The decision of the environmental inspection to ban the operation of the boiler house in Skerliceva Street in Pljevlja has caused a stormy reaction from employees of the "Grijanje" company, which manages the city's boiler house. They have announced that they will not allow it to be closed.
The workers stated on their Facebook account that they consider the inspection's decision unfair, issuing a public call to the Mayor of the Municipality, Dario Vraneš, the users of their services, and all citizens to join them in, as they stated, "defending this facility."
Also, the employees called on citizens to protest, including stopping the transportation of coal to the Pljevlja Thermal Power Plant, until, according to them, the disputed decision is annulled.
For now, there is no additional explanation from the Environmental Inspectorate about the reasons for the boiler house ban. It is expected that more details will be known in the coming days about the further steps of the competent institutions and the possible consequences of this decision.
The Environmental Inspection today ordered the director of "Grijanje Pljevlja", Vlado Tošić, to close the boiler room in Skerlićeva Street, due to exceeding the level of pollutants emitted from the chimney, attached to one of the buildings in the city center.
Tošić points out that exceedances of pollutants have been significantly reduced compared to the previous year.
He warns that closing the boiler room would lead to huge consequences, both for the company and for the citizens, because if the boilers were to shut down, the installations would freeze, and thousands of citizens in the center of Pljevlja would be left without heating.
