Ghoukassyan b a GEORISK Scienti¢c Research Company, Yerevan, Armenia b Institute of Geological Sciences, National Academy of Sciences of Armenia, Yerevan, Armenia c Geological Institute, Russian Academy of Sciences, Moscow, Russia d Montpellier-II University, Montpellier, France Received 1 February 2003; accepted 16 March 2003 Abstract We address volcanic hazards in the region of the Armenian Nuclear Power Plant and discuss the assessment of these hazards conducted in the framework of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) programs in 1994^ 1995. An important problem of volcanic hazard assessment is posed by assumptions that the apparent absence of recent volcanic activity in Armenia means that future eruptions in the vicinity of the site are impossible. We present new historical, archaeological, and field data, as well as records of the volcanic activity based on radiocarbon, fission- track, K/Ar and plateau-age determinations. This new evidence attests to volcanism in Armenia and adjacent areas during Holocene and historical time. Volcanic activity is demonstrated for Tskhouk-Karckar, Porak, Vaiyots-Sar, Smbatassar, Gegham Ridge and Ararat volcanoes. Volcanic eruptions occurred on Ararat at distances of 27 and 52 km from the plant site in 2500^2400 BC and in 1840 AD, respectively. New information permits a re-assessment of the volcanic hazards at a level higher than in the 1994^1995 studies.

    SOUTH SUDAN INVESTORS GUIDE South Sudan Investment Forum Washington, D.C. April 17, 2013 Acknowledgements Republic of South Sudan This conference is made possible through the: In partnership with support of the Government of South Sudan; ongoing collaboration with the South Sudan Investment Authority; knowledge and expertise of IFC; and the generous sponsorship of USAID. Republic of South Sudan (RSS) Minister of Commerce, Industry, and Investment Welcome Message of the Minister of Commerce, Industry and Investment of the Republic of South Sudan For the past two years since our country’s independence, we have been striving to rebuild our Nation. We have made important advances in key aspects such as passing relevant legislation, developing our institutions and signing agreements with our neighbors and the world. The first and foremost objective of the Government of South Sudan is to develop those sectors which will provide food security and make the best rational use of our country’s vast natural resources. Abundant land and water and massive unmet local and regional demand for goods and services creates opportunities in all areas of agriculture, forestry and fisheries as well as in a wide range of crops such as cereals, oilseeds, sugar, horticulture, floriculture, coffee, tea and many other specialty crops. Most of South Sudan’s significant mineral wealth is as yet untapped. The country holds tremendous potential as evidenced by the existing production in South Sudan as well as recent oil finds in neighboring Uganda and Kenya. There are also opportunities in infrastructure such as oil pipelines and downstream projects such as refineries.
