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. This activity results mainly from from the space radiation (Dolchinkov and light radionuclides, such as: berrylium, DOI: 10.1515/raft-2017-0016 © 2017.

    Annex REPORT FOR 2019 UNDER THE “HEALTH CARE” PRIORITY of the NATIONAL ROMA INTEGRATION STRATEGY OF THE REPUBLIC OF BULGARIA 2012 - 2020 Operational objective: A national monitoring progress report has been prepared for implementation of Measure 1.1.2. “Performing obstetric and gynaecological examinations with mobile offices in settlements with compact Roma population”. During the period 01.07—20.11.2019, a total of 2,261 prophylactic medical examinations were carried out with the four mobile gynaecological offices to uninsured persons of Roma origin and to persons with difficult access to medical facilities, as 951 women were diagnosed with diseases. The implementation of the activity for each Regional Health Inspectorate is in accordance with an order of the Minister of Health to carry out not less than 500 examinations with each mobile gynaecological office. Financial resources of BGN 12,500 were allocated for each mobile unit, totalling BGN 50,000 for the four units. During the reporting period, the mobile gynecological offices were divided into four areas: Varna (the city of Varna, the village of Kamenar, the town of Ignatievo, the village of Staro Oryahovo, the village of Sindel, the village of Dubravino, the town of Provadia, the town of Devnya, the town of Suvorovo, the village of Chernevo, the town of Valchi Dol); Silistra (Tutrakan Municipality– the town of Tutrakan, the village of Tsar Samuel, the village of Nova Cherna, the village of Staro Selo, the village of Belitsa, the village of Preslavtsi, the village of Tarnovtsi,

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.

  • Bulgaria 2016 International Religious Freedom Report
    BULGARIA 2016 INTERNATIONAL RELIGIOUS FREEDOM REPORT Executive Summary The constitution provides for freedom of religion and conscience. The law requires religious groups to register to be eligible for certain benefits, including the right to receive state funding, operate schools and hospitals, and receive property tax exemptions. The constitution recognizes Eastern Orthodox Christianity as the country’s “traditional” religion, and the law exempts the Bulgarian Orthodox Church from the registration requirement. In September the National Assembly passed a law restricting the wearing of face-covering garments in public places. In July the Supreme Cassation Court vacated the guilty verdict of one Muslim leader charged with spreading Salafi Islam and hatred of other religious groups. In February the Pazardjik District Court started a trial against 14 Roma Muslims for propagating antidemocratic ideology and incitement to war and aiding foreign fighters. Minority religious groups, including Jehovah’s Witnesses, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (Mormons), and Muslims reported incidents of harassment and hostile rhetoric by members of some political parties and said the government failed to prosecute religiously motivated attacks against their members. Schools banned the wearing of religious symbols, including the hijab and cross, and some local governments continued to deny requests to construct new mosques or repair old ones. The Supreme Cassation Court suspended the Muslim community’s restitution claims, pending review of whether it was the rightful successor to confiscated properties. Minority groups reported discrimination and prejudice from local authorities in certain municipalities. Mormons and Jehovah’s Witnesses reported physical assaults and harassment against members of their communities.
