2018 toxic waste incident
Vukićevica made nationwide headlines in December 2017 when 22 to 25 tons of waste were found in the village, buried into the ground on the lot of the local entrepreneur Zoran Marković. Waste was packed in 89 tin barrels. Several days later, on a different lot, but also owned by the Marković family, additional 60 barrels and five plastic containers were discovered, being partially dug and scattered around. On the same day, in the village of Veliko Polje, west of Vukićevica, but also in the Obrenovac municipality, 18 tons of waste in 100 tin barrels were discovered in a warehouse. Environment minister Goran Trivan stated that the waste is extremely toxic and cancerous. The waste mostly consisted of industrial waste oil, remnants of the automobile tires and machine oils ("dirty" mazut). It contained benzole, benzene, trichloroethylene and toluene.
This brief starts where responsible research should: with the source description of “Vukićevica” as village in Serbia. Everything that follows is an evidence route, not borrowed authority.
Why this record matters
The subject matters to the places & architecture register because the source frames it as village in Serbia. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.
Place names and jurisdictional language are key evidence: both can reveal earlier catalogue descriptions and overlooked record series. The source revision retrieved here is dated Sep 12, 2025. The linked authority identifier is Q3104201. Authority coordinates are 44.562, 20.042. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 2011, 1967, 2018 and 2017.
Architectural summaries often privilege surviving fabric and can understate demolished phases, contested use or displaced communities. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
