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.
Applying the Inqua Scale to the Sofades 1954, Central Greece, Earthquake

Δελτίο της Ελληνικής Γεωλογικής Εταιρίας τομ. ΧΧΧΧ, Bulletin of the Geological Society of Greece vol. XXXX, 2007 2007 Proceedings of the 11th International Congress, Athens, May, Πρακτικά 11ου Διεθνούς Συνεδρίου, Αθήνα, Μάιος 2007 2007 APPLYING THE INQUA SCALE TO THE SOFADES 1954, CENTRAL GREECE, EARTHQUAKE Papathanassiou G.1, Valkaniotis S.1,2, and Pavlides S.1 1 Aristotle University of Thes Saloniki, Faculty of Sciences, Department of Geology, [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] 2 National Observatory of Athens, Geodynamic Institute Abstract Macroseismic intensity scales are used in order to measure the size of an earth quake using the impact of the ground shaking on humans, man made environment and nature. The INQUA scale is a new scale based solely on the earthquake-induced ground deformations, proposed by the INQUA Subcommission on Paleoseismicity. This scale is applied to the Sofades 1954 earthquake in order to test its accuracy and reliability. From the comparison among the evaluated intensities based on MM scale with the degrees of INQUA intensity at several locations, we conclude that, in case of earthquakes which triggered remarkable geological effects, these intensity values are about the same. Nonetheless, the use of INQUA scale is suggested in combination with the existing ones, as an assessing tool of the intensity based only on geological effects Key words: Intensity, Earthquake, INQUA, Greece.

Under average meteorological conditions, the island is water-suﬃcient (969 mm precipitation; theoretical water potential 3284 hm3; and total water use 610 hm3). Agriculture is by far the greatest user of water (78% of total water use), followed by domestic use (21%). Despite the high average water availability, water scarcity events commonly occur, particularly in the eastern-south part of the island, driven by local climatic conditions and seasonal or geographical mismatches between water availability and demand.

Civil Affairs Handbook on Greece

Preliminary Draft CIVIL AFFAIRS HANDBOOK on GREECE feQfiJtion Thirteen on fcSSLJC HJI4LTH 4ND S 4 N 1 T £ T I 0 N THE MILITARY GOVERNMENT DIVISION OFFICE OF THE PROVOST MARSHAL GENERAL Preliminary Draft INTRODUCTION Purposes of the Civil Affairs Handbook. International Law places upon an occupying power the obligation and responsibility for establishing government and maintaining civil order in the areas occupied. The basic purposes of civil affairs officers are thus (l) to as- sist the Commanding General of the combat units by quickly establishing those orderly conditions which will contribute most effectively to the conduct of military operations, (2) to reduce to a minimum the human suffering and the material damage resulting from disorder and (3) to create the conditions which will make it possible for civilian agencies to function effectively. The preparation of Civil Affairs Handbooks is a part of the effort of the War Department to carry out this obligation as efficiently and humanely as is possible. The Handbooks do not deal with planning or policy. They are rather ready reference source books of the basic factual information needed for planning and policy making. Public Health and Sanitation in Greece. As a result of the various occupations, Greece presents some extremely difficult problems in health and sanitation. The material in this section was largely prepared by the MILBANK MEMORIAL FUND and the MEDICAL INTELLI- GENCE BRANCH OF THE OFFICE OF THE SURGEON GENERAL. If additional data on current conditions can be obtained, it willJse incorporated in the final draft of the handbook for Greece as a whole.

Modelling Macroseismic Observations for Historical Earthquakes: the Cases of the M = 7.0, 1954 Sofades and M = 6.8, 1957 Velestino Events (Central Greece)

Finally, we also macroseismic intensities (IMM up to 9+) observed perform a sensitivity analysis of the fault location, within the broader Thessaly area. For this reason, taking into account the available neotectonic data we employ a modified stochastic method realised for the broader southern Thessaly fault zone. The by the EXSIM algorithm for extended sources, in finally determined fault locations are different than order to reproduce the damage distribution of these previously proposed, in agreement with the available earthquakes, in an attempt to combine existing earth- neotectonic information. The observed macroseismic quake information and appropriate scaling relations intensities are in good agreement with the ones derived with surface geology and to investigate the efficiency from the synthetic waveforms, verifying both the use- of the available macroseismic data. For site-effects fulness of the approach, as well as of the macroseismic assessment, we use a new digital geological map data used.
