Abstract: Based on the decision of the Municipal Asembly of Subotica and the Law on Environmental Protection of Republic of Serbia, areas of cadastral municipalities Donji i Novi Grad and the municipality of Palic, with total area of 712,36 ha, were placed in the second category of protection and became a Natural Park in 1996. Arround this protected area was established buffer zone of 1698,13 ha.

The basis of the protected area is Palic lake. In addition to indigenous natural values, in the Nature park, there are preserved park areas with a variety of decoratitve and ornamental dendroflora and the perennial species that enrich the content of this natural resource. Protection and development of „Palic“ Nature park are conducted in accordance with the development program. The custodian of the Natural Park is JP „Palic-Ludas“, with the approval of the Municipal Assembly. The last decades of the 19th centruy accelerated the process of converting Palic lake into a swamp. The development of industry has accelerated the degradation of the lake, and in the period from 1971 to 1975 the authorities had to do the complete rehabilitation of the lake. Palic lake in its present form is the water biotope with arranged water regime, exposed to numerous negative impacts from the environment and therefore it is significantly degraded. The increasing urbanization of the nearby areas (Subotica and Palic), wastewatter from industry and tourist facilities, and chemization of agricultural production in the immediate enviroment of the lake have to dischargement of an increasing amout of wastewater. These negative impacts have led to degradation of protected area.

To apply the concept of sustainable development in its most part, as is the practice in most protected natural areas, there is a need of a conscientious management approach that would result in reducing the negative impacts that natural and, mostly, man made factors have on the degradation of the ecosystem of the „Palic“ Nature park.

Keywords: „Palic“ Nature park, sustainable development, pollution, wastewater, tourism.
