Scope of the Study APPENDIX A Further Explanation of Tasks Performed Study on Air Quality Management in Tehran Based on Original Terms of Reference Appendix A Further Explanation of Tasks Performed Based on Original Terms of Reference (1) Phase I: Study of Current Status Four sub tasks for Phase I activities are defined in the Term of Reference: (i) Collection of existing data related to the Study, (ii) Review of current status of air pollution control activities, (iii) proposing priority program(s) of the Management Action Plan, and (iv) Identification of the shortcomings and basic needs of Phase II and Phase III of the study. In response to sub task (ii), regulatory and institutional framework was reviewed in Chapter 2. The review covered laws and regulations, Department of Environment, Executive Committee and other relevant organizations. In addition, in Chapter 3, air quality management in Tehran was also reviewed. This included air quality monitoring system, air quality standards, stationary and mobile emission sources management, and public awareness programs. In response to sub task (iv), through the review work, the preliminary analysis of management issues were made and the results were summarized in last sections of Chapter 2 and 3. This analysis became a basis of the implementation of pilot projects and preparation of the Management Action Plan (MAP) in Phase II and the implementation of the MAP in Phase III. The study also covered sub-task (iii) by proposing nine priority programs which were renamed as pilot project later. Finally, seven pilot projects were selected and implemented in Phase II. The details are illustrated in Chapter 4. To complete the analysis, existing data related to the Study were collected and the data are shown in relevant Chapters. (2) Phase II: Development of the Management Action Plan As the scope of the study mentioned, after the completion of Phase I, the detailed content of the scope of the Study within Phase II and Phase III was discussed, determined and included in the Term of Reference. Based on Term of Reference, management issues and directions for improvement were identified through the implementation of pilot projects (Chapter 4). At the same time, to evaluate the implementation of pilot projects, Pilot Project Management Units (PPMUs) and Working Groups (WGs) were established (Chapter 5). After discussions within PPMUs and WGs, over 50 MAP measures were proposed and 15 priority MAP measures were selected based on established principles of MAP formulation and a logical framework (Chapter 5). MAP includes plans of strengthening public awareness and plans of capacity building. (3) Phase III: Supervision and Evaluation of the Implementation of the Management Action Plan This part consists of 4 sub-tasks: (i) support for the implementation of the MAP, (ii) Supervising and evaluation of the implementation of the MAP and (iii) Proposal of corrective measures for the implementation of the MAP. As mentioned in Chapter 6, three different kinds in terms of level of assistance provided by the JICA Study Team, among the 15 priority MAP measures. The first category is those involving JICA Study Team and DOE Tehran as a joint team for its implementation. One is the A-1 A Further Explanation of Tasks Performed Study on Air Quality Management in Tehran Based on Original Terms of Reference strengthening of the EC secretariat of the Executive Committee. Another one is the establishment of a mechanism to prepare a comprehensive emission source inventory. The second category is one that will receive active consultation by the Joint Team in its implementation. The preparation of White Paper on Air Pollution falls into this category. The third category is those that will receive monitoring of their progress only. Responsible agencies were expected to implement individual management action plan on their own and the Joint Team monitored the progress and report to the EC. Through the implementation and supervision, evaluation was done and recommendations were made in Chapter 7. A-2 Study on Air Quality Management in Tehran B Seminar Records Appendix B Seminar Records B1 Introduction With support from the JICA Study Team, DOE-TPD organized seminars during the Study period to broadly disseminate contents and activities of the Study as well as to obtain comments and suggestions to be reflected to the subsequent Study. Five seminars were held on important timings of the Study, and approximately a total of 590 people attended from various organizations. Presentations were made by the DOE-TPD officials, study team members, the advisory committee members for the Study, JICA expert, and people from related organizations in Iran. A question and answer session was conducted after each presentation and interpreters were arranged. A brief summary of the seminars is shown in Table B.1 and the minutes of the seminars are attached in this Appendix. The first seminar was held on October 6, 2002 to introduce the overall content and procedures of the Study and to gain consensus from people and organizations concerned. Japan’s experience on air pollution control was also introduced. The second seminar was held on February 9, 2003 to introduce the current situation and activities in Tehran and Japan for alleviating air pollution and form a consensus on the framework and procedures for formulating the MAP. Topics of the pilot projects, which played an important role in formulating the MAP, were also introduced. The third seminar was held on October 5, 2003 to report on the progress of the seven pilot projects. Iranians did most presentations. The fourth seminar was held on February 8, 2004 to present management issues found from the seven pilot projects, to introduce the MAP and to obtain comments and suggestions on the MAP. The contractors of the pilot projects gave presentations on the pilot projects and a JICA expert made a presentation on air pollution mechanism in the Tehran City area. The fifth seminar was held on December 4, 2004 to present the MAP and its measures in detail and to report on improvements made through implementing some of the MAP measures.

Not only it can compromise pregnancy outcomes, but also it may affect their newborn’s overall health. The aim of this study was to assess the oral health status and associated factors in pregnant women. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted amongst 407 pregnant women in the second and third trimester of pregnancy in Varamin, Iran. Oral health status was examined, and demographic, socioeconomic status and dental care behavior data were collected. Oral health indices included periodontal pocket, bleeding on probing (BOP) and decayed, missed, filled teeth (DMFT). Regression analysis of DMFT was used to study the association between demographic, dental care behaviors indicators and outcome variables using the count ratios (CR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI). Results: The mean (SD, Standard Deviation) age of participants was 27.35 (5.57). Daily brushing, flossing habit were observed in 64.1, and 20.6% of mothers, respectively. Mean (SD) of DMFT, D, M, F were 10.34(5.10), 6.94(4.40), 2.22 (2.68) and 1.19(2.23), respectively. Women older than 35 years had significantly more DMFT [CR = 1.35 (95% CI 1.13; 1.60)], less D [CR = 0.75 (95% CI 0.59; 0.94)], and more M [CR = 3.63 (95% CI 2.57; 5.14)] compared to women under 25 years after controlling for education and dental care behaviors.

  • Comparison of Confidor and Palizin in Control of Greenhouse Whitefly Adults in Gerbera Commercial Greenhouses in Pakdasht
    Applied Plant Protection, Vol. 6, No. 1, 2017 Comparison of Confidor and Palizin in control of greenhouse whitefly adults in Gerbera commercial greenhouses in Pakdasht Z. Alibakhshi1, S. Seddigh2* and B. Tafaghodinia3 Received: 9 Jan., 2017 Accepted: 6 May, 2017 ABSTRACT Gerbera is attacked by a large number of pests, one of the most important of which is greenhouse whitefly (Trialeurodes vaporariorum Westwood). Currently, it is controlled by chemical and large amounts of money are used to import insecticides to control this pest annually. In current research, the effect of Palizin and Imidacloprid in T. vaporariorum control in commercial gerbera greenhouses was compared. The experiment was performed in a commercial greenhouse in Pakdasht, Tehran. The same size and none flower gerbera pots were selected for further analysis. Before and after the experiment, the number of nymphs and adults were estimated. Selected factors were included: the pesticide in two levels, pesticide dose in three levels (0.5, 1 and 1.5), application time in three levels (hours 8, 12 and 16) and replications in a month in three levels (2, 4 and 6). Data was analyzed using Design Expert 10 software with RSM (Response Surface Method) method. Based on the result, the mortality percentage of whitefly adults during the use of Confidor is significantly higher than Palizin. Also the only significant factor was the pesticide type, and other factors will not make any significant changes in the response. Key words: Palizin, Gerbera, Trialeurodes vaporariorum, chemical control, Confidor 1. Former MSc.

    Draft ECO Car Manufacturing Plan Preface: as a result and due to the increasing need to promote the intra ECO industrial joint investments and as per the negotiations and decisions of the ECO CCI Statutory meeting during the past several years in particular the final Report of the 14th Meeting of Industry, Investment and SME’s Promotion Committee held in Karachi, 14 November 2019 all the member chambers sense the need to address this issue. Hence the subject event highlighted the sıgnifıcance of the Small and Medıum Enterprıses and the very ımportant role that the joınt industrial cooperation and investments can play ın boostıng the ıntra ECO trade and ınvestment . In that same meeting the participants called for the joınt productıon of goods among the ECO member states namely a car whether ın part or as a whole joıntly and ın collaboration of the member countrıes. In this respect it was suggested that a joint venture be formed among the member states in order to facilitate and catalyze the joint production and manufacturing of vehicles namely cars which can also collaborate in the relevant areas such as spare parts production etc. Consequently the opinions and viewpoints of the member chambers will be of great value in this respect in order to further discuss the case during a technical committee meeting which will be held during the next meeting of Industry, Investment and SME’s Promotion Committee. Therefore obviously this proposal presented at the previous meetings is based on actual capabilities of the ECO region as it is also proposed that parts manufacturing for cars be promoted among member states focusing on SME’s production factories and plants to give SME’s another boost in the region.
