Inadequate waste management is one of the biggest environmental problems. This conclusion is derived from numerous analyses of the environmental situation in the territory of the Republic of Serbia that have been done in recent years. One of the responses of the state of Serbia to such a situation is the adoption of the Law on Waste Management and other "environmental" laws and bylaws. Waste management is an environmental problem that requires priority resolution and is considered one of the most demanding areas in terms of compliance with EU standards. On the territory of the City of Vranje, a major ecological problem is represented by the complex of the abandoned landfill "Donje Vranje", where industrial and municipal waste was disposed of in the period from 1962 to 2002. The complex of the abandoned landfill is located 3 km from the center of Vranje and directly in the aluvion of the City River. In order to strategically and timely integration and harmonization with the Action Plan for the implementation of the Regional Waste Management Plan and the construction of the Regional Non-Hazardous Waste Management Center "METERIS VRANJE", the preparation of project and technical documentation is required. The purpose of all these activities is the rehabilitation and remediation of the complex of the abandoned landfill "Donje Vranje" with the consideration of the possibility of relocation of all waste after partial separation to the Regional Center.
