requirements of the National and European

legislation regarding the water policies the

number of mandatory for monitoring

priority and specific pollutants is increased

and new matrices for observation are

introduced.

This imposes the development and

introduction of additional methods of

analysis and the purchase of the necessary

precise analytical equipment.

The retrofit of the laboratories in the

Executive Environmental Agency with

basic and auxiliary equipment for sampling,

sample preparation and sample preservation

will insure higher reliability and

comparability of the data and it will answer

the requirements of the Water Framework

Directive WFD 2000/60/EU, it will also

Planning in the

Water and

The Project is based on the principles

and needs, defined in the Strategy for

the Development and Management of

the Water Supply and Sanitation Sector

in the Republic of Bulgaria for the

period 2014-2023 and the Action plan

for its implementation, the priorities for

investments in the water sector of the

EC and in the context of the on-going

water reform. The application of

regional approach is in compliance

with European and international good

practices for planning, investment and

management of the water supply and

sanitation infrastructure and services.

The implementation of investment

needs identified in the Strategy is a

great challenge and requires

unconditional need for their adequate

planning, following a regional and

integrated approach, analyses and

measurements, following the principle

of efficiency and sustainability of the

investments, in line with the applicable

strategic documents and legislature. On

the other hand, the requirement for cost

recovery of the investments in the

water infrastructure, calculation of

adequate depreciation in determining

the prices of water and sewerage

services are the main goal in the

process of implementation of future

infrastructure projects. In this regard

Municipality

Radnevo

Integrated

water project

for building

Urban sewage

treatment plant

effluent

Radnevo

The project “Integrated water project

for building Urban sewage treatment

plant effluent Radnevo” provides

construction of a new wastewater

treatment plan as the existing isn’t able

to perform the growing requirements to

parameters of treatment water and

mainly to remove the nutrients:

nitrogen and phosphorus.

The technology for biological

elimination of nitrogen compounds

includes emergency bioreactor and

anoxic bioreactor. For nitrification can

be used the classical highly loaded

biofilters but available ones in current

sewage treatment plant effluent.

Radnevo do not have the requisite

capacity. It is obsolete, and its

reconstruction and modernization is

very difficult and not appropriate.

During its reconstruction the

wastewater will have to pour for the

time of its implementation straight in

the receiver without purification. The

new sewage treatment plant effluent is

the powerful anoxic – aerobic

treatment system of wastewater and

maintenance of an optimal

concentration the amount of activated

sludge in the working reactors just like

disinfection of treated water with UV.

The same is designed as mechanical –

biological with technology of

continuous aeration with nitrification

and denitrification. This technology

ensures the necessary effectiveness for

reduction of organic pollution and

provides increased removal of nitrogen

increased phosphorus removal is

decided to simultaneous chemical

treatment in the activation tank with

the help of solution of iron salt – iron

trichloride. To assure the work flours

the treatment plant is completed in a

modular scheme which allows the

parallel operation or temporarily turns

off one of the modules of biological

treatment while reducing the load on

treatment equipments. The

measurement of incoming water

amounts is going through ultrasound

device with analog display which

account the current aggregated

area served by the treatment plant is of

considerable size including SF Alen

Mak, AR Chaika, Riviera HC, AR

Golden Sands”. The project in the

framework of procedure

BG161M10P002-1.005 provides for

the WWTP to secure better water

treatment – removal of nutrients –

nitrogen and phosphorus from the

agglomeration waste waters. Therefore

the technological plan of WWTP for

the water route includes: coarse grates,

entry WTP, mechanical treatment in a

combined facility, biological treatment

in SB-reactors, UV disinfection. Along

the sludge route, construction is

planned for an anaerobic stabilizer with

compaction, mechanical dewatering by

centrifuge and postvacuum treatment

of cake. 2. Partial construction,

reconstruction/rehabilitation of the

sewerage network in SF Alen Mak. It

is in proximity to AR Chaika” and this

determines its active utilization of

villas and resort purposes with holiday

homes. The current total constructed

sewerage system spans about 20 per

cent of the territory. The project

envisages the construction of four

major gravity sewerage branches with a

total length of 4795 meters and of 265

building pipes. Branches are

discharged into the existing upper

sewerage collector Chaika, passing

through the territory of and discharging

into WWTP – Golden Sands.

Improving the

monitoring of

drinking water

quality

The project aims to bring the scope and

frequency of monitoring the quality of

drinking water conducted by the authorities

of State Health Control in full compliance

with European and national legislation. The

project will be provided equipment for

laboratories in the system of the State

Health Control for conducting monitoring

of the quality of drinking water in response

to the recommendations for Bulgaria from a

Summary report of the European

Commission by 16 June 2014 for the

quality of drinking water in the European

Union dealing reports from Member States

for 2008-2010, granted under Directive

98/83 / EC of 3 November 1998 on the

quality of water intended for human

consumption (EC report (COM (2014) 363

final).

The project will improve the capacity of

laboratories in the system of the state health

control by extending and enhancing the

The expected outcome of the project is

improved capacity of the laboratories of the

bodies of State Health Control for

monitoring the quality of drinking water in

full compliance in full with the

requirements of EU and national

legislation.

The project will contribute to the

implementation of the Specific Objective 2:

"Improving the assessment of water status."

The project duration is 24 months and the
