    CHAPTER 6 TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE TO SRA ON ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES Preparatory Survey on the Project for Construction of Mykolaiv Bridge in Ukraine Final Report 6. TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE TO SRA ON ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES 6.1 Environmental and Social Considerations 6.1.1 Project Components (1) Name The Project for Construction of Mykolaiv Bridge in Ukraine (2) Project Proponent The State Road Administration of Mykolaiv in Ukraine (Ukravtodor Mykolaiv) (3) Project Object The aim of the planned activity is to construct a highway river crossing over the Southern Bug River of city Mykolaiv cit;y. A highway river crossing including the bridge and approaches to it on the road M-14 Odessa – Melitopol – Novoazovsk (to Taganrog): beginning on the right bank of the Southern Bug River near the village Vesniane from M-14; end – on the left bank to the M-14 at the crossing with auto road P-06 Ulianovka – Mykolaiv. Construction of approaches to the bridge structures requires allocation of land for permanent use within the projected band allocation of the road. At present these lands are owned by individuals and legal entities. (4) Location Ukraine is located in Eastern Europe and is surrounded by seven countries; Romania, Moldova, Slovakia, Hungary, and Poland in the west, Belarus in the north, and Russia in the east, as well as the Black Sea in the south. In order to exploit this geographical position, the Government of Ukraine established the “Comprehensive Program for Consolidation of Ukraine as a Transit Country for 2002-2010”, which was indicative of the importance attached to establishing international trunk roads providing new traffic systems for cross-border logistics.

KIEV AND THE MONTREUX CONVENTION: THE AIRCRAFT CARRIER THAT BECAME A CRUISER TO SQUEEZE THROUGH THE TURKISH STRAITS "When I use a word," Humpty Dumpty said, in rather a scornful tone, "it means just what I choose it to mean-neither more nor less." "The question is," said Alice, "whether you can make words mean so many different things." "The question is," said Humpty Dumpty, "which is to be master- that's all."' On July 18, 1976, the 40,000-ton Soviet naval vessel Kiev, sporting a 600-foot flight deck2 and a complement of helicopters and fixed- wing aircraft,3 steamed into the Mediterranean after completing its transit of the Turkish Straits.4 The Montreux Convention, which governs transit of the Turkish Straits, limits the aggregate tonnage of all foreign naval forces in transit through the Straits to 15,000 tons.5 Only in the case of capital ships6 does it allow Black Sea powers to exceed this limit.7 Although the Convention's definition of capital ships includes cruisers, it specifically excludes aircraft carriers.8 Nevertheless, Istanbul's military port authorities ac- 1.

Such an approach helps better appreciate ongoing developments in the Security Sector and the essence of problems related to national security. General assessments, conclusions and proposals are those of the authors and do not necessarily coincide with the positions of DCAF or the Razumkov Centre.

  • Developments in China's Coal-Fired Power Sector
    Developments in China’s coal-fired power sector Andrew Minchener CCC/163 January 2010 Copyright © IEA Clean Coal Centre ISBN 978-92-9029-483-2 Abstract China’s power generation capacity has increased rapidly to support the growth of the Chinese economy, and by end of 2008 it had reached 792 GWe, which comprised some 170 GWe of hydropower, 601 GWe of thermal power (nearly 75% of the total), almost all of which is coal fired, nearly 12 GWe wind power and 9 GWe nuclear. The expectation is that the overall capacity will grow to some 1500 GWe by 2020, but with a significant introduction of zero carbon and low carbon power generation technologies, such as nuclear, wind and solar power, together with further growth in hydropower and perhaps some additional natural gas fired plants. Coal fired power generation, although it will represent a smaller proportion of the total capacity in the future, will still grow in absolute terms in China. The average efficiency of the coal fired capacity will continue to rise significantly as the Government continues to introduce very large supercritical and ultra-supercritical pulverised coal units with good environmental controls, and large state of the art circulating fluidised bed combustion units, while closing small, old and low efficiency units. This coal power plant modernisation programme has involved cooperation and extensive technology transfer via licences and joint ventures with international equipment suppliers. Chinese manufacturers are now in a position where they have advanced the technical quality of their products such that they can gain significant export opportunities, especially as their products are very cost competitive compared to OECD options.
