Chemical Wastewater Treatment Plant Project

The Croatian Government, at its session held on 24 June 2010, issued the Decision on Designation of Sensitive Areas (as published in Croatia’s official journal,

Narodne novine

, no. 81/10) on which basis the Danube River’s entire drainage basin was proclaimed a sensitive area.

On 30 June 2010, the Ministry of Regional Development, Forestry and Water Management issued the Rules on Threshold Values for Wastewater Emission (

Narodne novine

, no. 87/10) which stipulate that prior to release into waters in sensitive areas, municipal wastewater must be treated at the third degree of purification for release from agglomerations with loads exceeding 10,000 ES.

The revised Water Utility Directive Implementation Plan of November 2010 adopted by the Croatian Government stipulates a transition period for the fulfilment of the commitments specified by the Community Wastewater Treatment Directive, which requires the collection of wastewater for facilities in the Black Sea drainage basin – a sensitive zone for installations above 150,000 ERU – with more advanced treatment by the deadline of 31 December 2018.

The national water management company Hrvatske vode has granted to Zagreb Holding d.o.o. – Water Supply and Sewage Branch, and the city wastewater management company Zagrebačke otpadne vode d.o.o., a water management license for the release of wastewater from the public sewage system in the City of Zagreb with treatment at the Central Treatment Plant (CUPOVZ), whereby target deadlines.

Zagrebačke otpadne vode is obliged to undertake activities for the construction of the third treatment phase at the Plant, to be completed by 31 December 2016, for the purpose of protecting water management interests in compliance with the Program of Water Pollution Prevention Measures with The Project is nominated for funding from the EU's Structural Funds The value of this investment has been estimated at € 40 million.

Jakuševec Landfill Rehabilitation Programme

    On 18 November 1998, a Loan Agreement was concluded between the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) and ZGOS, a City-owned company, to facilitate the rehabilitation of the Prudinec / Jakuševec Landfill.

Investment value: €56 million The Prudinec waste disposal site rehabilitation project at Jakuševec is complete. All works broken down into packets have been assumed by the Investor.

Currently, within the framework of the Jakuševec/Prudinec landfill, besides the waste disposal site there are: – Construction waste recycling installation (350,000 t/yr.), – Scrap metal yard (over 3,000 t/yr.), – Discarded tyre yard (over 1,000 t/yr.).

17

The contract governing rendering of principal works and management of installations at the Jakuševec

The contractor has conducted works involving the collection and disposal of new waste. During July 2012, a total of 25,735.01 tons of new waste were disposed.

A total amount of HRK 13,615,000.00 has been planned for 2012.

18

The previous deadline was set under the assumption that a thermal waste treatment plant would be built. However, thus far waste disposal is the only long-term waste treatment measure. The quantity of waste collected within the limits of the City of Zagreb is showing a continual growth trend. The capacity of the Prudinec Landfill and its technical potential ensure the conditions for waste disposal at the newly organized operational surfaces at the site up to 31 December 2018. Depending on implementation of comprehensive waste management measures, this deadline may also be extended.
