The review also includes suggestions for further areas that should be designated within the scope of these two Directives. Although the two Directives have different objectives, the areas designated as sensitive or vulnerable are reviewed simultaneously because of the similarities in the designation process. The investigations will focus upon: • Checking that those waters that should be identified according to either Directive have been; • in the case of the Nitrates Directive, assessing whether vulnerable zones have been designated correctly and comprehensively. The identification of vulnerable zones and sensitive areas in relation to the Nitrates Directive and Urban Waste Water Treatment Directive is carried out according to both common and specific criteria, as these are specified in the two Directives. 1.1 THE URBAN WASTEWATER TREATMENT DIRECTIVE (91/271/EEC) The Directive concerns the collection, treatment and discharge of urban wastewater as well as biodegradable wastewater from certain industrial sectors. The designation of sensitive areas is required by the Directive since, depending on the sensitivity of the receptor, treatment of a different level is necessary prior to discharge.

The current process of changes in Europe is posing new and compelling challenges to regional co-operation in general and to co- operation in the fields of the environment and the security in particular.

  • Xanthippi Kotz Ag Ео Rg I- Georgios A. Kazam I As the Bulgarian Occupation of the Prefecture of Drama (1941-1944) and Its Cons
    XANTHIPPI KOTZ AG ЕО RG I- GEORGIOS A. KAZAM I AS THE BULGARIAN OCCUPATION OF THE PREFECTURE OF DRAMA (1941-1944) AND ITS CONSEQUENCES ON THE GREEK POPULATION ■*£->·- The Bulgarian occupation of Eastern Macedonia and Thrace during World War II is a subject as complex and sensitive as it is tragic, and yet it was dealt with by Greek writers only during the decades of the 1940’s and 1950’s. A study of the bibliography of this time leads U9 to the following unavoidable observations: a) The people that dealt with and wrote about the issue of the Bulgarian occupation were directly involved—by position or by nature—in the situation when and where it occurred, b) In many of the works which deal with the issue there is no desire to approach it scientifically, c) A strong nationalistic, disorienting tone is inherent in most of these works, d) Many of the relevant works draw so heavily upon previous authors that it is often difficult to speak of new self-contained work, e) Finally, there is a marked absence of information coming from archive material; even when such information does exist, it is more often than not, fragmentary*. The aim of this article is to provide an initial scientific record by a Greek author of the World War II Bulgarian occupation and of its consequences on the city and the area of the prefecture of Drama. Its principle aim is not, ho­ wever, to give a full catalogue of victims or an assessment of the extent of destruction etc., but rather to provide a brief, collective (and not necessarily exhaustive) picture of the Bulgarian occupation and its consequences on the Greek population.

  • The Evolution of the Stress Field in Eastern Macedonia and Thrace

XXXX, 2007 2007 Proceedings of the 11th International Congress, Athens, May, Πρακτικά 11ου Διεθνούς Συνεδρίου, Αθήνα, Μάιος 2007 2007 THE EVOLUTION OF THE STRESS FIELD IN EASTERN MACEDONIA AND THRACE Gkarlaouni C. , Papadimitriou E.1, Kilias A.2, Falalakis G.2, and Gemitzi A.3 ! Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, School of Geology, Department of Geophysics, hagarl@geo. auth.gr, ritsa@geo. auth.gr Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, School of Geology, Department of Geology, kilias@geo. auth.gr, [email protected] 3Democritus University of Thrace, Dept. of Environmental Engineering, Laboratory of Ecological Engineering, and Technology, [email protected] Abstract Eastern Macedonia and Thrace are characterized by moderate seismicity compared to the adjacent North Aegean area, as it is derived from both historical information and instrumental records. The known strong (M>6.5) historical earthquakes that occurred during the past three centuries, however, have caused appreciable casualties and for this reason the seismic hazard assessment in the study area is of considerable social importance. These events (Didimoteiho earthquake (M=7.4) in 1752, Komotini earthquake (M=6.7) in 1784 and Drama earthquake (M=7.3) in 1829) are associated with a fault zone that runs the area of interest from west to east, in neighboring faults or fault segments. Their consequential occurrence is examined in the framework of the evolution of the stress field by the calculation of Coulomb stress that is due to their coseismic slips as well as the long term tectonic loading on the regional major faults.

  • Fostering Regional Development in Eastern Macedonia and Thrace, Greece, Through Road Transport Projects
    This is a preprint of a paper accepted for publication in the Journal of Economic Analysis and Policy Fostering regional development in eastern Macedonia and Thrace, Greece, through road transport projects Christina Mavraki1, Garyfallos Arabatzis2, Apostolos Kantartzis3* & Chrisovalantis Malesios4 1Department of Forestry and Management of the Environment and Natural Resources, Democritus University of Thrace, 193 Pantazidou St., Orestiada, Greece, email: [email protected] 2Department of Forestry and Management of the Environment and Natural Resources, Democritus University of Thrace, 193 Pantazidou St., Orestiada, Greece, email: [email protected] 3Department of Forestry and Management of the Environment and Natural Resources, Democritus University of Thrace, 193 Pantazidou St., Orestiada, Greece, email: [email protected] * Corresponding author 4Operations & Information Management Department, Aston Business School, Aston University, Birmingham, UK, email: [email protected] Abstract The purpose of the paper is to evaluate the extent to which the road transport projects implemented within the Greek National Strategic Reference Framework (NSRF) 2007-2013 contributed to the economic development of eastern Macedonia and Thrace, Greece. These projects were included in the respective regional operational programs co-financed by the European Union (EU) and national funds. The paper discusses the EU‟s regional and cohesion policy which aims at reducing regional inequalities and ensuring social, economic and territorial cohesion. In Greece, cohesion policy implementation for the 2007-2013 period was achieved through the NSRF, 2007-2013, whose training philosophy and the priorities that it set are the focus of the present study. The research area concerns the region of eastern Macedonia and Thrace and, more specifically, the 21 municipalities that it consists of.

  • Active Faults in North Greece
    The Greek Database of Seismogenic Sources (GreDaSS): state-of-the-art for northern Greece. Caputo R.*, Chatzipetros A.°, Pavlides S.° and Sboras S.* *) Department of Earth Sciences, University of Ferrara, Italy °) Department of Geology, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Greece Abstract The Greek Database of Seismogenic Sources (GreDaSS) is a repository of geological, tectonic and active fault data for the Greek territory and its surroundings. In this paper, we present the state-of- the-art of an on-going project devoted to the building of GreDaSS, which represents the results of decades of investigations by the authors and a myriad of other researchers working on the active tectonics of the broader Aegean Region. The principal aim of this international project is to create a homogenized framework of all data relevant to the seismotectonics, and especially the seismic hazard assessment, of Greece and its surroundings as well as a common research platform for performing seismic hazard analyses, modelling and scenarios from specific seismogenic structures. In particular, we introduce and synthetically describe the results obtained (and included in the database) up to date relative to the northern sector of continental Greece and Aegean Sea. As a first step we collected all available data (both published and unpublished) relative to the historical and instrumental seismicity determining the causative faults. Following the experience of recent 'surprising' earthquakes (e.g. 1995 Kozani and 1999 Athens), we realized the deficiency of such approach and decided to include in GreDaSS also active faults (i.e. seismogenic sources) recognized on the basis of geological, structural, morphotectonic, palaeoseismological and geophysical investigations.

Nine endemic fish species have been identified and eight of them fall into "Endangered" or "Vulnerable" categories. The endemic Prespa Trout, Salmo peristericus, is classified as Endangered and its limited dispersal at the headwaters of few streams renders its conservation a priority for local stakeholders. Following long term research on the species populations in Greece and the FYR of Macedonia, a Species Action Plan (SAP) has been developed, in order to set the priorities and describe the necessary actions towards the conservation of the species. The application of the SAP aims at (i) documenting the current ecological situation of the streams, (ii) documenting the health of the remaining populations of Prespa trout, (iii) developing a standardized long-term monitoring scheme, (iv) assessing the relative importance of suspected threats, (v) implementing first implementation measures for improving stream and trout population health and (vi) promoting sustainable development by integrating stakeholder participation and transboundary co-operation towards the conservation of the species. The Species Action Plan constitutes a useful tool, with specific guidelines for the conservation of the endemic Prespa Trout.
