The Central Regions and the Sofia Agglomeration Area
Maria Shishmanova THE CENTRAL REGIONS AND THE SOFIA AGGLOMERATION AREA Abstract. The research presents central regions in Bulgaria using taxonometric method with relevant conclusions. Each municipality in central regions is particularly examined by the elaborated methodic materials. The developed agglomeration areas are situated in the central regions. Sofia agglomeration area is presented using General Spatial Plan of Sofia municipality and Municipal Development Plan (MDP) of Sofia metropolitan municipality. It is set out the vision of development and its priorities, objectives and measures. Key words: central regions, agglomeration areas, Sofia agglomeration area, General Spatial Plan, Municipal Development Plan. Introduction The Central regions comprise 45 percent of the Bulgarian territory. The agglomeration areas are formed in them. The present study examines the development of the Sofia agglomeration area – a metropolis in the central regions of Bulgaria. The agglomeration areas are formed within the range of the central regions in Bulgaria – 6 agglomeration areas with a center – a large city, 30 agglomeration areas with a center – a medium-sized town. Six of the agglomeration areas are formations with more than three municipalities, five of them are with three municipalities each, ten are with 2 municipalities and the rest 15 are autonomous municipalities with an established core. These areas represent the backbone of the economy and social and human potential of the country. They have the highest degree of competitiveness and attractiveness for investment and innovation. Eighty eight municipalities with a total population of 5885455 people1 are included within the scope of the agglomeration areas, which constitutes 77.4 percent of the population of the country. -

The Slugs of Bulgaria (Arionidae, Milacidae, Agriolimacidae
POLSKA AKADEMIA NAUK INSTYTUT ZOOLOGII ANNALES ZOOLOGICI Tom 37 Warszawa, 20 X 1983 Nr 3 A n d rzej W ik t o r The slugs of Bulgaria (A rionidae , M ilacidae, Limacidae, Agriolimacidae — G astropoda , Stylommatophora) [With 118 text-figures and 31 maps] Abstract. All previously known Bulgarian slugs from the Arionidae, Milacidae, Limacidae and Agriolimacidae families have been discussed in this paper. It is based on many years of individual field research, examination of all accessible private and museum collections as well as on critical analysis of the published data. The taxa from families to species are sup plied with synonymy, descriptions of external morphology, anatomy, bionomics, distribution and all records from Bulgaria. It also includes the original key to all species. The illustrative material comprises 118 drawings, including 116 made by the author, and maps of localities on UTM grid. The occurrence of 37 slug species was ascertained, including 1 species (Tandonia pirinia- na) which is quite new for scientists. The occurrence of other 4 species known from publications could not bo established. Basing on the variety of slug fauna two zoogeographical limits were indicated. One separating the Stara Pianina Mountains from south-western massifs (Pirin, Rila, Rodopi, Vitosha. Mountains), the other running across the range of Stara Pianina in the^area of Shipka pass. INTRODUCTION Like other Balkan countries, Bulgaria is an area of Palearctic especially interesting in respect to malacofauna. So far little investigation has been carried out on molluscs of that country and very few papers on slugs (mostly contributions) were published. The papers by B a b o r (1898) and J u r in ić (1906) are the oldest ones. -

A Change in a Child Is a Change for Bulgaria Annual Report 2015
A CHANGE IN A CHILD IS A CHANGE FOR BULGARIA ANNUAL REPORT 2015 ABOUT NNC The National Network for Children (NNC) is an alliance of 131 civil society organisations and supporters, working with and for children and families across the whole country. Promotion, protection and observing the rights of the child are part of the key principles that unite us. We do believe that all policies and practices, that affect directly or indirectly children should be based first and foremost on the best interests of the child. Furthermore they should be planned, implemented and monitored with a clear assessment of the impact on children and young people, and with their active participation. OUR VISION The National Network for Children works towards a society where every child has their own family and enjoys the best opportunities for life and development. There is a harmony between the sectoral policies for the child and the family, and the child rights and welfare are guaranteed. OUR MISSION The National Network for Children advocates for the rights and welfare of children by bringing together and developing a wide, socially significant network of organisations and supporters. OUR GOALS • Influence for better policies for children and families; • Changing public attitudes to the rights of the child; • Development of a model for child participation; • Development of the National Network for Children; • Improving the capacity of the Network and its member organisations; • Promotion of the public image of the National Network for Children.

Alaska Range
Alaska Range Introduction The heavily glacierized Alaska Range consists of a number of adjacent and discrete mountain ranges that extend in an arc more than 750 km long (figs. 1, 381). From east to west, named ranges include the Nutzotin, Mentas- ta, Amphitheater, Clearwater, Tokosha, Kichatna, Teocalli, Tordrillo, Terra Cotta, and Revelation Mountains. This arcuate mountain massif spans the area from the White River, just east of the Canadian Border, to Merrill Pass on the western side of Cook Inlet southwest of Anchorage. Many of the indi- Figure 381.—Index map of vidual ranges support glaciers.

Index glaciers range in size from tiny unnamed cirque glaciers with areas of less map modified from Field than 1 km2 to very large valley glaciers with lengths up to 76 km (Denton (1975a).

Assessment of Contamination with Opportunistic Pathogenic Bacteria from Family Enterobacteriaceae in Sediments of Iskar River
Supplement 1 Ecological Engineering and Environment Protection, IX, 2017, p. 47-55 ASSESSMENT OF CONTAMINATION WITH OPPORTUNISTIC PATHOGENIC BACTERIA FROM FAMILY ENTEROBACTERIACEAE IN SEDIMENTS OF ISKAR RIVER Ivaylo Yotinov, Yovana Todorova, Lyubomir Kenderov, Yana Topalova Abstract: Fecal pollution from municipal wastewater discharges is an extremely serious problem for aquatic ecosystems. This type of pollution is also found in the waters and sediments of the Iskar River in its upper and middle valley. From a microbiological point of view, an indicator of such contamination is the presence of high amounts of opportunistic pathogenic microorganisms of the family Enterobacteriaceae. An important feature is that, except in the waters where they are normally found, large amounts of these bacteria can also accumulate in sediments. The purpose of this study is to compare the contamination with opportunistic pathogenic bacteria from the Enterobacteriaceae in sediments from the upper and middle part of the Iskar River. In addition, a comparison of the quantity of entero-bacteria with the ecological state indicators was made by Regulation N-4 of 14.09.2012 on characterization of surface water. From the results of this study, the higher amounts of entero-bacteria were found in the sediments from the middle part of the Iskar River. This is largely related to the strongly negative effect of the urbanized area of Sofia as well as the lack of functioning wastewater treatment plants in the middle of the Iskar River. The results for entero- bacteria from the Upper Iskar subcatchment, also demonstrated a significant contamination with fecal character. As a probable reason for this can be the discharge of Samokov WWTP as well as the unregulated point sources of pollution in this region. -

For every individual species, that is extant in every reported cave and gallery, as well as the authors who have made the report, is included. New data, most recently gathered are re ported as well. Several species are new for the cave fauna of Bulgaria, some others are all together new to the caves. One species is new for the Bulgarian fauna. The number of the established up until now Lepidoptera species in the caves and galleries in Bulgaria is 32. Introduction For a considerable length of time the Bulgarian cave fauna has been of interest to many researchers, both Bulgarians and foreign. Although considerable data concerning the fauna of Lepidoptera of the caves and galleries in Bulgaria exists, having been published in nu merous articles, up until now only one study (Skalski , 1972) concerns the Lepidoptera cave fauna. -
