  1. Latest Developments in the Information Systems for Environmental Monitoring in ExEA - Bulgaria13th sessionof the UNECE Working Group on Environmental Monitoring and Assessment Geneva,1-2 November 2012 MINISTRY OF ENVIRONMENT AND WATER EXECUTIVE ENVIRONMENT AGENCY

  2. National Automatic Air Quality Monitoring System In 2011 the new IS for air quality monitoring became fully operational. The National level of the system operates in ExEA. It collects data from databases in 16 Regional Inspectorates of Environment and Water (RIEW). The data is generated by 44 automatic stations distributed in 6 Districts. • In 2012 the system was upgraded with functionality for automatic generation of: • Daily Bulletin for Air Quality and • Public Information for the Last Exceedances of Alarm Thresholds for NO2, SO2 and O3 • Currently a new module for automatic data dissemination to the municipalities is under development.

  3. System of Automatic Stations for Water Monitoring In 2012 the system was united through integration of the 4 former subsystems for the BD and was extended with third (national) level, located in ExEA. The data is disseminated also to MoEW and NIMH. • The system has 3 levels: • National – Executive Environment Agency • Regional – 4 Basin Directorates (BD) • Local – 23 automatic stations throughout the country

  4. Information System for Water Permits and Monitoring • The system uses a central database and allows access to the data and the software modules to all national users: • Ministry of Environment and Water; • Executive Environment Agency; • 4 Basin Directorates; • 16 Regional Inspectorates of Environment and Water; • The municipalities will be included in the system during its upgrade. • The system consists of: • Register for Permits; • Control Module; • Financial Module; • Module for Data Search and Output; • GIS Module.

  5. National Automated System for Online Monitoring of the Radiological Gamma-Background • The system consists of 26 automatic stations. Users of the system are: • Ministry of Interior • Nuclear Regulatory Agency • Nuclear Power Plant “Kozloduy” • Regional Laboratories of ExEA • The data is publicly available through Daily Bulletin for the Radiological Situation. The system is part of the European Radiological Data Exchange Platform (EURDEP).

  6. Information System for the National Biodiversity Monitoring System (NBMS) The new information system for the NBMS was developed in 2011 and in 2012 it was implemented in the responsible organizations. • The system consists of: • A mobile GIS application, which allows data input and mapping in the field; • New regional databases; • A National Database at ExEA; • A web application with opportunities for public access to the summarized and analyzed information.

  7. Integrated Information System for Waste • In 2011 a GIS-based model was developed with the following objectives: • Assessment of the potential impact of waste landfills on the environment and • Contributing to the environmental protection through improving waste management. • Currently the integrated system for waste is being extended with new modules for data exchange about widespread waste. The system allows data input as close as possible to the source - by the operators, generators of waste, as well as: • Centralized user administration by ExEA and RIEW; • Data manipulation by ExEA and RIEW; • Centralized database at ExEA.

  8. Data dissemination through up-to-date technologies Bulgaria joined the EEA project Shared European and National State of the Environment(SENSE) and successfully implemented new technology for data dissemination and exchange (Linked Data) in the web site for publishing the National Report on the State of the Environment. Currently ExEA is part of the second phase of the SENSE project during which web tools for dissemination of the Environmental Indicators is being developed.
