  15. Financing model – BOT model • The concession granted to ZOV d.o.o. (in December 2000) encompasses:planning and construction of the Plant and infrastructure facilities,Project financing and management of the Plant until 2028, when it will be turned over to the City of management • The Project consists of: • 1. The central plant building for the mechanical and biological treatment of sludge – 1.2 mil. ERU (equivalent resident unit); in the final construction phase 1.5 mil. ERU • 2. Management building, plant and servicing premises • 3. Main wastewater input pipeline from New Zagreb to the Plant over a length of 10 km and the Mičevac pump station • 4. Closure and additional construction of the Main Drainage Canal over a length of 5.5 km • 5. Domovinski Bridge (transit/installation structure) • 6. Construction of Čulinečka road from Slavonska avenue to Radnička road (3 km) • The mechanical portion of the treatment plant has been operational since March 2004, while the final (fourth) phase of biological sludge treatment and processing has been operational since September 2007. • Approximately 98% of investments have been implemented – completion depends on remaining property rights issues • The search for a technical solution to the thermal treatment of waste sludge is under way • There is an obligation to chemically treat wastewater • The estimated investment value is €304 mil.

  16. The third phase of wastewater treatment Project • The Croatian Governmentissued the Decision on Designation of Sensitive Areas (as published in Croatia’s official journal, Narodnenovine, no. 81/10) on which basis the Danube River’s entire drainage basin was proclaimed a sensitive area. • The revised Water Utility Directive Implementation Plan of November 2010 adopted by the Croatian Government stipulates a transition period for the fulfilment of the commitments specified by the Community Wastewater Treatment Directive, which requires the collection of wastewater for facilities in the Black Sea drainage basin – a sensitive zone for installations above 150,000 ERU – with more advanced treatment by the deadline of 31 December 2018. • The third phase of wastewater treatment entails, in addition to the second treatment phase, removal of phosphorus by 80% and/or nitrogen by 70-80 %. • The national water management company Hrvatskevode has granted a water management license for the release of wastewater from the public sewage system in the City of Zagreb with treatment at the Central Treatment Plant (CUPOVZ), whereby Zagrebačkeotpadnevode is obliged to undertake activities for the construction of the third treatment phase at the Plant, to be completed by 31 December 2016, for the purpose of protecting water management interests in compliance with the Program of Water Pollution Prevention Measures with target deadlines. • The Project is nominated for fundingfromthe EU's StructuralFunds • The value of this investment has been estimated at € 40 million.
