The current project is designed to improve the emergency preparedness and risk prevention capacity in the cross-border area of Olt and Pleven districts, namely Dolna Mitropolia Municipality (DMM). The a.m. cross-border regions are exposed to a number of weather-related, geophysical and other risks. Although state, municipal and volunteer emergency response (ER) authorities and structures are in place, it is recognized that the existing capacity is not sufficient. Effective risk management requires adequate technical equipment and relevant human forces. The problem the current project addresses is the necessity for improved mechanisms for joint risk prevention and management in region Olt-DMM/Pleven region, which will assure protection of the life and health of population, the environment and important material and cultural values in emergency situations. The current situation during the last years shows that the cross-border region is confronted with many problems caused by the climate changes resulting in dangerous weather events. From 2014 to 2017, the Emergency Situations Inspectorate Olt has intervened in 2015 cases of fires and 272 floods, assisted and rescued a number of 287 persons from dangerous situations. In many interventions ISU has been supported by the Police Department, Gendarmerie Department and Ambulance Service. The Gendarmerie Department participated in 124 public events, together with ISU representatives, for maintaining public order and safety. They also intervened in any cases of calamities for maintaining order and helping the civilians, evacuation from dangerous areas, etc. The situation in DMM is similar to the one described. A number of cases of fires, floods, as well as closed or restricted-access roads are registered with the responsible authorities (see C1.). Being located in a high-risk area, DMM has registered more than 15 closures of roads every winter, over 30 fires and regular flooding of Danube, Iskar and Vit rivers, especially in spring. The municipality is assosted by Pleven district authorities and volunteer organizations, but additional support is of key importance. Based on the a.m., it is concluded that there are several main problems in the field of risk prevention in the Olt-Pleven/DMM region: - insufficient technical empowerment during the interventions in case of major urgencies – field fires, floods, extreme winter conditions. - inadequate response capacity for managing the a.m. risks generated by the natural calamities. These problems and emergencies could be solved through the implementation of joint CB measures for risk prevention and management. The present project envisages the investment in necessary equipment for management of specific emergencies by the authorized institutions in both counties and namely the districts of Olt and DMM. The investment targeted at improved technical capacity accompanied by joint trainings of relevant organizations of the cross-border region, will contribute to the authorities’ efforts for heightened civil and environmental protection. The project budget is 1.000.000 euro, 500.000 euro for each of the partners. The envisaged hard project includes the supply of the following equipment: For LP - 1 special truck with water and foam, 4 rough terrain vehicles, 3 ATV’s, 1 boat, rope, rescue vests. For P2:1 Combined backhoe loader,1 Aerial platform, 2 Vehicle for rough terrain, 2 Sledge-car, 1 Tractor 105 hp With inventory, 1 Machine for crushing of wood,3 Floating pumps, 5 Chain saws, 5 Brush cutters,1 Mini wheel loader,1 Snow-collecting brush, Rotor snowflake. The project’s objective is to improve the efficiency of risk prevention , as well as to ensure high-level preparedness and boost closer cooperation of the relevant authorities in case of disasters in the envisaged cross-border region. The specific project objectives are follows: - improvement of the response capacity in case of emergencies, at the Olt-DMM Region through the reduction of the intervention time; - improvement of technical capacity and quality of the interventions system in case of emergencies in the Olt-DMM Region through the acquisition of specific equipment; - facilitation of integrated interventions in case of disasters or accidents through the acquisition of specialized equipment; - improvement of the population access from the Olt-DMM Region to public safety services and interventions in case of emergencies; - Increasing the degree of the population safety and protection by provision of essential services, qualified and responsible technical and human capacity in case of urgencies and major disasters. The main project activities are: 1. Project preparation – communication and meetings between partners, 2. Project management; 3. Acquisition of equipment (public procurement procedures, contracting, delivery, etc.), 4. Common analysis and plan for joint coordinated actions, 5. Information and publicity (incl. press-conferences, promotional materials, etc.). T (English)
