Част 1 – литостратиграфия и тектоника Камен Попов, Димитър Величков, Петко Попов Минно-геоложки университет „Св. Иван Рилски“, 1700 София Резюме. В алпийския Балкански ороген, в централните части на Южна България, се обособява Горнотракийската рифтова система. Тя се формира през средноеоценско-кватернерните постколизионни екстензионни процеси, като преработва по-ранните колизионни структури. В рифтовата система е отложен бартон-кватернерен комплекс, в който се обособяват бартонско-приа- бонска, приабонско-долноолигоценска, горноолигоценско-средномиоценска, горномиоценско-плиоценска и кватернерна групa, които се отделят c дискордантни или дисконформни граници. В тези групи се различават поредици от литостратиграфски свити или задруги. Отделните единици са съставени от теригенни континентални, по-малко морски наслаги, с ограничено участие на карбонатни, органични и вулкански материали, както и с въглищни пластове. Въз основа на геоложките и геофизичните проучвания и интерпретацията на сателитни стереоизображения се установява сложна разломна мрежа, определяща структурата на Горнотракийската рифтова система. Обособени са разломи с ИЮИ, ССЗ, ССИ и ИСИ, рядко с меридионални или екваториални направления. Изток-югоизточните структури са определящи и надлъжни спрямо Балканидните, а ССЗ и ССИ са диагонални. В рифтовата система като второразрядни се отбелязват Пловдивският и Загорският грабен и Чирпанският праг. Като третосте- пенни структури в Пловдивския грабен се различават Моминският и Маришкият грабен, Стрямският хорст, както и Пловдивското и Брезовското стъпало. В Загорския грабен са отделени Опанският грабен, Източномаришкото стъпало, Светиилийският хорст, Тунджанското стъпало с Елховското структурно понижение, Симеоновградският хорст, Хасковският грабен и др. В Чирпанския праг се отделят 3 стъпала, разделяни по ИЮИ до субекваториални разломи. В границите на Горнотракийската рифтова система се обособява Горнотракийският уранов руден район. Той е представен от уранови екзогенни находища, формирани в терциерните седименти, които ще бъдат описани в следващата статия. Ключови думи: Горнотракийска рифтова система, бартон-кватернерен комплекс, разломи, второстепенни и трето- степенни структури. Abstract. The Upper Thracian Rift System is differentiated within the frame of the Balkan orogeny, in the central parts of South Bulgaria. It is developed during the Middle Eocene–Quaternary post-collisional extensional processes which remake the earlier colli- sional structures. Bartonian–Quaternary complex is deposited in the rift. The Bartonian–Priabonian, Priabonian–Lower Oligocene, Upper Oligocene–Midle Miocene, Upper Miocene–Pliocene and Quaternary Groups are delimited within the complex, and they are separated by discordant and discomfort boundaries. Numerous lithostratigraphic formations are distinguished in the groups. The particular units are composed from terrigenous continental and less marine sediments, with limited presence of carbonaceous, organic and volcanic deposits, as well as with coal beds. The geological and geophysical investigations and satellite stereo-images interpretations show a complex fault network, which deter- mine the structure of the Upper Thracian Rift System. The differentiated faults are ESE, NNW, NNE and ENE, rare with meridional or equatorial directions. The ESE structures are determinant and longitudinal towards the Balkan system, and the NNW and NNE structures are diagonal. The second rank structures of Plovdiv and Zagora Grabens, and Chirpan Step are noted in the rift system. Numerous third rank structures as the Momino and Maritsa Grabens, Stryama Horst, the Plovdiv and Brezovo Steps are distinguished within the Plovdiv Graben. The Opan Graben, East Maritsa Step, St. Iliya Horst, Tundzha Step with the Elhovo Structural Depression, Simeonovgrad Horst, Haskovo Graben and others, are noted within the Zagora Graben. Three steps divided by ESE to subequatorial faults are formed within the Chirpan Step. The Upper Thracian Uranium Ore Region is formed within the frame of Upper Thracian Rift System. This ore region is represented by exogenous uranium ore deposits formed in the Tertiary sediments, and they will be described in the next paper. Key words: Upper Thracian Rift System, Bartonian–Quaternary complex, faults, second and third rank structures. 35 Introduction metamorphic rocks, Paleozoic granitoides and Upper Cretaceous plutons, volcanics and sediments.

Alternative tourism is an attempt to preserve, protect and improve the quality of the existing resource base, which is fundamental for tourism itself. Alternative tourism is featured by active encouragement and care for the development of additional andspecific attractions as well the infrastructure, which are based on the local resources, while at the same time aiding the latter.

  • Annex REPORT for 2019 UNDER the “HEALTH CARE” PRIORITY of the NATIONAL ROMA INTEGRATION STRATEGY of the REPUBLIC of BULGAR
    Annex REPORT FOR 2019 UNDER THE “HEALTH CARE” PRIORITY of the NATIONAL ROMA INTEGRATION STRATEGY OF THE REPUBLIC OF BULGARIA 2012 - 2020 Operational objective: A national monitoring progress report has been prepared for implementation of Measure 1.1.2. “Performing obstetric and gynaecological examinations with mobile offices in settlements with compact Roma population”. During the period 01.07—20.11.2019, a total of 2,261 prophylactic medical examinations were carried out with the four mobile gynaecological offices to uninsured persons of Roma origin and to persons with difficult access to medical facilities, as 951 women were diagnosed with diseases. The implementation of the activity for each Regional Health Inspectorate is in accordance with an order of the Minister of Health to carry out not less than 500 examinations with each mobile gynaecological office. Financial resources of BGN 12,500 were allocated for each mobile unit, totalling BGN 50,000 for the four units. During the reporting period, the mobile gynecological offices were divided into four areas: Varna (the city of Varna, the village of Kamenar, the town of Ignatievo, the village of Staro Oryahovo, the village of Sindel, the village of Dubravino, the town of Provadia, the town of Devnya, the town of Suvorovo, the village of Chernevo, the town of Valchi Dol); Silistra (Tutrakan Municipality– the town of Tutrakan, the village of Tsar Samuel, the village of Nova Cherna, the village of Staro Selo, the village of Belitsa, the village of Preslavtsi, the village of Tarnovtsi,

Sci., 27 (1), 137–146 Bacterial spot (BS) is a destructive disease affecting tomato and pepper plants. A wide diversity among the pathogens causing this disease makes them a serious threat for the tomato and pepper production worldwide, including Bulgaria, where the disease has become a major problem. To date in Bulgaria three species have been identified that infect tomato X.( vesicatoria, X. euves- icatoria and X. gardneri), and two that infect pepper (X. vesicatoria and X. euvesicatoria). Despite the research and published data, there is no general information about the BS agents on tomato and pepper in Bulgaria in respect to pathotypes, races, and the dynamics of pathogenic populations during the years. In this study we analyzed and summarized for the first time the data on the species, pathotype and race structure of the pathogenic population during the period 1999-2016.
