Impact of environmental pollution on human health Session I: Policy relevant indicators Through implementation of activities given in the NEAP, Bosnia and Herzegovina, as a part of international community, needs to take over its share of the responsibility for solving global ecologic problems such as climate changes, damages to the ozone layer, degradation of water resources, protection of biodiversity. Impact of environmental pollution on human health Session I: Policy relevant indicators In NEAP two of the priority measures are: the introduction of a comprehensive monitoring system in BiH”; “the establishment of a central data base, training of personnel and improvement of the existing communication with the European Environmental Agency (EEA/EIONET)” Session II: Available CSIs Fisheries CSI 033 Aquaculture production Yes partially CSI 034 Fishing fleet capacity Yes partially CSI 032 Yes partially Terrestrial CSI 014 Land take Yes partially CSI 015 Progress in management of contaminated sites (problems) no information now Session II: Available CSIs (continuation) Transport CSI 036 Freight transport demand Yes partially CSI 035 Passenger transport demand Yes partially CIS 037 Use of cleaner and alternative fuels No (not existing) Waste CSI 017 Generation and recycling of packaging waste No (lack of waste classification) CSI 016 Municipal waste generation Yes partially Session II: Available CSIs (continuation) Water CSI 022 Bathing water quality Yes partially (only data for Adriatic sea) CSI 023 Chlorophyll in transitional, coastal and marine waters Yes partially (only for transitional waters) CSI 020 Nutrients in freshwater Yes partially (calculation) CSI 021 Nutrients in transitional, coastal and marine waters Yes partially (calculation) CSO 019 Oxygen consuming substances in rivers Yes CSI 024 Urban waste water treatment No data CSI 018 Use of freshwater resources Yes partially Session II: Overlapping with national priorities climate changes, damages to the ozone layer, degradation of water resources, protection of biodiversity. Impact of environmental pollution on human health Session II: Policy relevant indicators In NEAP two of the priority measures are: •the introduction of a comprehensive monitoring system in BiH”; •“the establishment of a central data base, training of personnel and improvement of the existing communication with the European Environmental Agency (EEA/EIONET)” Presentation by Mr. Martin Tais [email protected] Session I: Policy relevant indicators AGRICULTURE - Legal Framework RS Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Water Resources for spring, still, running, underground, precipitation, thermal and mineral waters; plans and basis; water balance; plan of protection of waters from pollution; protection from destructive effects of water; taking and usage of waters; water quality control; providing water for water supply needs of population and industry[1]. [1] Law on the Ministries of the RS 70/02 art. 12 FBiH Ministry for Agriculture, Water and Forestry is in charge of all administrative, professional and other activities related to protection and use of agricultural land, protection of agricultural plans and products, production and market of seeds and seed material, …, water sources, plans, basic and water balances, use of water, water supply for population and industry, inspection supervision in area of agriculture, water resources and forestry[1]. [1] Law on Federation Ministries and other bodies of Federation administration, 58/02 art. 19 Session I: Policy relevant indicators AIR -Legal Framework The entity Laws on Air Protection recently adopted, in 2002 for RS and 2003 for FBiH, provides the frame for air quality and emission monitoring. Law on Air Protection RS 53/02 art. 27 – FBiH 33/03 art. 28 Law on Air Protection RS 53/02 art. 31 – FBiH 33/03 art. 32 Law on Air Protection RS 53/02 art. 11a – FBiH 33/03 art.12 Framework Law on Environmental Protection RS 53/02 art. 28 – FBiH 33/03 art. 26 Session II: Policy relevant indicators Air emissions ( Climat changes ) - Legal Framework The frame for establishing air emission monitoring, at least for stationary sources, is also defined in the Framework Laws on the Environmental Protection International Conventions United Nations Framework Convention and Climate Change (UNFCCC) BiH accessed this United Nations Framework Convention and Climate Change (UNFCCC) in 2000. Based on a mutual agreement of both relevant Ministries, the BiH focal point for UNFCCC is the RS Ministry in charge of the Environment The Kyoto protocol has not been signed yet. Vienna Convention for the Protection of the Ozone Layer BiH became party to this convention as well as to the Montreal protocol through succession of former Yugoslavia. The focal point is located in the MOFTER. Convention on Long-range Transboundary Air Pollution BiH became party to this convention as well as to the EMEP protocol through succession from former Yugoslavia. Session II: Policy relevant indicators Terrestrial Environment National Legislation Specific law related to soil protection in Bosnia and Herzegovina does not exist. The lack of legal basis for sustainable soil and soil quality protection is clearly visible. Currently there are no specific laws, neither at BiH nor entity-level that directly addresses protection of soil. Problem of land degradation and desertification to various degrees is addressed by the Entities through adoption of different legal documents as. The entity Framework Law on the Environmental Protection (RS OG 53/02; FBIH SG 33/03) The FBiH Law on Water (FBiH OG 18/98) The RS Law on Water (RS OG 10/98) The Law on Communal Service The Law on Spatial Planning International conventions and protocols UN Convention to Combat Désertification (CCD) Session II: Policy relevant indicators Water National legislation Key pieces of legislation relevant to water resources are the Water Law (RS OG 10/98; FBiH 18/98), and the Laws on Water Protection (RS OG 53/02; FBiH SG 33/03). International conventions and protocolsConvention on the Prevention of Marine Pollution by Dumping of Wastes and Other Matter (LONDON) Accepted by succession and confirmed in RBiH Official Gazette on the 12 Jan 1994. Convention on the Law of the Sea (MONTEGY BAY) Accepted by succession and confirmed in RBiH Official Gazette on the 12 Jan 1994. Convention for the Protection of the Mediterranean Sea against Pollution (BARCELONA) Accepted by succession and confirmed in RBiH Official Gazette on the 01 March 1992. Convention on the Protection and Use of Transboundary Watercourses and International Lakes (UN ECE Convention). (HELSINKI). Convention is recommended for ratification. The Regional Convention on Cooperation for the Protection and Sustainable Use of the Danube River (Danube Regional Protection Convention-DRPC) (SOFIA) Convention is in procedure. The Framework Agreement on the Sava River Basin and the Protocol on the Navigation Regime (KRANJSKA GORA) Convention is ratified. Session II: Policy relevant indicators Waste National legislation The entity Law on Waste Management (RS OG 53/02; FBIH 33/03) in its scope covers all kind of the waste management activities about all waste categories with the exception of atmospheric emissions and waste water, covered by their respective laws (cf. Air and Water). Radioactive wastes are also excluded from the scope of the law[1]. [1] Law on Waste Management RS 53/02 art. 3; FBiH 33/03 art. 3 International conventions and protocols Convention on the Control of Transboundary Movements of Hazardous Wastes and their Disposal (Basel convention) Ratified in 2000.
