In this article we treat the problemof nonpoint source pollution as a problem of moral hazard in group. To solve this kind of problemwe consider a group performance based tax coupled to tradable permits market. The tax is activated if the group fails to meet the ambient standard. So the role of the tax is to provide an incitation to ensure that the agents provide the abatement level necessary to achieve the standard. The role of the tradable permits market is to distribute effectively this abatement level through the price of the permits which rises with the exchange of the permits.

A series of measurements has been conducted with various combinations of ejector dimensions. Variables were diameter of the nozzle and the distance between the end of the nozzle and the beginning of the pipe. Vacuum head in function of water flow was measured when there was no air flow, and when there was air flow (from a reservoir with constant volume). The results are presented in this paper.

This study investigates the effect of pH, temperature, contact time and initial metal concentration on Cu++ ions removal from water solutions, using biomass of Lagenaria vulgaris skin (LV). With higher pH, the efficiency of copper sorption increases and reaches its maximum at pH 7.0. Temperature has negative effect on sorption process due to its exothermic properties. Biosorption efficiency increases with time and reaches equilibium after 40 min. Increasing initial copper concentration gives an increase in biosorbent sorption capacity, and a proportional decrease in treatment efficiency. Obtained results have shown that LV based biosorbent is an efficient and available mean for toxic metal removal from natural and waste waters.

The stable isotope content of hydrogen (2H/1H), carbon (13C/12C), nitrogen (15N/14N), and oxygen (18O/16O) in surface water (the Sava river and channels) and groundwater (Ranney wells) were determined in Belgrade (Serbia) during July 2008. Detailed evaporation calculation has estimated that fraction of water loss to be between 10 and 20% in the channels using the local meteoric water line and the local evaporation line. Carbon-13 content in dissolved inorganic carbon is distinguished between surface water and groundwater indicating different evolution pathways of carbon. Based on carbon and nitrogen isotopic composition and C/N ratios, sources of inorganic carbon and of organic matter in analyzed waters are discussed.

New locations for the distribution of algae C. corniculata (Phaeophyceae) are presented, with a scope to improve scarce knowledge on phytobenthos of the Montenegrian coast. In the Bay of Boka Kotorska this algae is found on 10 locations and on 3 locations, on depth of 3 m and 5 m, measurements of wet weight and length of primary branches are done. Differences between biomass of algae are note between different depths and different seasons, but between different locations there are no significant differences.

The weekly measurement of physico-chemical and biological parameters was done during the spring of 2008 in order to assess the level of eutrophication in the Kotor Bay. Chlorophyll a was used as trophic level indicator and its values varied from minimal 1.00 mg/cubic meter in June on the depth of 10 m to maximal 3.71 mg/cubic meter on the sea surface in May. According to Nixon criteria during investigation period it can be concluded that the area in question is oligotrophic. On the other hand, according to UNEP criteria which are somewhat stricter when the concentration of chlorophyll a is in question, Kotor Bay was mesoeutrophic area.

Zooplankton community analysis was conducted for spring (April - 07) and summer (August - 07) in Boka Kotorska Bay. Analyses included determination of biomass and qualitative composition. Data are given on the number of specimens per cubic meter as well as on the volume organisms. Qualitative composition showed domination Copepoda of zooplanktons groups.
