The Republic of Bulgaria is part of: The Danube FAB LSSIP Year 2019 Bulgaria- Level 1 1 Released Issue Implementation Projects: Number of national projects: 5 - Implementation of traffic complexity assessment tool in Sofia ACC; New ATM system (incl. en-route AMAN and back-up); New PSRs and SSR East part of Sofia FIR; WAM and ADS-B and Building of Contingency and Data Center and Equipment Number of FAB projects: 5 FAB enlargement (DFAP2020/A08); Free Route Airspace (DFAP2020/F04); Inter020/A10); Number of multinational projects: 2 – Gate One and InterFAB Coordination Platform Summary of 2019 developments: - the project for the update/upgrade of existing VOR/DME infrastructure was successfully completed; - the operational ATM system – SATCAS was upgraded to allow for DL services; - the project for the implementation of a traffic complexity assessment tool in Sofia ACC is on track, due to become operational in 2020; - the installation of the WAM and ADS-B infrastructure continues according to the plans, to be finalised in 2020. Progress per SESAR Phase The figure below shows the progress made so far in the implementation of the SESAR baseline (Pre-SESAR and SESAR1 non-PCP) and the PCP elements. It shows the average implementation progress for all objectives grouped by SESAR Phases, excluding those for which the State is outside the applicability area as defined on a yearly basis in the European ATM Master Plan (Level 3) 2019, i.e. disregarding the declared “NOT APPLICABLE” LSSIP progress status. The SESAR 1 (non-PCP) progress in the graphics below for this State is based on the following objectives: AOP15, AOP16, AOP17, AOP18, ATC02.9, NAV12 and COM11.2.
