STUDY of DRINKING WATER QUALITY in CAHUL DISTRICT Veronica Filimon1*, Cristina Obreja1, Simona Butan2 STUDY OF DRINKING WATER QUALITY IN CAHUL DISTRICT Veronica Filimon1*, Cristina Obreja1, Simona Butan2 1”Dunarea de Jos” University of Galati, Cross-Border Faculty, 47 Domneasca Street, 800008, Galati, Romania 2”Dunarea de Jos” University of Galati, Faculty of Sciences and Environment, 47 Domneasca Street, 800008, Galati, Romania * Corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract Groundwater is the main source of drinking water in the Republic of Moldova for the entire rural population and 30% of the urban population (65% of the total population of the country). In this study, the quality of drinking water from Cahul District (The Republic of Moldova) was investigated. Various water samples were collected from wells of rural localities, namely, Taraclia de Salcie, Doina, Huluboaia, Al.I. Cuza, having as reference the water from the central network of Cahul. Organoleptic, physico-chemical and microbiological analysis were performed. The analyzed water samples have no large deviations from the standards, except of the water from the village of Al.I. Cuza. This situation is very serious, because for a part of the population of Al.I.Cuza, this well is the only source of water and there is a possibility that some habitans use it as drinking water. In the future, our main goal is to perform the analysis of several water samples in Cahul County, in order to identify the suitable drinking water sources. Introductions The supply of drinking water is a major problem for rural localities in the Republic of Moldova. The large urban localities and some surrounding villages are supplied centrally with water from the river Nistru and the Prut, but in rural areas, where 60% of the population is located, water from groundwater and deep water is supplied for drinking purpose. The situation of drinking water is alarming, environmental pollution coming from and due to lack of systems gives sewerage and inadequate waste water treatment. At present, there is no unified monitoring of water quality in the Republic of Moldova. About 60% of the population of the Republic of Moldova consumes water polluted by lack of or degradation of drinking water supply networks; 92% of the 1689 localities do not have centralized water supply systems, the population is forced to consume water from wells that do not meet hygienic rigors; 80% of the 130 thousand fountains are heavily polluted by nitrates and nitrites. There are studies which state that the state of degradation of population health is due to 80 % of polluted water or water scarcity. In this respect, legislative measures must be taken to prevent disease, to control the quality of water from groundwater, used as drinking water in households. Materials and Methods The water of the fountain was collected from the Taraclia de Salcie (sample T), Doina (sample D), Huluboaia (sample H) and Al.I. Cuza (sample C) localities. Results Conclusions The present study is just one step in the attempt to monitor the quality of drinking water in certain rural areas of the Republic of Moldova. Of the four samples analyzed, sample C, in Al.I. Cuza locality, proved to be non-compliant and is not recommended for consumption as drinking water. Tests should be carried out to References [1] McKee, M., Balabanova, D., Akingbade, K., Pomerleau, J., Stickley, A., Rose, R., & Haerpfer, C. determine the quality of the well water periodically before Acknowledgements consuming it as drinking water.

  • The Evolution of the Road Network on the Current Territory of the Republic of Moldova in the Period 1918-1940 Vitalie Mamot
    ECOTERRA - Journal of Environmental Research and Protection The evolution of the road network on the current territory of the Republic of Moldova in the period 1918-1940 Vitalie Mamot Tiraspol State University, Chișinău, Republic of Moldova. Corresponding author: V. Mamot, [email protected] Abstract. In the history of the Republic of Moldova, the roads were one of the main premises which determined, to a large extent, the socio-economic development of the territory and of the population, who lived here. At the beginning, the roads represented natural itineraries of plains or valleys, in the riverbeds which missed any kind of arrangement. These itineraries were formed and shaped over a long historical period. Changes in the itinerary directions and contents occurred only in case of the geographical landscape modifications or in case of some changes of attraction poles in the network of human settlements under the influence of different natural, economic, social and military factors. The purpose of the article is to restore and analyse the evolution of the road network on the current territory of the Republic of Moldova in the interwar period (1918-1940), when the current territory of the Republic of Moldova was found within Greater Romania. Key Words: road network, roads, road transport, counties. Introduction. The evolution of the transport network is closely dependent on the influence of external and internal factors (Тархов 2005). The first category is attributed to the political and geographical factors (change of state borders, military actions etc.); economic and geographic (the network of human settlements, the direction and configuration of the main transport flows, the degree and character of the economic valorisation of the territory etc.); economic growth or economic crisis; the diffusion of technological innovations in the field of transport; physical and geographical factors.

  • Bulgarians Print Page Close Window
    World Directory of Minorities Europe MRG Directory –> Moldova –> Bulgarians Print Page Close Window Bulgarians Profile Bulgarians live in the rural south of Moldova; 65,662 according to the 2004 census. Some 79 per cent of Moldovan Bulgarians claim Bulgarian as their first language, and 68 per cent identify Russian as their second language. Historical context Like the Gagauz, Bulgarians arrived in Bessarabia in the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries seeking refuge from Ottoman persecution. Bulgarian immigration was also encouraged by co-religionist Russia. Subsequently, many assimilated to Russian culture and the rest became highly Russified. The recorded numbers of Bulgarians in Moldova fell from some 177,000 at the time of the formation of the MASSR in 1940 to 88,000 in 1989. From the late 1980s, Moldovan Bulgarians established links to Bulgaria, and the Bulgarian minority in Moldova has been the subject of bilateral cooperation between Bulgaria and Moldova. In January 1999 Bulgarians in the Moldovan district of Taraclia, where about half of Moldova's Bulgarian population resides, voted in an illegal referendum to protest against proposed administrative boundary changes. The changes would have abolished Taraclia district (a Soviet-era raion) and attached the area to neighbouring Cahul county, in the process transforming the Bulgarian population from a two- thirds local majority to a minority of 16 per cent. The principal fear of local Bulgarians was that they would lose state subsidies for Bulgarian language tuition in the district if they no longer comprised a local majority. The result was a 92 per cent vote against the boundary change, indicating that local Moldovans had voted with the Bulgarian population against the changes, reportedly due to the proposed move of some social services out of Taraclia to Cahul.

The aim of the research is to reconstruct the events that occurred in a very complex and equally controversial period in the history of Cahul county –the establishment of the soviet occupation regime in summer 1940. In order to elucidate the subject, was used the method of content analysis of the official documents drawn up by the competent authorities of the “Lower Danube” Land, contained in the archive funds. A reliable source of information on the early days of soviet occupation is the refugees’ testimonies from Bessarabia.
