While the Lim River is full of garbage, the beautiful Ratajska River is considered the region's cleanest
The settlements through which the Ratajska River flows are widely known for their agricultural production, hardworking and honest people
A company from Subotica is planning to build a mini hydro power plant on one of the cleanest rivers in the Prijepolje region, the Ratajska. The municipal administration is conducting a public environmental impact assessment for this project, and interested citizens can inspect the data and documentation on weekdays from 10 am to 2 pm in the premises of the Department of Urban Planning, Construction, Communal Housing and Property Law.

"The settlements through which the Ratajska River flows are famous far and wide for their agricultural production, hard-working and honest people, who in the summer months, in order to save their crops from drought and thus feed their families, use the water from the river. We will not allow the construction of that mini hydro power plant, we fear that putting a pipe in the river would threaten our survival," residents of the village of Skokuce told RINA.
Since there are no pollution sources in its upper course, the Ratajska is reputed to be one of the cleanest rivers in the Prijepolje region. More than 200 households are supplied with drinking water from this river.
The construction of the mini hydro power plant is planned on cadastral plots 1, 286, 286/2, 1832 Skokuce and 1652 Karosevina.
