the analyses of the Law on Protection of Competi- tion and the Regulation on the Criteria and Procedure for Calculation of Compensation for Conversion of the Rights for Persons Entitled to the Conversion against Compensation. Th e steps that must be taken in order to establish an independ- ent state audit institution, which have not yet been taken even six years aft er the adoption of the Law on the State Audit Institution, together with the analysis of the phenomena of the systemic corruption and its serious negative consequences, provide an answer to the question why and to what extent Serbia is still, in this year, 2011, engulfed in corrup- tion. In order that the problem of corruption in Serbia be presented vividly, Predrag Koraksic Corax has, in his own distinctive and master- ful way, illustrated the book, and we sincerely thank him for that. Verica Barac Anti-Corruption Council President Република Србија ВЛАДА РЕПУБЛИКЕ СРБИЈЕ САВЕТ ЗА БОРБУ ПРОТИВ КОРУПЦИЈЕ 72 Број: 06-1537/2007 Београд, 12. марта 2007. године CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS FROM THE CONFERENCE BELGRADE TRANSPARENCY DAYS 2007 Serbia is one of the few countries in the world still without the external state audit of the public fi nances. Th e Law on the State Audit Institution was adopted on November 14, 2005. In accordance with the Law the Institution should have been established within six months from the date of its entering into eff ect. Th e Law on the State Audit In- stitution, however, has not yet been implemented. Due to such circum- stances, the Anti-Corruption Council in cooperation with the Swiss Embassy in Belgrade, and the Basel Institute on Governance organized a Conference Belgrade Transparency Days on March 6 and 7, 2007, discussing the issues of the budget transparency and the state audit. Th e Supreme Audit Institutions are designed to enable the tran- sparency and the integrity of the reports on public fi nances, repre- senting a crucial link in the chain of institutions destined to create conditions for curbing corruption in the public fi nances. Two-day’s Conference Belgrade Transparency Days 2007, tried to consolidate the principles for the establishment of the effi cient and sustainable State Audit Institution in Serbia. Conclusions Th e potential impact of the State Audit Institution on the fi ght against corruption is manifold: 12 Anti-corruption Council of the Government of the Republic of Serbia – Th e chief task of the State Audit Institution (SAI) is to raise the transparency level as well as the integrity of the reports on public fi nances, which represents a key element of anticorrup- tion initiatives, above all in the fi eld of prevention of corrup- tion and detection of the corruptive mechanisms; – Th e professional quality of the SAI could enhance the profes- sional level of other public institutions; – If SAI is to be established in a corruption free fashion, and governed by laws and the Constitution of the Republic of Ser- bia, it may, in that sense, serve as an example for other state establishments; – Th e results of the SAI’s work may off er a signifi cant backup for the judiciary and the National Assembly in control of the work of the executive power; – Creating conditions for the transparency of public institutions, being one of the most important SAI’s tasks should strengthen the role of the public in the control of the authorities and the fi ght against corruption.

    UNDERGROUND MINING ENGINEERING 34 (2019) 59-76 UDK 62 UNIVERSITY OF BELGRADE - FACULTY OF MINING AND GEOLOGY ISSN 03542904 Original scientific paper 2D GEOELECTRICAL RESISTIVITY TOMOGRAPHY APPLICATION AT THE FORMER CITY WASTE DUMP “ADA HUJA” – ECO - GEOLOGICAL PROBLEM Branislav Sretenović1, Filip Arnaut1, Ivana Vasiljević1, Vesna Cvetkov1 Received: April 18, 2019 Accepted: June 3, 2019 Abstract: Rapid yearly technology development has enabled the possibility of renewing already acquisitioned data using new and improved software capabilities. The potential to gather 3D inversion results from 2D acquisitioned data is one of many new software options that were not available twenty years ago. Data obtained by ground penetrating radar (GPR) using 500 MHz and 300 MHz frequencies were used to confirm information attained by electrical resistivity tomography, hence the GPR survey was only conducted on a small portion of one profile line. Suitable location of the former communal waste site “Ada Huja” and the degree of possible environmental pollution are one of many reasons why it was crucial to reinterpret the 2D inversion data. Two decades after the initial scanning the data was used to solve the eco-geological problem which is a side effect of the decade long disposal and non-aiding of the communal waste dump. Keywords: 2D inversion; geoelectrical method; Wenner array; ecology; Ada Huja 1 INTRODUCTION The location of the former city waste dump “Ada Huja” was labeled as IBA (Important Bird Area), where refuge was found by some endangered species of birds like the black- headed seagull, big and small cormorant and the white-tailed eagle. Ada Huja, which is located only 4 km from the city center of Belgrade, was under the supervision from the former Federal executive council of SFRY and declared a communal waste dump in the year 1960.

The story in which a city begins is most frequently a part of a myth. The myth is the very beginning of everything, the basis of civilisation. How does a city come to be? Where is it conceived? In which civilizational moment of the development of society does it take over the function of the city and how is it different compared to lower rank settlements? Why does it arise on rivers and in vales and why does it last through time? What is determined by and what does it anticipate itself, as the amalgam of things, occurences and influences? At the beginning of the 3rd millenium just like at the beginning of the 20th century Belgrade is dealing with huge urbanistic issues. It came to be as a city on the collision of alluvial planes, on the hill above the position where the river Sava flows into the Danube and it represents the „gates of the Balkans“ as well as the „gates of Central Europe“ with which it is connected via the most significant European waterway.
