On the example of a project with title ,,Methodology for risk assessment 'Crom natural and technological catastrophes for city of Skopje" it is shown that it is necessary for these puproses to record existing state of technological installations. ln scope of that a catalog of hazardous materials which are manipulated in course of pursuing of technological processes must be prepared.
