BASIC  PROJECT  DATA

Project ID: PA1A042

 

NEED  AND  ADDED  VALUE  FOR  THE  DANUBE  REGION  STRATEGY

When the Poarta Alba–Midia Navodari Canal was opened for navigation in 1987, only the minimal works necessary for the navigation activities had been completed. The uncompleted works, the type of the rocks, the influence of the hydro-meteorological factors (wind, rain, snow) and the repeated cycles of freeze-thaw may cause landslides, with major impact on the general stability of embankments, resulting in a clogged fairway with material drawn from the slope and transported into the canal, as well as in the damage of the already completed works.

Currently, works are being conducted within the ceiling of the money allocated from the state budget. ISPA funding was used for a feasibility study for the works which are still to be completed.
