Project Objectives
Improving water monitoring and the warnings
system, environmental data dissemination on the
Romanian-Bulgarian border counties;
Implementing at high standards the EC water
policy, by increasing institutional capacity
Improving the water infrastructure by different
acquisitions, including a ship for Danube
monitoring and pollution intervention
Processing and conditioning the liquid organic
wastes radioactively contaminated from the
nuclear plants Cernavod and Kozloduy.
Monitoring, data processing and
forecasting water quantity and quality,
under the European Commission
standards for a better implementation of
the European legislation in the water field
(the Water Framework Directive
2000/60/EC, the Flood Directive
2007/60/CE) Increasing capacity for data
and warning dissemination at the border
areas.

Project Results
Joint methodologies, joint standards for water monitoring
and Joint aligned databases with interfaces for data
exchange and data sharing with the large public, as
demanded by INSPIRE Directive and will be shared with
the ICPDR and the upstream countries. Warnings will be
elaborated in case of floods, low flows and accidental
pollution for the relevant actors in the border area,
increasing the public awareness through information
campaigns on the environmental protection and
management in the cross-border area. Finally, a revision
of the bilateral agreement for data exchange will be
provided.
Target Groups
Large communities in flood risk areas,
water management authorities, ICPDR,
border counties, NPP Cernavod -
Romania and Kozloduy - Bulgaria

WE INVITE YOU TO CELEBRATE
THE DANUBE DAY, 29 June, 2014!




THE DANUBE DAY, 29 June, 2014!

Danube Day is a celebration of a cleaner, safer river
following 20 years of international cooperation.
Meetings and sprtiv competitions on the banks of the rivers;
public meetings and fun, educational events payed tribute to
the Danube rivers, its peoples and the progress that has
been made. Danube Day strengthens our "Danube
solidarity" highlighting that, in spite of our different cultures
and histories, we have a shared desire and responsibility to
protect our precious resource.
Danube WATER encouraged children to visit their local
rivers and create artworks reflecting what the Danube means
to them in Giurgiu, and Braila and meeting through the
pictures works in Calarasi. By entering the competition, the
children not only had a great time making their artwork but
are also motivated to consider the future of the rivers and
the people and wildife that rely on them. The result was a
visual representation of young people's vision for the
Danube Basin.
