Project on environmental improvement cooperation between Serbia and the Dutch DCMR environmental protection agency is successful
In 2009, Netherlands and Serbia have cooperated in a project, sponsored by the Dutch government. In this project the Dutch partners assisted the Serbian experts with an EU law for industry, the law on integrated pollution prevention and control.
The Dutch and Serbian experts have discussed the EU requirements for industry. Serbian industry has started to work and to invest to get to the expected EU level. This level should be reached before 2015. The Dutch partner, DCMR environmental protection agency has a large experience in improving the environmental performance of industry in the Port of Rotterdam. This experience was of immediate practical use for the Serbian permittors and inspectors. The project was a great success, mainly due to the hard work of the IPPC department of the Ministry of Environment Protection.
On the 11th of December all project results were presented in a workshop. In this meeting representatives of companies and governmental organisation discussed the IPPC permits for Serbian companies. The Ministry of Environment and the company EPS presented their joined work on preparing the first IPPC permit.
