The environmental situation regarding air emissions, before and after the planned rehabilitation, is compared. Handling of rest products and other kinds of waste such as asbestos is also being described. 6.2 Present situation 6.2.1 Location The district heating system in Riga is mainly supplied with heat from eight large plants: TEC-l, TEC-2, Andrejsala, Imanta, Zasulauks, Daugavgriva, Ziepniekkalns and Vecmilgravis. TEC 1, TEC2 and Andrejsala are owned by Latvenergo and the other district heating plants belong to Rigas Siltums. The plants in Riga had the following capacity/production in 1997: Table 6.2.1.1 Fuel, ca pacity and produc ion of the district heating plants in Riga.

Altogether the small plants produced 228828 Gcal in 1997.

' . /ran.l t X \4 Most of the larger district heating plants are located outside the city center, except for the Latvenergo owned Andrejsala, which is located quite close to the city, right on the riverbank of the Daugava. No private houses seem however to be situated in the direct neighborhood of the plant. TEC 2 is situated outside the city, south- east of Riga, in an industrial area. TEC I is located north of the city center, on the outskirts of the city, in a small industrial area. Ziepniekkalns is situated outside the city, to the south of Riga. Daugavgriva is situated in a small suburb north of Riga, on the left bank of the Daugava, quite close to the Baltic Sea. Vecmilgravis is located in another suburb north of Riga and right of the river Daugava. Several of the small boiler houses - and also the larger district heating plants Imanta and Zasulauks - are located quite close to the city centre, on the west side of the Daugava. Most of these small plants are however fired with gas, which means that not many vehicles have to pass through the central areas in order to provide the plants with fuel. December 21., 1998 - FVB- g.id&973601drqfi-I -p-1 rg dod Riga District Heating RehabilitationProject 3 Final Report, Section 6 EnvironmentalImpact Review In general the location of the heating plants is good from transportation point of view. 6.2.2 Fuels The two mostly used fuels are natural gas (6800 Tcal in 1997) and heavy fuel oil (900 Tcal in 1997). In TEC 1, 470 Tcal of peat was combusted in 1997. Only small amounts of wood and coal are used in the system.

Upon arrival the mazut is heated by steam and poured into a receiving reservoir. During this process HC is emitted to the air. The estimated amount of emitted hydrocarbon is presented in the table below. The storage of mazut in oil containers also causes emissions of HC. This too is presented in the table below.

Since that time mazut was not burnt. The system for unloading and storing mazut is sometimes (like in Daugavgriva) in a bad condition, which creates undesirable working conditions. Therefore, an investigation should be undertaken to see if it is possible from an economnicalpoint of view to carry out the unloading of mazut in a more environmentally friendly way.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF THE AREA The length of the Latvian coastline along the Baltic proper and the Gulf of Riga is 496 km. Circa 123 km of the coastline is affected by erosion. The case area ‘Gulf of Riga’ focuses on coastal development within the Riga metropolitan area, which includes the coastal zone of two urban municipalities (pilsetas) – Riga and Jurmala (Figure 1). Riga is the capital city of Latvia. It is located along the lower stream and the mouth of the Daugava river. Its several districts (Bulli, Daugavgriva, Bolderaja, Vecdaugava, Mangali and Vecaki) lie in the deltas of Daugava and Lielupe rivers and on the Gulf of Riga coast. Jurmala municipality is adjacent to Riga from the west. It stretches ca. 30 km along the Gulf of Riga. It is the largest Latvian and Eastern Baltic seaside resort. 1.1 Physical process level 1.1.1 Classification According to the coastal typology adopted for the EUROSION project, the case study area can be described as: 3b. Wave-dominated sediment. Plains. Microtidal river delta. Within this major coastal type several coastal formations and habitats occur, including the river delta and sandy beaches with bare and vegetated sand dunes.

Espe- plemented, would transform Riga into an attractive and sustainable city. These cially European countries, which were in the former Soviet Union, are facing ample strategies also have the potentials to transform other areas plagued by the prob- issues on dealing with mass housing districts, which cover a great part of cities. lems associated with mass housing estates. Most of them are in a critical condition and in necessary need of renovation. Never- theless, they are strongly criticized by researchers, as uncomfortable places to live, Key Words: mass housing estates, sustainable revitalisation, microrayon, urban which do not fit the human scale. These post – Soviet mass housing estates, which transformation, sustainable urban design. are called ‘microrayons’, is an immense headache to all post - Soviet countries. Riga, which is the capital of Latvia and the biggest city in the Baltic States, can be considered as a special case because of its historical and political situation.

Urban forests can strongly Abstract: - The article focuses on the analysis of impact of influence the physical/biological environment and mitigate recreational pressure on Myrtillosa type pine forest vegetation many impacts of urban development by moderating climate, in Riga city, Latvia. The composition of the plant conserving energy, carbon dioxide, and water, improving air communities, projective coverage of tree, shrub, herb and quality, controlling rainfall runoff and flooding, lowering noise moss layer as well as the coverage of each separate species and levels, harboring wildlife, and enhancing the attractiveness of plant strategy types has been evaluated. All urban Myrtillosa cities. In an urbanized society, urban green areas are important type pine forests can be divided into two groups – unimpacted as a place for contact with nature. The level of biodiversity of and impacted pine forests. Insignificant changes of forest urban green areas is often surprisingly high, representing environment are preserved in in three plant communities 1 - nature close to where people live. Urban forests can be viewed Pyrola rotundifolia-Pinus sylvestris (Bulli and Mangalsala), 2 as a ’living technology’, a key component of the urban – Pleurozium schreberii-Pinus sylvestris (Bolderaja, Jaunciems and Smerlis), 3 – Calamagrostis epigeios-Pinus infrastructure that helps to maintain a healthy environment for sylvestris (Jugla and Bikernieki).

  • Districts of Riga

    Districts of Riga

    Districts of Riga RSU is located in “Dzirciems” district on the left bank of the River Daugava, or what we, the inhabitants of Riga call “The other side of the river” (Pārdaugava); however, the majority of RSU students choose to live on the right bank of the River Daugava. When looking for a flat to rent, you will be given an option to choose the region in Riga you are interested in. Below you will find our suggestions for picking a place to live. While the Centre in general can be advised, you can also look for other options either on the right or the left bank of the river. Please note that there are many other regions in Riga (see the map), but they are either too far away, or have very bad transport connections, so we are not listing them here. The most popular rental districts among RSU students are marked with an asterisk*. Council of Riga, Department of Development.
