Sažetak
The SILAQ Programme was developed in implementation of one of the four Sofia Initiatives on the application of the Environmental Action Plan in Central and Eastern European countries, which was adopted during the Third "Environment for Europe" ministerial conference in Sofia in1995. Bulgaria, Croatia, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, Romania, Slovakia and Slovenia joined the Working Group. Bulgaria was appointed to chair the Working Group and the Regional Environmental Center for Central and Eastern Europe and its Local Office in Sofia were requested to coordinate the programme. This programme assisted the countries in learning more about their own problems and about each other. Specific and common problems were discussed jointly during the seminars. While utilising a relatively small amount of funds, the programme proved to be beneficial to the countries. In Sofia, Bulgaria, during April 2000 the workshop entitled "High density areal PM sampling for air quality characterizations" was organized. Experts from Bulgaria, Croatia, Macedonia and Romania took part at training for planning studies and operating with portable MiniVol sampling equipment. The theory and practical exercises were organized . In 2002 the PM sampling equipment was placed at disposal of the Croatian Ministry of Environment. The PM study in Croatia started in May and was completed in January 2003. Two Croatian institutions participated in the measuring campaign, Institute for medical research and Occupational Health (IMROH) and ANT, Zagreb. This paper present the preliminary results of the investigations performed by (IMROH). During the December 2002 in Zagreb, Croatia, the regional meeting of the working group on characterization of particulate matter (PM2.5/PM10/TSP) pollution was organized in order to share the experience and results of the studies made in Croatia and to discuss the future usage of the equipment. Participants from Bulgaria, Croatia, Hungary, Macedonia, Romania and Slovenia took part in the meeting. Three different measuring campaigns were performed by IMROH. 1. Pollutant mass concentrations at Zagreb monitoring network sampling sites: PM10, PM2.5, sulphates, chlorides, nitrates, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) 2. Pollutant mass concentrations at Zagreb crossroads: PM10, PM2.5, lead, cadmium, manganese, nirogen oxide, nitrogen dioxide, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons 3. Pollutant mass concentrations in the road tunnel “ Tuhobić” : PM10, PM2.5, lead, cadmium, manganese, carbon monoxide, nirogen oxide, nitrogen dioxide, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons In this paper the results of the first measuring campaign are presented.
