And fecal waters of illegal houses are poured into Varna Lake – Bulgaria
Domestic faeces lead to an unknown number of illegal houses along one of the streets in the Roma ghetto “Maksuda”, a leak in a tree that flows into Varna Lake. This was established by the regional economic inspection during an inspection carried out in April this year, an inspection of “Dnevnik” was shown. However, she proves powerless to make administration of the mayor of Varna Ivan Portnih (GERB) yes fulfilled prescribed pollution prevention measures. Over time, the local water company continues to meet with all residents in illegal construction of fees for opening and reconstruction of waste guides in the amount of nearly BGN per cubic meter.
With regard to the information in the Ministry of Environment and Water, announced within the parliamentary control of the 46th National Assembly, after a check in the cadastre of the company “Vik Varna”, it was established that
there is no sewerage network in this area
The relevant inspection showed that all other dwellings in the section of the ghetto bordering the ravine where their dirty sewage flows are illegally built. In addition, since the administration’s inspection of Varna Mayor Ivan Portney (GERB), there has been no entrepreneur to refer to illegal construction, to build a sewer in the area, or to legalize houses.
In response to a parliamentary question on the issue, sent by MP Stella Nikolova (“Democratic Bulgaria”), from the Ministry of Ecology with clarifications to be ordered to the Law on Leaders, The control for construction, maintenance and operation of sewerage networks and facilities for treatment of household waste drivers must be carried out by Ivan Portnih in his capacity of municipal mayor. For this reason, a written order was sent to him on July 22, by August 16, in order to take measures to stop the leakage of domestic and fecal water from residential buildings in the ghetto “Maksuda” in Varna Lake. The district governor was also notified of a prescription.
Dnevnik sent several questions to the municipal administration in Varna in connection with the orderly established pollution of Varna Lake. From your answers you need to understand why household faecal water is left from illegal houses to flow into the uncontrolled.
Received answers had nothing to do with questions asked. They cited data from inspections to establish ownership of the land, within which illegal houses were built and clarifications regarding the powers of the municipal directorate “Ecology”. Unfortunately, when retrieving questions with a request for greater specificity, answers were received, illustrating once again the technology for generating inefficient
document flow, from which practically nothing follows
Summarized in one sentence, the information sent stated that
the municipality has informed the relevant regional mayor’s office about the leakage of faecal water, in turn, illegal construction has been established, and the transfer of pollution would be done by moving houses without a construction book. There are no deadlines for all this.
Absolutely compliant information was copied verbatim and in response to questions that Dnevnik sent to the Regional Inspectorate of Environment and in Varna. With a few reminders of the expected issues, the copying procedure is opened for administration in the inspection every two weeks. Later, in an informal conversation with an employee requesting anonymity, they explained that
is unable to do anything to stop the pollution
nor to impose sanctions on Varna Mayor Ivan Portney for failing to comply with the instructions to stop the leak by August 16 this year.
In the framework of an informal conversation from the eco-inspection in Varna, it was discussed that during an inspection in illegal constructions without sewerage in “Maksuda”
more than 150 people are registered at one address
This delayed procedures for establishing and processing illegal construction, and hence the established pollution of Varna Lake with domestic – fecal water.
Dnevnik also sent questions to Vik Varna. They need to clarify whether they are admitted to households, live in illegal constructions in the ghetto, open accounts to pay for services, including opening and refining their dropped drivers. Like many similar cases, by companies that respond in writing to “subscribe on the street.” Dr. Seleminski “(in Maksuda) have open accounts, observing the conditions for the provision of plumbing services”, and some fees are paid. In practice, this means that from an unknown number of households in Varna
Plumbing charges a fee for a service that does not work
The information about the next pollution of the Varna Lake with domestic – fecal waters, hidden by the administration of Ivan Portney, is against the background of the forthcoming repair of the sewerage pipeline, which for the year again in the lake withdrew over 3 million. cubic meters of highly toxic water from the dirty sewers of over 27 thousand households in the Asparuhovo district. According to the RIEW in Varna, the deadline for completion of the repairs is November 31 this year. In this period the almost 3 km long. pipeline should be buried 3 m below the lake bottom. However, the Municipality of Varna has not yet announced data from a verified procedure for selection of technology, according to which this could happen.
How over 3 million cubic meters of fecal water were drawn into Lake Varna – here, here, here and here.
