Trapeziotis, University of Ioannina, Society for the protection of Trichonida, Thestieon Municipality, Hellenic Ministry for the environment physical planning and public works Introduction Lake Trichonida is one of the most important lakes in the country, as well as an internal waterland of immense ecological significance. However, this precious ecosystem is heavily taxed by pollution caused by the urbanization of the lands sur- rounding the lake, and by the growth of farmlands and cattle-grounds on its perimeter. A viable strategy toward conserving and benefiting from the natural order must encompass extensive sci- entific research as well as ecotouristic exploitation of the lake’ s resources. We sincerely hope that this guide will provide a motive for a responsible and respectful protection of this natural treasure. Panayotis Dion. Dimopoulos, Ass.

The 2018 Report is extremely important to us, as 2018 signals the operational completion of our project, and during this year: A) Both the construction and the full operation of the Ionia Odos motorway have been completed, a project linking 2 Regions, 4 prefectures and 10 Municipalities, giving a boost to development not only in Western Greece and Epirus, but in the whole country, B) Significant infrastructure upgrade projects have also been designed, implemented and completed at the A.TH.E Motorway section from Metamorphosis in Attica to Scarfia, a section we operate, maintain and manage. During the first year of the full operation of the motorways - with 500 employees in management and operation, with more than 350 kilometres of modern, safe motorways in 7 prefectures of our country with a multitude of local communities - we incorporated in our daily operations actions, activities and programs we had designed, aiming at supporting and implementing the key strategic and development pillars of our company for the upcoming years.
