MISP (Municipal Infrastructure Support Programme), financed by EU and managed by the Delegation of the European Union to the Republic of Serbia, assists municipalities in Serbia in the preparation of project documentation and implementation of municipal infrastructure projects. MISP is focused on supporting environmental and economical projects (drinking water, waste water treatmant, solid waste management, sheltered housing, education facilities, tourist sites and industrial zones). Since 2005, more than 20 projects with a total value of over 68 million Euros have been implemented. The main goal of MISP is the improvement of the infrastructure services management in municipalities and to increase investment in the infrastructure, in order to meet EU standards on environmental protection and sustainable economic development. MISP is also assisting municipalities and PUC’s throughout the complete process of infrastructure projects realization - from funding application, feasibility studies (SLAP IS www.slap.skgo.org ), budget management to projects implementation. EPTISA, Spanish engineering company, which chairs the consortium of two more foreign companies: ROYAL HASKONING (NL) and VNG (NL), is in charge of MISP project realization.
