📋 Tender Overview
The Minister of Environmental Protection, Sara Pavkov, visited Slatina today where, at the request of the citizens, in cooperation with the Environmental Protection Agency, a mobile automatic measuring station was installed, which will monitor the air quality in this area in real time. Pavkov emphasized that the installation of the automatic measuring station is very important for the control and improvement of air quality in the Bor area, and that at this moment all residents of Slatina and citizens of Bor can follow and see the measurement results on the website of the Environmental Protection Agency. Citizens are important to us, and that is why we installed a mobile automatic measuring station in the center of Slatina at their request. Until now, there was a measuring station in Slatina that only measured sulfur dioxide, which has been completely remediated from 2018 to 2025, and there are no exceedances of the average annual values because a desulfurization system has been implemented. From now on, the new automatic measuring station will measure a much larger number of parameters: PM2.5 and PM10 particles, ozone, carbon monoxide, nitrogen dioxide, sulfur dioxide, and benzene. After Belgrade, Bor is the city that is best covered by measuring stations, which is another proof of how dedicated the Ministry is to controlling air quality in this part of Serbia, said Pavkov. The Minister also visited JKP Treci Oktobar, to which she presented a completely new garbage truck and equipment for waste collection in order to further improve the waste management system in the Bor area, announcing that they will soon receive another batch. In Bor, continuous work is being done on balancing sustainable development and environmental protection, that is, on green mining. So far, companies have invested more than 400 million dollars in specific environmental protection measures, 1.3 million trees have been planted, around 1,000 tons of non-hazardous waste have been properly treated, and more than 4,000 tons of hazardous waste have been managed, emphasized Pavkov. The city of Bor is a true example that Serbia is on the right path and is implementing European laws in practice! In the city park, there are beehives, which is the best confirmation of the current state in the city of Bor - where bees thrive, the ecosystem is good, and people do not have to worry!
