In recent years, organizing air shows is a very popular attraction. The proof is the high number of visitors. Examples are the NATO Days in Ostrava, where the number of visitors is around 200,000, or the CIAF in Hradec Králové, which will be attended by 40,000 visitors. The aim of the articles is to approach and analyse the approaches that ensure the safety of people during these events in the Czech Republic. Several legal regulations dealing with this issue were analysed and their content is focused on the obligations of the rescue system during air events. The contribution of the article can be information that can help ensure the safety of air shows abroad.

Among the most common non-conventional wastewater treatment techniques used in the Czech Republic are waste stabilisation ponds (WSP), subsurface horizontal flow constructed wetlands (CW) and vertical flow groundfilters (GF). These extensive systems can be advantageously used for treatment of waters coming from sewerages where the ballast weighting commonly makes more than half of dry-weather flow. The monitoring was focused at 14 different extensive systems. Organics removal efficiencies were favourable (CW–82%; GF–88%); in the case of WSP only 57% due to the algal bloom. Total nitrogen removal efficiencies were 43 and 47% for WSP and GF; in the case of CW only 32% due to often occurring anaerobic conditions in filter beds. Total phosphorus removal efficiencies were 37, 35 and 22% for WSP, GF and CW, respectively. Often occurring problems are the ice-blockage of surface aerators at WSP during wintertimes, the pond duckweed-cover or the algal bloom at WSP during summers; a gradual colmatage of filter systems; and the oxygen deficiency in beds of subsurface horizontal flow constructed wetlands. Czech legal regulations do not allow treated wastewater disposal into underground waters. There is only an exception for individual family houses. Up to now, knowledge gained by monitoring of a village (which uses the infiltration upon a permission issued according to earlier legal regulations) have not shown an unacceptable groundwater quality deterioration into the infiltration areas.

The article concerns the issue of trade law in the context of its evolution and the current realities of its being in force in Republic of Slovakia. In the paper the authors present an historical view of the creation of legal regulations about trade from ancient times to present days. In the first part of the paper the political system and its components are discussed. The reader will be able to acquaint themselves with the functioning of the apparatus of executive power (the government and ministries), legislative power (the parliament consisting of 150 members) and judiciary (independent courts and prosecutors) in the Republic of Slovakia. Moreover, this part of the article provides information about practical aspects of the creation of selected components of the constitutional legal order (e.g. parliamentary elections). In the second part, the paper covers the evolution of trade law over the centuries, approaches to regulations in Mesopotamia, based on, inter alia, the Code of Hammurabi, and also in ancient Egypt and Greece. Tracing the development of trade law over the centuries, the authors also present the evolution of legal regulations in this field in the XIX century, with particular reference to France, Germany and Austria-Hungary (especially the territory which today forms the Czech Republic and the Slovak Republic). In the last part of the article, the forming of regulations of trade law in Czechoslovakia from 1918 and during subsequent periods which created the history of that country, to the overthrow communism and the peaceful division of the state in 1993 into two separate, independent state organisms – the Czech Republic and Slovakia - is approached.

In 2010, the Faculty of Safety Engineering at the VSB – Technical University of Ostrava (FBI VŠB-TUO) commenced work on the SIMPROKIM (Simulation of crisis management processes in the system of whole-life education of the integrated rescue system (IRS) units and public administration bodies) project. The SIMPROKIM project falls under the framework of Safety research program, financed by the Ministry of Interior of the Czech Republic (MI CR), for which two main objectives have been determined:

The article focuses on the assessment and evaluation of the passability in densely populated parts of cities with multi-storey housing estates, in terms of the operation of the integrated rescue system (IRS) in the Czech Republic. The aim of the research is to minimize the arrival times to conduct the intervention as efficiently as possible. The presented problem is caused by unsystematic development of housing estates and the emergence of secondary problems in the form of inability to reach the place of intervention by the larger IRS vehicles. The vision presented in this document presents a systematic approach to improve the serviceability of individual blocks of flats. The main aim is to ensure passability, even for the largest equipment, such as fire engine ladders. Detailed mapping of the selected sites by drones, construction of their digital model, and subsequent virtual verification of the passability by specific vehicle models on identified access roads was performed. The results obtained by this procedure can then be implemented in the navigation of the fire safety forces and facilitate their arrival at the site of intervention. At the end, specific ways are presented in which the whole system can be modified to be able to intuitively change and choose individual access routes in real time, based on the current situation in the area.

Abstract This contribution deals with the topics of impacts of the regulating mechanisms on the protection of population against a specific form of terrorism. As a reference element for exploring the subjected intent, a regulating mechanism of legal character was selected by the author. As the assessment of the regulation of all CBRN components would be out of the framework of this type of work, the author limited his survey to the area of the combat chemical agents and industrially dangerous agents provided the survey model applied can be utilised to other means as well.

Abstract As part of the present article, the Authors analyzed relevant legal rules that are in force in countries where the gas and coal outburst hazard occurs (Australia, the Czech Republic, China, Germany, Poland, Russia, and Ukraine). Similarities and differences between particular solutions were highlighted. As the subject of the analysis were the original legal standards, the article incorporates the parameter symbols and units adopted in the discussed regulations.

The purpose of this study is to familiarise readers with the legal regulations of induced abortion and to sketch the mental background leading to their approval in the Czech Republic from 1918 until now. It presents the Austrian- Hungarian law which the Czechoslovak Republic took and which was valid until 1950. It explains the communistic legal regulation, valid between 1950 and 1957. It points out the personality of the Health minister who was responsible for the legalisation of abortion in 1957. It also states modifications to the implementing regulations until 1986 when a new abortion law with the corresponding ordinance was enacted. At the end, it mentions an attempt to adjust this law in 2003 and presents some positions in the debate concerning a planned health care reform in 2008.

AbstractThis report is a review of the response and the activities of the Emergency Medical Services during a huge flood that devastated one-third of the territory of the Czech Republic in July 1997. The Emergency Medical Services personnel extracted by helicopter a great number of citizens who were trapped in their flats and homes. For diabetics and cardiacs who were isolated from the surface transport, the EMS personnel supplied necessary medication, and transported patients to hemodialysis.The cooperation between non-medical emergency services and the district crisis staff of the Integrated Rescue System, varied in different districts. However, in most flooded districts, the cooperation was satisfactory. In addition, a large number of volunteers helped in the first days of the flood.Unfortunately, 49 people died because of the flood. Nevertheless, since the EMS was able to manage the extraordinary needs, the number of emergencies and hospitalizations was low.
