Opis (eng)

This research offers an overview of the requirements outlined in the relevant Serbian legislative framework, aiming to define the legal obligations of waste owners in construction and demolition activities, particularly in light of recent regulatory updates in this field. This paper outlines the necessary steps within the environmentally friendly and responsible handling of construction and demolition waste. The legal requirements for construction and demolition waste producers include the development of a waste management plan, obtaining approval for the plan, and organizing its implementation. The waste owner’s responsibilities, including sorting, collection, storage, record-keeping, transport, disposal, and waste testing, are thoroughly discussed, with a particular emphasis on ensuring that hazardous construction waste is separated on-site. The study also examines the obligations of project investors and contractors to maintain records, submit required documentation to competent authorities, and adhere to environmental protection measures during the construction or demolition process. The costs that the waste owner is responsible for, including those related to the treatment, recycling, and disposal of construction and demolition waste are also outlined. The importance of regulating the construction and demolition waste sector in Serbia lies in ensuring adherence to the waste management hierarchy, which promotes waste prevention, reduction, and recycling, thus minimizing environmental impacts. Proper registration and compliance with these regulations are essential for efficient waste management and the sustainable development of the country’s infrastructure. Lastly, the research emphasizes the importance of proper waste management in construction projects for ensuring compliance with Serbian environmental regulations and promoting sustainable construction practices. Through the analysis of the legislative framework and practical obligations in managing construction and demolition waste, the paper aims to improve waste management practices and ensure that waste producers minimize their environmental impact.
