TRANSPORT OF DANGEROUS GOODS AND RISK MANAGEMENT 2INTRODUCTIONThe primary goal <strong>of</strong> technological development project research is dealing with problems arising from vesselexploitation waste substances.The data from scientific references indicate that there are certain results from fragmentary research , which arechiefly related to the categorization <strong>of</strong> vessel waste substances, the environmental consequences <strong>of</strong> their outflowinto the water stream <strong>and</strong> the preparation <strong>of</strong> Plans for vessel waste substances <strong>management</strong>. However, the results <strong>of</strong>systematic <strong>and</strong> comprehensive scientific-research approach to the solution to the above mention problem aremissing. The European project WANDA (initiated by Austrian Ministry <strong>of</strong> Transport, Innovation <strong>and</strong> Technology)includes the development <strong>of</strong> system models for collecting ship waste for internal sailing (from 2007 to 2013)with the participation <strong>of</strong> the Danube valley countries. For that reason, the Danube Commission wants all theinterested Danube valley countries to send their suggestions as for the solution to this urgent problem <strong>of</strong> thenavigation corridor VII <strong>and</strong> send their experts to take an active part in meetings ‘Ship Exploitation Waste’ that areorganized in Budapest each year.The researches <strong>of</strong> technological development project have been Serbian representatives in these meeting in the lasttwo years, where three papers with projects findings were presented. Attending these meetings enabled us to put theresults <strong>of</strong> the technological development project at disposal to the international expert group <strong>and</strong> regional countries.Serbian Government Project (TR-21037) is more comprehensive projects than the European project <strong>and</strong> it involvesthe <strong>management</strong> <strong>of</strong> all types <strong>of</strong> ship waste substances <strong>and</strong> <strong>of</strong> the <strong>management</strong> <strong>of</strong> all activities, from theannouncement <strong>of</strong> waste substances transfer by the navigator to their acceptance, treatment, storage or disposal atriver terminal locations, industrial facilities or river bank waste piles. Besides, our project includes the problemsolution <strong>of</strong> solid waste substances pollution <strong>and</strong> raft-clubs’ <strong>and</strong> anchored ships’ waste waters as well as thepollution from amortized vessels.Additional contribution <strong>of</strong> our project is the module for efficient response <strong>of</strong> emergency teams in the event <strong>of</strong> anaccident due to small or massive outflow <strong>of</strong> hazardous waste substances in a river, locations <strong>of</strong> specialized riverterminals for waste disposal, river bank industrial facilities or along <strong>transport</strong> infrastructure during <strong>transport</strong> <strong>of</strong> thesubstances to the operator’s plant for the sake <strong>of</strong> their storage or treatment. All the modules <strong>and</strong> individual modelsfor the <strong>management</strong> <strong>of</strong> particular types <strong>of</strong> waste substances from active <strong>and</strong> amortized ships are a part <strong>of</strong> anintegrated model for monitoring <strong>and</strong> <strong>management</strong> <strong>of</strong> waste substances course, both in normal or emergencysituations in real time <strong>and</strong> space by the help <strong>of</strong> modern GPS <strong>and</strong> GPRS devices <strong>and</strong> GIS technologies.The advantage <strong>of</strong> the integrated model that we called ‘The Star’ is manifested in its multi-functionality <strong>and</strong>universality, since it can be applied for monitoring, coordination <strong>and</strong> briefing in the field <strong>of</strong> numerous activitiesrelated to the <strong>management</strong> <strong>of</strong> ship exploitation waste substances <strong>and</strong> different types <strong>of</strong> their <strong>transport</strong>. Owing to as<strong>of</strong>tware application, which has been developed in cooperation with a project participant, the monitoring <strong>of</strong> shipwaste substances course has been enabled, as a part <strong>of</strong> both domestic <strong>and</strong> international river navigation on screens atthe Center for Water Navigation Monitoring, as well as the control <strong>of</strong> the behavior <strong>of</strong> navigators <strong>and</strong> economicentities that will deal with <strong>management</strong> <strong>of</strong> this kind <strong>of</strong> waste.Thus, timely information on potential <strong>of</strong>fences <strong>of</strong> all participants in the system <strong>of</strong> waste <strong>management</strong> as well as theaccidents are collected, which will provide the necessary information for taking effective steps against entities thatbreak the necessary procedures during the waste treatment, or a speedy, proactive response in case <strong>of</strong> an accidentalong a waterway or l<strong>and</strong> roads.
