Methodology for strategic environmental assessment of the spatial plan of the Republic of Serbia

Abstract

Development of Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA) for the Spatial Plan of the Republic Serbia (SPRS) was methodologically complex and demanding process. For its an efficient production is needed, first prepare the basis of quality programming that have been determined in detail the important issues of the role and effectiveness of strategic assessment. SPRS is directing spatial development for the period until 2021., and significant because it provides SEA assessing the environmental impact of strategic development documents of the highest hierarchical levels of decision making and test planning solutions in terms of environmental protection while respecting the provisions of EU Directive on SEA. Assessing the impact of planning decisions on the environment was made through qualitative analysis and evaluation of potential impacts, in order to determine the significance of the impact, resulting in the summary prepared a matrix of environmental impact.

Izrada strateške procene uticaja (SPU) na životnu sredinu Prostornog plana Republike Srbije (PPRS) bio je složen i metodološki zahtevan proces. Za njenu efikasnu izradu bila je potrebna najpre priprema kvalitetnih programskih osnova kojima su detaljno bila utvrđena značajna pitanja uloge i efikasnosti strateške procene. PPRS se usmerava na prostorni razvoj za period do 2021. godine, pa je SPU značajna jer obezbeđuje procenjivanje uticaja na životnu sredinu strateških razvojnih dokumenata na najvišim hijerarhijskim nivoima odlučivanja i proverava planska rešenja sa aspekta zaštite životne sredine a poštujući odredbe EU Direktive o SPU. Procena uticaja planskih rešenja na životnu sredinu izvršena je putem kvalitativne analize i evaluacije mogućih uticaja, sa ciljem da se utvrdi značaj uticaja, na osnovu čega je pripremljena zbirna matrica uticaja na životnu sredinu.
