Environmental Management Plan ROAD DEPARTMENT OF GEORGIAN MINISTRY OF REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT AND INFRASTRUCTURE CONTRACT: #SLRP III/CS/QCBS-01 PREPARATION OF DETAILED DESIGN AND BIDDING DOCUMENTS FOR REHABILITATION OF 10 ROAD (Approx. 100 km) SECTIONS UNDER THE THIRD SECONDARY AND LOCAL ROADS PROJECT (SLRPIII) Road Name: Kutaisi ~ Alpana ~ Mamisoni Pass (Border of Russian Federation) (S 16), Section of Km 50 ~ Km 70 (Alpana ~ Chrebalo) Road No. 5, Stage I, Under the Terms of Reference Environmental Management Plan VOLUME VI CONSULTANT: SUB-CONSULTANT: TBILISI 2015 PART 1: GENERAL PROJECT AND SITE INFORMATION INSTITUTIONAL &ADMINISTRATIVE Country Georgia Project title Rehabilitation of Kutaisi ~ Alpana ~ Mamisoni Pass (Border of Russian Federation), (S 16), Section of Km 50 ~ Km 70 (Alpana ~ Chrebalo) Scope of project Many parts of exposed gravel surface and asphalt pavement surface are damaged i.e., plastic deformation, pot holes and activity due to the traffic / environmental conditions, and stagnant water at surface layer. Providing of asphalt surface layer is essential to recover road function in terms of driving convenience and driving safety. Existing pipes are consisted of reinforced concrete, steel, and asbestos-cement type. Most of existing pipes will be repalced due to the insufficient capacity and dysfunctional. Three (3) bridges with normal/sound condition are in project road. Repair of bridge decks, rails, abutments and wing walls are necessary. Also, two galleries for landslide and mudflow protection are on this road. One of them needs to be rehabilitated due to insufficient capacity. Many retaining walls to resist steep cutting slope and ensure effective road width will be considered. The traffic facilities such as road signs, pencing, bus staion, and etc. will be provieded and replaced with new ones since there are not existed appropriate traffic safety facilities to minimize traffic accidents. General information of detailed design for rehabilitation work is as follows: - Design speed: 50 km/h - Width of carriageway: 6.5 m - Width of Shoulder: 0.5 ~ 1.0 m - Number of carriageway: 2 lanes / 2 directions - Pavement thickness: Asphalt layer (4+6cm), Crushed stone layer with AC recycling (16cm) Institutional WB Project Management Local Counterpart and/or Recipient arrangements (Project Team Leader) (Name and Tsageri and Ambrolauri contacts) Natalya Stankevich Giorgi Tsereteli Municipality Implementation WB Local Counterpart Supervision Local Inspectorate Contractor arrangements Safeguard Supervision Technical Supervisor Supervision (Name and Darejan Kapanadze (not selected yet) (not selected yet) contacts) SITE DESCRIPTION Kutaisi ~ Alpana ~ Mamisoni Pass Road (Border of Russian Federation), (S 16), Name of site Section of Km 50 ~ Km 70 (Alpana ~ Chrebalo), Ambrolauri and Tsageri municipalities.

  • Prehistoric Metallurgy in Mountainous Colchis (Lechkhumi)

Janelidze Institute of Geology, Ivane Javakhishvili Tbilisi State University, Tbilisi, Georgia (Presented by Academy Member David Lordkipanidze) ABSTRACT. The present paper is an introduction to our new archaeometallurgical research project and gives a brief overview and context to the recent results of exploratory fieldwork and some excavation conducted in the Lechkhumi region of mountainous Colchis (in particular the Tsageri Municipally of this part of West Georgia,) and their place in an already established archaeological context. Lechkhumi is one of the historic provinces of West Georgia and because of archaeological metalwork finds here forms a significant part of the known Colchian bronze culture and is now considered to be an important centre of prehistoric copper and bronze metallurgy. However, Lechkhumi has been archaeologically perhaps the least studied region in Georgia so far. Current interdisciplinary investigations of the late Bronze Age copper sites of Lechkhumi region is an attempt to establish and assess the significance of the region and its place in the contemporary metallurgical production and culture of this part of ancient Colchis. The results of recent archaeometallurgical investigations conducted in mountainous Colchis and in particular in Lechkhumi are introduced in the paper. Thirteen unknown archaeometallurgical sites are defined in the study area. Fragments of metallurgical production: metallurgical furnace, tuyeres and abundant slags have been obtained as a result of archaeological excavations conducted since 2016 on the site Dogurashi-I on the left bank of the river Tskhenistskali.

  • Local Economic Development Plan Tsageri Municipality Georgia
    Local Economic Development Plan Tsageri Municipality Georgia Tsageri 2020 1. Summary content The Economic Development Plan prepared by Tsageri Municipality is a jointly prepared document by the public and private sectors, which, together with a long-term vision and goals, defines the measures to be taken within 2 years. The inability to import ecologically clean products into the regional and national markets, state programs supporting local businesses, the opportunity to increase the number of visitors, creates a precondition for Tsageri Municipality to become famous for its ecological agricultural products and tourism opportunities. In an environment conducive to business development, where families have the opportunity to earn an income. In order to make this vision a reality, the Local Economic Development Partnership has set the following goals: to support local production; Increase the tourism opportunities of the municipality; Develop local human resource skills. To achieve these goals, the plan envisages the following actions: organizing an annual Georgian wine festival; Supporting the marketing activities of local producers; Arranging a tourist exhibition space in the city; Production of an active tourist information-image campaign; Arrangement of infrastructure on tourist locations; Training of human resources employed in the field of tourism; Creating a dialogue platform between the municipality, the employer and the schools. The total budget of the plan is 802 020 GEL (250 624 Euros), of which the share of the local budget is 133 324 GEL (41663 Euros) 17%, 377 538 GEL (117 980 Euros) 47% will be attracted from the high level budget; 36% of the 291,158 GEL (90,986 Euro) activities will be funded through donors.

  • GEORGIA Second Edition March 2010
    WHO DOES WHAT WHERE IN DISASTER RISK REDUCTION IN GEORGIA Second edition March 2010 Georgian National Committee of Disaster Risk Reduction & Environment Sustainable Development FOREWORD Georgia is a highly disaster-prone country, which frequently experiences natural hazards (e.g. earthquakes, floods, landslides, mudflows, avalanches, and drought) as well as man-made emergencies (e.g. industrial accidents and traffic accidents). Compounding factors such as demographic change, unplanned urbanization, poorly maintained infrastructure, lax enforcement of safety standards, socio-economic inequities, epidemics, environmental degradation and climate variability amplify the frequency and intensity of disasters and call for a proactive and multi-hazard approach. Disaster risk reduction is a cross-cutting and complex development issue. It requires political and legal commitment, public understanding, scientific knowledge, careful development planning, responsible enforcement of policies and legislation, people-centred early warning systems, and effective disaster preparedness and response mechanisms. Close collaboration of policy-makers, scientists, urban planners, engineers, architects, development workers and civil society representatives is a precondition for adopting a comprehensive approach and inventing adequate solutions. Multi-stakeholder and inter-agency platforms can help provide and mobilize knowledge, skills and resources required for mainstreaming disaster risk reduction into development policies, for coordination of planning and programmes,
