Hazard prevention and Crisis Management in the Danube River Delta | Umweltbundesamt

The general objective of the Danube Delta project was to improve the cooperation between the national authorities and industrial operators of the Republic of Moldova, Romania and Ukraine in the Danube Delta region through enhancing, and where possible harmonizing, the mechanisms and approaches for efficient and effective hazard and crisis management. The project promoted cooperation between the relevant authorities in the project countries (mostly authorities responsible for environmental protection, civil protection, transport, regional and local authorities, etc.) and between authorities and industry, in particular operators of oil terminals. The Danube Delta project significantly enhanced the transboundary cooperation between the participating countries at the expert level, as well as the cooperation and mutual trust and understanding between the national competent authorities and the industry.
