Bacteriological examination have been carried out within the comprehensive hydrochemical and hydrobiological investigation of river Koselska during 2002. The aim of investigations is to confirm condition of bacteriological communities and water quality of river Koselska. The results of investigations shows pollution by organic matter. In order to prevent further eutrophication processes, certain measures of river water protection and conservation should be undertaken. Also, the regular monitoring of water quality should be established.

The area of Zidine is located southwest of Belgrade, Serbia&Montenegro, in the sanitary protection zone of the existing Belgrade water source. This potential water source is capable of yielding water of better quality than that of the existing raw groundwater, for final treatment plants at Bezanija and Banovo Brdo. In view of available capacities of these plants and the raw water system, the water disposal issue is practically resolved and the water source is also highly advantageous in economic terms. Two options of preliminary treatment after settling were considered: sand filters and microfilters.

During the period February 1999 - February 2000 samples of water taken monthly from the area before the outflow of river Crn Drim from the Lake Ohrid, in purpose of qualitative and quantitative investigation of phytoplankton community. During the period of investigation, the phytoplankton community was characterized by forms of Cyanophyta, Bacillariophyta, Chlorophyta, Chrysophyta, Pyrrophyta and Euglenophyta. Qualitative analysis indicated that algae of the division Chlorophyta and Bacillariophyta are dominant in the phytoplankton, while the results of the qualitative analysis showed that forms of Bacillariophyta are dominant. Seasonal dynamics of phytoplankton is characterized by autumnal and winter domination of Bacillariophyta, spring maximum of Chrysophyta and summer domination of Pyrrophyta. The total number of algae varied between 1500-95,700 ind/l in August and February 2000, respectively.

The paper gives the contribute to analyses of the problem of Crnojevica river (Montenegro, Serbia&Montenegro) water pollution. The analyze surround measurement the next parameters: pH, conductivity, oxygen balance, sanitary parameters, content of different form of phosphorus. These measurements are carried out over five sampling series, at the seven stations, including underground flow rate in the Obod cave. Our estimations are confirmed the continuity of the Crnojevica river pollution, by municipality and strain water from Cetinje urban area. Nutrients, especially phosphates, from the pollution emission, attend conditions (together with many natural factors) for production biomass quantity. The opposite processes, the inhibition processes, exist. Phosphorus in the water attends increase level of the water pollution (over increase eutrophication degree), so the water is out of the legal class, because its usage is limited.

This paper presents longtime (1986-2001) researches waste waters quality from "Djuka Dinic" tanery, Nis (Serbia, Serbia&Montenegro), as well as their influence to recipients (municipal sewers and the Nisava river).Needed grades of purification of relevant pollutants to recipient are defined as well as schematic possible solutions for waste water purification. The most optimal solution for purification of waste water from tanery from "Djuka Dinic", Nis, is common leading of waste waters to municipal sewers (waste waters from factory 2 for pig leather treatment enter now to the Nisava river without purification) with adequate pretreatment. Based to recently experiences as well as laboratory researches pretreatment consist of: rudely dispersed material removal (grates and sieves), equalization, primary sedimentation and coagulation with flocculation and sedimentation gives good results. Meanwhile, technological purification scheme that include separation flot from leaching and tannering from common flow of collective waste waters and their special treatment, respectively repeated use, has significantly adventages: pollution decreasing of collective waste water, saving of basic reagents that use as raw materials in treatment leather in recuperation or repeated use, eliminating waste sludge with chromium and economize of purification process.

As a consequence of bombing of Novi Sad Oil Refinery, Serbia (Serbia&Montenegro), the spillage of large amounts of oil and derivatives caused hydrocarbons pollution of the area surrounding the Refinery and the river Danube, thus directly endangering the entire water source "Ratno ostro". As a measure of protection in the division zone of the Refinery and the water source area, a hydraulic barrier was constructed. Within the process of monitoring piezometer water quality and the water supplied by protection system wells, microbiological analyses of water were carried out with the aim of supervising the barrier functioning. The results have shown that bacterial populations in polluted areas exhibit a duel role: they act as bioindicators of a certain pollution, but at the same time they take part in the process of selfpurification.

This work presents a short review of the existing situation, nature conditions and recognised facts which are important for the sea- pollution of the oil, and another kind of the spill ship oils, inside of the Boka Bay and in the area of the open Adriatic Sea. The proposed original and innovative action concerns the large scale application of a new technique for a cleaning up waterborne oil spills, based on the magnetic separation method by using the material "CleanMag", an oleophillic, and porous material which also is magnetic with an increased density lower than that of the water.

Degradation of groundwater quality whish is used as a raw water source, caused by the continuous pollution, develops gradually. Therefore, it is necessary to analyze the pollution influence, on the first place by the expect concentration of hazardous substances in groundwater. Water source protection measures are based on the results of these analyses.

Water quality examination of water source Zagoric, was conducted with aim to determine water quality on the bases of physico-chemical parameters, in dry and rainy period. Water supply system in Podgorica scopes several water supply sources out of which Mareza and Zagoric have the greatest capacity. The aim of this study was to determine hygienic quality of water in operational and dug wells on representative locations in flow areas, and on the basis of obtained results to estimate its influence on population health.

In this paper are presented the investigation of macrophytic vegetation along Macedonian shore of Lake Ohrid (Radozda-Sv.Naum). The meterial were collected from 59 localities. The results of investigations show that in investigated localities were evidenced 25 different plant species. The number of macrophytic species in different localities vary from 2 to 18 macrophytic species. The differences in the number of macrophyte species are most due to the different ecological conditions in the investigated localities: temperature, light regime, type of soil, configuration of the lake bottom, water level, nutrient amount etc.
