EXECUTIVE SUMMARY BACKGROUND The Environmental Impact Assessment report (EIA) on the completion of construction works for Luda Yana Dam has been developed following the submission of the Environmental Due Diligence Report (EDD) prepared in 2007 by the Ministry of Regional Development and Public Works (MRDPW) to meet the World Bank policy requirements on Environmental Assessment. This document is part of the documentation required for approval of the World Bank assistance requested by the Government of Bulgaria (GoB) to finance activities related to municipal infrastructure development through completion of the Luda Yana water supply dam. This EIA report has been developed to meet the Bank requirements as stated in the ToR (Annex I) and to comply with the effective environmental legislation in the Republic of Bulgaria (RB). OVERVIEW OF THE LEGISLATIVE AND PPOLITICAL SYSTEM AND ORGANIZATIONAL DIAGRAM REFERRING TO THE ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT Environmental protection is a country policy priority. Depending on the classification of infrastructure projects they can be either subject to a mandatory EIA or subject to assessment of the need for an EIA. Luda Yana dam, which has a total capacity of 19,94×106 m3 would be subject to a mandatory

Despite the proximity of Sredna Gora Mountains to Sofia, the insect assemblages of this region are poorly studied. As a result of two studies carried out as a part of an Environmental Impact Assessment in the Natura 2000 Protected Areas: Sredna Gora and Popintsi, a rich diversity of insects was discovered, with 107 saproxylic and epigeobiont Coleoptera species and 355 Lepidoptera species recorded. This research was conducted during a short one-season field study in the surrounding areas of the town of Panagyurishte and Oborishte Village. Special attention was paid to protected species and their conservation status. Of the Coleoptera recorded, 22 species were of conservation significance. Forty-five Lepidoptera species of conservation importance were also recorded. KEY WORDS.WORDS.

  • Geoarchaeological Monuments of Ancient Mining in Sredna Gora Mountain
    Geoarchaeology and Archaeomineralogy (Eds. R. I. Kostov, B. Gaydarska, M. Gurova). 2008. Proceedings of the International Conference, 29-30 October 2008 Sofia, Publishing House “St. Ivan Rilski”, Sofia, 258-262. GEOARCHAEOLOGICAL MONUMENTS OF ANCIENT MINING IN SREDNA GORA MOUNTAIN Todor Nenov LK “Mladost” bl. 84A, 1797 Sofia ABSTRACT. In Sredna Gora Mountain are preserved thousand of monuments and traces of ore production from the Prehistoric period, the Antiquity period and the Medieval period. These are mine pits, quarries, shafts, underground passages, wastes and miners’ tools and facilities, which often have been interpreted one-sidedly in a historical (archaeological) aspect. Gold-bearing, copper gold-bearing, copper and iron ores have been exploited. The material traces of mining activity are represented by geoarchaeological monuments, which require complex approach and research methods. Introduction Information about the prehistoric and antique ore production The cult and economic character of a number of rock in Bulgaria, and more precisely, in the Srednogorie Region, phenomena can not be doubted. Such are ancient sacred and can be found in a number of publications (Skorpil, 1882; 1884; cult places, sacrificial sites and food storages, which are to be 1888; Karaoglanov, 1924; Radoslavov, 1934; Peev, 1975; found at many places around and in the natural heights of 1980; 1990; Georgiev, 1978; 1987; Cernykh, Raduncheva, Sredna Gora Mountain. Such are some of the rock cauldrons 1972; Cernykh, 1978; Kovachev, 1994; Nenov, 1994; 1997; in the Panagyurishte (“Kazanite”) and Stara Zagora Avdev, 2005; Nenov, Nenov, 2008a; 2008b). Certain data on (“Kazaneto” near the Village Kazanka and “Kazana” near the mining activities are given in the records of travelers, in village Kolena) area.

    ABBREVIATED LAND ACQUISITION PLAN FOR THE PURPOSE OF CONSTRUCTION OF LUDA YANA DAM, Public Disclosure Authorized PANAGYURISHTE MUNICIPALITY, BULGARIA 1. INTRODUCTION This Abbreviated Land Acquisition Plan (ALAP) has been prepared by the Ministry of Regional Development and Public Works (MRDPW) of the Republic of Bulgaria to outline the actions undertaken for the acquisition of land required for the construction of the Luda Public Disclosure Authorized Yana dam and its ancillary components (i.e. dam wall, reservoir, water tower, wastewater pipe, main outlet discharge, spillway, potable water treatment plant (PWTP), “sanitary zone”, etc), including the associated infrastructure – water supply pipelines and relocation of electrical lines in the Municipality of Panagyurishte, Pazardijk region. The completion of this project is part of the Municipal Infrastructure Development Project (MIDP), implemented by the MRDPW with a credit facility of the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development. This ALAP has been drafted in conformity with the requirements of the applicable Bulgarian Public Disclosure Authorized laws and the requirements of the MDIP’s Land Acquisition Policy Framework (LAPF) dated March 2009, which is in line with the World Bank Operational Policy (ОP) 4.12 on Involuntary Resettlement. The LAPF includes an analysis of the applicable legal framework, valuation criteria, entitlement matrix, stakeholder engagement and grievance mechanism, among other details. This Land Acquisition Plan complements and builds on the findings of the Social Due Diligence (November 2007)1 which describes the historical land acquisition under the construction of Luda Yana dam which started prior to the World Bank involvement in the on- going Municipal Infrastructure Development Project (MIDP).

    Feasibility studies of two small-medium multipurpose storage reservoirs of Norera and Borenga in Kenya and Tanzania respectively in the Mara River Basin Country Kenya-Tanzania Name of client Nile Basin Initiative / Nile Equatorial Lakes Subsidiary Action Program Dates (start/end) 2013-2014 The specific objectives of the Consultancy Services Contract were: Water resources analysis of the transboundary Mara catchment, incl. hydrological analysis and sediment modeling to estimate inflows, soil erosion, reservoir and sediment yields at the proposed dam sites. Analysis for water resources demands for various purposes such as irrigation, domestic and livestock water supplies, and environmental flows requirements projected to year 2035. A reservoir simulation model for each dam site to ensure that different combinations of multipurpose uses and project scenarios can be studied in order to arrive at the optimum solution. Preliminary designs for the two dams. Major features of design consideration include: foundation treatment, abutment stability, seepage conditions, stability of slopes adjacent to control structure, approach channels and stilling basins, stability of reservoir slopes, and ability of the reservoir to retain the stored water. For this purpose topographical surveying and geological, geophysical and geotechnical investigations are performed. Preliminary Environmental and Social Impact Assessments (ESIA), compliant with international standards and environmental and social requirements of National Environmental Management Authority (NEMA), Kenya, and the National Environmental Management Council (NEMC), Tanzania, as well as with the World Bank’s safeguard/policies. A preliminary Environmental and Social Impact analysis includes a preliminary Resettlement Action Plan (RAP) report and Public Participation Strategy report. Institutional analysis aiding in the definition of suitable institutional setups and arrangements for project implementation including mechanisms to implement nationally while maintaining transboundary dimensions.
