How is the INSTRUMENT
applied to solve City environmental problems?
The Slovak Republic has created a system of
environmental legislation (60 acts and more than 800 implementary
regulations). The legal protection is related to all areas of the
environment, but in practical life they are not enforced completely.
For instance, there was amended The Waste Management Act.
The objectives in care of the environment, which
are established in the ”Košice Health Plan” are related to the areas
as follows:
- To protect air in Košice against
pollutants
- To ensure the sufficient quantity of
drinking water for Košice and to reduce pollution of water (for
drinking and recreational purposes) under allowed limit.
- To minimize the origin of wastes, to
utilize and correctly dispose wastes of all types.
- To ensure more lawns, vegetation and
parks in the city.
- To pay increased attention to housing and
transport.
- To eliminate other hazardous factors,
which mean potential endangerment of health
- To assert industrial health and safety.
