Renewables and Environmental Regulatory Institute (RERI) has submitted the initiative to the Ministry of construction, transport and infrastructure, to annul a construction permit for small hydropower plant „Topli Dol 1“, which the Ministry had issued on August 23rd, 2017, to the investor „Gornjak“ Ltd from Belgrade.
RERI has decided on this step considering new facts which indicates that construction of the SHPP Topli Dol 1 would permanently violate protected natural good and wildlife.
We expect that the responsible ministry will act upon request without delay and show that it is capable to apply the law and ensure consistent protection of the rights of all citizens of the Republic of Serbia.
