Objectives of the investment project The implementation of a modern integrated water cycle in Dobrich is one environmentally friendly project that will help improve the quality of life of the population of Dobrich and the quality of local environment. Тhe main objectives of the Feasibility Study for Dobrich are related to the main objective of the policy for waters, the protection of water resources. As per Directive 91/271/EEC, the measures are aimed at improving the quality of water resources. Funding under Operational Programme Environment 2007- 2013 in Stage I is necessary to ensure the quality of waste water discharged into water bodies to meet European requirements. This is achieved with integrated measures, related with management of the water cycle in urban areas: - Rehabilitation, reconstruction and extension of the water supply system and the facilities, associated with its functioning. Reduction of losses in the water supply network and securing the population with sufficient quantity of drinking water with good quality at reduced operating costs. Indirect contribution to the reduction of infiltration into the sewer system. - Rehabilitation and reconstruction of the sewer system and the facilities associated with its functioning. Collection of all wastewaters and bringing them to UWWTP Dobrich for treatment up to specified requirements. Not allowing direct discharge into the water bodies, so as not to pollute the waters of the water receiver. Reduction of infiltration thus securing also more efficient operation of UWWTP so as not to adversely affect the development of ecosystems and the development of biodiversity in the region respectively. Prevention of health risk to the population in the region. - Rehabilitation, reconstruction and upgrade of the existing UWWTP Dobrich, replacement of morally and physically obsolete equipment in some technological units and construction of new facilities. Achieving higher level of water treatment. Upgrade of the sludge management facility through commissioning modern equipment for anaerobic stabilization of the sludge generated in the treatment process and its subsequent drying.

The crowd stood still in expectation. Posing for a while against each other, the dancers jumped simultaneously. Dabaka moved with dexterity to Christina. She gently ran on her toes passing by him. Both looked at each other from head to toe as if wanting to show their superiority and continued their dance. Christina waved her white hand- kerchief, swayed her white neck like a swan and gently floated in the vortex of sound, created by the merry bagpipe. Her face turned hot… Dabaka was in complete trance. With hands freely crossed on his back he moved like a deer performing wondrous jumps in front of her … Then, shaking his head to let the heavy sweat drops fall from his face, he made a movement as if retreating.

  • Structure and Management of the National Automated System for Permanent Control of the Radiation Gamma Background in Bulgaria
    Land Forces Academy Review Vol. XXII, No 2(86), 2017 STRUCTURE AND MANAGEMENT OF THE NATIONAL AUTOMATED SYSTEM FOR PERMANENT CONTROL OF THE RADIATION GAMMA BACKGROUND IN BULGARIA Nicolai Todorov DOLCHINKOV “Vasil Levski” National Military University, Veliko Tarnovo, Bulgaria [email protected] Nicolai Bonev NICHEV “Vasil Levski” National Military University, Veliko Tarnovo, Bulgaria [email protected] ABSTRACT In the up-to-date complicated political situation it’s imperative to monitor the status of the radiation background not only in Bulgaria, but also in Europe and worldwide. Since 1992 in Bulgaria operates an automated system for permanent control of the radiation gamma background (NASPCRGB). The system has been modernized by means of a European program during its last operation period and is connected with EURDEP – the European System for Exchange of Radiological Data of the European Commission. The operation of the System and its management are assigned to the Executive Environment Agency of the Ministry of Environment and Water Resources. In the present article we have shown the structure of the National Automated System for permanent control of the radiation gamma background (NASPCRGB) and its functions. KEYWORDS: radiation background, control, management, probe, data 1. Introduction Nichev, 2016). Later it was found out, that After the radioactivity was discovered the space radiation comprises two in the beginning of the century the scientists components: primary radiation – of galactic had considered, that only the soil and the origin, penetrating into the atmosphere, and rocks were a source of radiation into the secondary space radiation – originating atmosphere. Yet very soon it had been from the reaction of the cosmic rays with discovered that when the altitude increased the nuclei of the air elements, with the (in experiments with balloons), also the space dust, precipitating on the planet and radioactive radiations increased, resulting others.

    Veselin Arnaudov, Radoslav Andreev, Hristina Kutinkova, Svilen Raikov PRELIMINARY COMMUNICATION First record of Eurytoma schreineri Schreiner (Hym., Eurytomidae) in Bulgaria Veselin Arnaudov1, Radoslav Andreev2, Hristina Kutinkova1, Svilen Raikov3 1 Fruit growing institute – Plovdiv, 12 Ostromila Str., 4004 Plovdiv, Bulgaria ([email protected]) 2 Department of Entomology, Agricultural University, Mendeleev 12, 4000 Plovdiv, Bulgaria 3 University of Shumen “Ep. K. Preslavsky”, 30 Universitetsca Str., 9700 Shumen, Bulgaria ABSTRACT The plum seed wasp, Eurytoma schreineri Schr. (Schreiner, 1908) is non-native species insect for Bulgarian fauna. This species was first recordеd in Bulgaria in 2013, in the regions Dobrich and Silistra, in the northeastern part of the country. E. schreineri is oligophagous. The larva feeds in the endosperm of stone fruits, mainly in plum and apricot and rarely sweet and sour cherry. Attacked fruits visibly did not differ from healthy. Infested fruits caused massive fruit falls and drying. Some preliminary observations on its phenology, main morphological characters and differences from other related species are mentioned. Keywords: Prunus domestica, plum seed wasp, Eurytoma schreineri, adult emergence, Northeast Bulgaria Introduction Species of the genus Eurytoma (Hymenoptera: Eurytomidae) display a wide range of host and biology, with eight Palearctic species associated with stone fruit. Unlike most chalcidoids which are parasitoids, the larvae of some species of the family Eurytomidae are phytophagous. The following five species are of economic importance for stone fruits: Eurytoma amygdali Enderlein for almond and wild almond; Eurytoma schreineri Schreiner for apricot, cherry, plum and blackthorn, Eurytoma maslovskii Nikolskaja for peach, Eurytoma padi Vereshchagin for bird cherry and Eurytoma samsonowi Vassiliev for almond, apricot, plum and peach.
