Abstract:
This report analyses the problems with air pollution in the transborder region Ruse – Giurgiu.
During the summer season fires occur on both sides of the Danube river, causing air pollution
and release of foul-smelling gases in the two regions (from Bulgarian and Romanian side). There
is a problem with air pollution during the autumn-winter season as well. The reason for this is
domestic wood and coal heating, which leads to emitting of soot and ash. The report discusses
the problems that arise in cases of accidents and fires. The following measures could be proposed
as part of the solution for this problem – joint teams to work on preventing of accidents with fires,
taking prompt and adequate measures in case of their occurrence, creating a better
communication between the teams for exchange of information in the event of fire.
