Under the Cohesion Fund, the allocations for the new Member States from central and eastern Europe will more than treble: from EUR 0.75 billion per year under the ISPA to EUR 2.8 billion per year for the 2004–06 period.
V okviru Kohezijskega sklada se bo pomoč za nove države članice srednje in vzhodne Evrope povečala za več kot trikrat: od 0,75 milijarde evrov na leto v okviru ISPA, do 2,8 milijarde evrov letno za obdobje 2004-2006.
Commitments to ongoing projects approved under the ISPA before January 2004 will account for a substantial part of the increased budget.
Znaten delež povečanega proračuna bo namenjen obvezam za tekoče projekte, ki jih je Komisija odobrila pred januarjem 2004.
However, new investments should be identified and prepared in order to dispose of a project pipeline which can warrant the absorption of the Fund’s budget.
Kljub temu je potrebno pripraviti nove investicije, ki bodo služile kot rezervni projekti za zagotovitev črpanja sredstev iz Sklada.
Similar efforts are required from Bulgaria and Romania for the ISPA.
ISPA zahteva podobno tudi od Bolgarije in Romunije.

Environment and transport: challenges ahead
Okolje in promet: prihodnji izzivi
Undoubtedly, significant progress in environmental protection has been made by all applicant countries — the new Member States as well as Bulgaria and Romania.
Na področju varovanja okolja je bil v vseh državah kandidatkah nedvomno dosežen precejšen napredek, tako v novih državah članicah kot tudi v Bolgariji in Romuniji.
The total cost of completing the trans-European transport network, including the projects of common interest not identified as priority projects, is estimated to be EUR 600 billion.
ni stroški za dokončanje čezevropskega prometnega omrežja, sem so vključeni tudi neprednostni projekti skupnega interesa, so ocenjeni na 600 milijard evrov.
Required investment in transport infrastructure in the new Member States would amount to EUR 90 billion by 2015.
Potrebne investicije v prometno infrastrukturo do leta 2015 so v novih državah članicah vredne 90 milijard evrov.
Again, the cohesion policy instruments will play a key role in the grant-fi nanc-ing of this infrastructure.
Pri financiranju teh investicij bodo ključno vlogo igrali instrumenti kohezijske politike.
During the last decade, the state of the environment has improved, in particular with regard to air and water pollution reduction.
V desetih letih so se okoljske razmere izboljšale, predvsem na področju kakovosti zraka in onesnaževanja voda. Vsebnost glavnih škodljivih snovi v zraku se je zmanjšala za 60-80 %, strupenih kovin za 50 %, onesnaženost voda z organskimi snovmi pa za 80 %.
The percentage of homes and other installations whose effl u-ent is sent to waste water treatment plants has doubled since the early 1990s.
Delež prebivalcev in industrije, katerih odplake čistijo čistilne naprave, se je od začetka 90. let podvojil.
However, it is estimated that, to achieve full implementation of the EU environmental acquis, the new Member States will have to spend on average between 2 and 3 % of GDP on the environment in the coming years.
Vendarle pa prevladujejo ocene, da bodo morale za popolno skladnost s pravnim redom EU na področju varovanja okolja nove države članice za to področje v prihodnjih letih nameniti povprečno od 2 do 3 % njihovega BDP.
Current expenditure being generally well below this target, the Cohesion Fund and the ERDF can play a significant role in overcoming this deficiency.
Ker so sedanja finančna sredstva pogosto precej pod omenjenim pragom, lahko manko zapolnita Kohezijski sklad in Evropski sklad za regionalni razvoj.
It is indeed estimated that until the end of the current budgetary period in 2006, the increased EU assistance in the environment field, some EUR 8 billion, will represent around 10 % of the total investment requirements.
Do konca sedanjega proračunskega obdobja leta 2006 naj bi evropska pomoč na področju varovanja okolja – okoli 8 milijard evrov – predstavljala približno 10 % vseh potrebnih investicij.
As far as transport is concerned, in April 2004 the Council and the Parliament approved new Community guidelines for the development of the trans-European transport network (TEN-T guidelines) in an enlarged Europe.
Svet EU in Evropski parlament sta aprila 2004 potrdila nove smernice za čezevropsko prometno omrežje (smernice RTE-T) v razširjeni EU.
These guidelines include a list of 30 priority projects of European interest which are to be realised by 2020.
V teh smernicah je objavljen seznam 30 prioritetnih projektov evropskega pomena (9 jih je namenjenih za prometne povezave med novimi državami članicami), ki naj bi jih dokončali do leta 2020.
Nine priority projects concern axes including the new Member States.
Cilj projektov je zagotovitev trajnostnih prometnih sredstev in konceptov mobilnosti s poudarkom na vlaganja v tire in vodne poti.

“Zaradi podaljšanja železniške povezave med Madžarsko in Slovenijo, zgrajene leta 2001, sedaj preurejamo 80 kilometrov tirov med krajema Zalalövő in Boba.
The first phase of this ISPA project was completed in mid-2003 with the construction of the Zalaegerszeg bypass.
Prva faza tega projekta ISPA se je z dokončanjem obvoza mimo Zalaegerszega zaključila sredi leta 2003.
The new 2.1 km section includes a 140 metre-long steel bridge over the River Zala.
V novi odsek z dolžino 2,1 km je vključen tudi jekleni železniški most preko reke Zala, dolg 140 m.
Journey times for trains avoiding Zalaegerszeg station will be reduced by 10 minutes.
Za vlake, ki ne ustavljajo na postaji v Zalaegerszegu, se je trajanje potovanja skrajšalo za 10 minut.
Safety and punctuality have also been improved, along with the quality of life for the local inhabitants, as the bypass has reduced the negative environmental impact.’
Izboljšala sta se tako varnost in točnost vlakovnega prometa kot tudi kakovost življenja lokalnega prebivalstva, saj je obvoz zmanjšal vplive na okolje.”
‘The Gora region, on the Trnovsko–Banjški Plateau, provides water for the city of Ajdovščina and its hinterland(20 000 inhabitants).
“Področje Gora na Trnovsko–Banjški planoti je vodni rezervoar mesta Ajdovščina in njegove okolice (20 000 prebivalcev).
Until quite recently, the slightest drought resulted in a shortage of drinking water.
Še do pred kratkim je primanjkovalo pitne vode že ob najmanjši suši.
The ISPA has given us the means to ensure a sustainable supply of drinking water and to protect water resources in accordance with the water directive.
S pomočjo programa ISPA smo zagotovili trajno oskrbo s pitno vodo in zaščito vodnih virov v skladu z direktivo o vodah.
The project involved creating adequate water conduits, water treatment facilities and sewers in all the areas close to water collection points.
V projekt je bila zajeta izgradnja vodovodnega omrežja, čistilne naprave in kanalizacije v vseh zaselkih v bližini zajetij.
Some 40 km of water conduits and 900 m³ of new reservoirs were completed in April 2004.
Aprila 2004 je bilo zgrajenih 40 km vodovodnih cevi in 900 m³ novih rezervoarjev.
A 10 km sewage network will enable 3 500 inhabitants in the region to be connected directly to the treatment facilities at Ajdovščina which are already operating, whilst a second station will be ready in July 2005.’
Kanalizacijsko omrežje v dolžini 10 km bo 3 500 prebivalcem regije omogočilo neposredno priključitev na že delujočo čistilno napravo v Ajdovščini, druga čistilna naprava pa bo zgrajena julija 2005.”

‘In central southern Romania, Ramnicu Valcea (120 000 inhabitants) does not yet have a comprehensive waste collection system.
“V osrednjem južnem delu Romunije leži mesto Ramnicu Valcea (120 000 preb.), ki še vedno nima skupnega sistema za ravnanje z odpadki.
Rubbish is placed in an open dump, about 12 km from the city centre, near the River Olt.
Odlagajo jih na preprostem odlagališču na odprtem v bližini reke Olt in kakšen ducat kilometrov od mestnega središča.
At least 20 % of the inhabitants do not benefit from a household waste collection service.
Vsaj 20 % prebivalcev nima na voljo nobenih storitev zbiranja gospodinjskih odpadkov.
An integrated waste management programme was consequently launched by the municipality in 1997 with the help of the GTZ, the German Agency for Technical Assistance.
Iz tega razloga so mestne oblasti ob pomoči nemške vladne agencije (GTZ) leta 1997 predstavile program za integirano ravnanje z odpadki.
As part of this project, in November 2001, the European Union awarded an ISPA grant aimed at further improving the waste collection system, shutting down the current landfill, the construction of an ecological landfill and modern composting facilities.’
V okviru tega projekta je novembra 2001 Evropska unija dodelila finančna sredstva programa ISPA za izboljšanje zbiranja odpadkov, zaprtje obstoječega odlagališča ter izgradnjo ekološkega odlagališča s sodobno kompostarno.”

“Prvi cestni projekt ISPA v Bolgariji je vključen v Tretji program obnove prometnih poti, katerega namen je obnova več kot 700 km cest in avtocest.
The overall objectives are to improve safety and environment records and to reduce travelling time by rehabilitating and upgrading 260 km of the primary road network to internationally accepted standards.
Gre za izboljšanje prometne varnosti in zmanjšanje vplivov na okolje. Z obnovo glavnega cestnega omrežja dolžine 260 km v skladu z mednarodnimi standardi se bo skrajšal tudi čas potovanja.
The plans include the improvement of the road surface and skid resistance, modernisation of signs and horizontal marking, safer access roads and the provision of new guard railings.
Predvidena dela vključujejo prenovo asfaltne prevleke, preprečitev zadrževanja vode, posodobitev signalizacije in cestnih oznak, zagotovitev varnega dostopa in namestitev zaščitne ograje.
The improvement of the primary road network will contribute to making the Bulgarian transport infrastructures compatible with those in EU countries.’
Izboljšanje glavnega cestnega omrežja bo postavilo bolgarsko prometno infrastrukturo na raven držav Evropske Unije.”

Spain: Galicia, between catching up and breaking new ecological ground
Španija: Galicija med zaostankom in napredkom na področju ekologije
Facing up to waste
Konec težav z odpadki
In order to comply with European environmental standards and sustainably develop its economy following several ecological disasters, Galicia has implemented an extensive waste water and solid waste management programme.
Po številnih ekoloških katastrofah in da bi zadostila evropskim okoljskim predpisom glede trajnostnega razvoja, je Galicija začela izvajati obesežen program za ravnanje z odpadnimi vodami in trdnimi odpadki.
The Cohesion Fund is financing a large proportion of the necessary investments.
Kohezijski sklad financira velik delež potrebnih investicij.
Unloading urban waste at the Nostián plant (Corunna) on the primary marine sector: ‘Mussels are still our number one marine product.
Sprejem gospodinjskih odpadkov na odlagališču Nostián (La Coruña) naš proizvod številka ena.
The 250 000 tonnes harvested each year are worth EUR 120 million and account for 10 000 direct jobs.
Vsako leto jih vzgojimo 250 000 ton, kar prinaša 120 milijonov evrov in zagotavlja 10 000 neposrednih delovnih mest.
So there is no room for slacking,’ states Juan Maneiro.
Torej ne pride v poštev, da bi omilili zaščito,” pravi Juan Maneiro.
Particular attention is focused on the ‘rias’. These are the typical estuaries in the Spanish Finisterre where most of the mussel, oyster and other shellfish production is centred and for which Galicia is renowned.
Še posebej so zaščiteni “rias”, značilni, ustjem podobni zalivi na zahodni obali Španije, kjer so glavna gojišča klapavic, ostrig in drugih vrst školjk, po katerih je Galicija znana.
Juan Maneiro is a busy man: it is nearly seven o’clock in the evening and he has just been informed that he has to sign the decrees imposing the temporary closure of two marine shellfish areas in north-east Galicia.
Juan Maneiro je zelo zaposlen človek. Ura je že skoraj 19 in pravkar so mu sporočili, da mora podpisati odločbe o začasnem zaprtju dveh gojišč školjk na severovzhodu Galicije.
‘As a preventive measure,’ explains the Director of the Centre for Quality Control of the Marine Environment (CCCMM), pointing on the map to the affected boundaries.
“Iz preventivnih razlogov,” pojasnjuje direktor Centra za nadzor nad kakovostjo morskega okolja (CCCMM) in s prstom na zemljevidu kaže na prizadeta območja.
‘Our samples have revealed not oil pollution but a biotoxic risk.
“Ne gre za onesnaženje z ogljikovodiki, ampak za biotoksično nevarnost, na katero so nas opozorili odvzeti vzorci.
If tomorrow’s more precise tests show a negative result, we will at least be able to reopen this area.
Če bodo jutrišnji podrobnejši testi negativni, bomo odprli vsaj to školjčišče, medtem pa bomo obvestili prizadete gojitelje.”
In the meantime, we are going to warn the producers concerned.’
Rečeno, storjeno.
No sooner said than done: the centre makes a series of telephone calls, sending a text message warning to the 100 or so mussel cultivators concerned.
Center pošlje opozorilno SMS sporočilo stotim gojiteljem klapavic.
In Galicia, the sea is a serious business. It has shaped the identity of the country and its inhabitants, and whole sections of the regional economy still depend
V Galiciji morja ne zanemarjajo, saj bistveno oblikuje podobo pokrajine in njenih prebivalcev ter daje kruh številnim ljudem, ki so še vedno odvisni od tovrstne primarne gospodarske dejavnosti: “Klapavice ostajajo
In the south of the region, the Vigo ria is one of the most beautiful and most productive, with thousands of mussel rafts covering almost the entire water surface in some places.
Na jugu regije leži ria Vigo, ki je eden najlepših in najbolj “rodovitnih” in kjer je skoraj celotna površina morja prekrita s splavi za gojenje školjk.
But its shores, the most industrialised in this area of Spain, are also home to 1 million inhabitants (a third of Galicia’s population), who exert significant environmental pressure on this fragile ecosystem.
Tamkajšnja obala je med najbolj industrializiranimi v tem delu Španije. Tam živi milijon prebivalcev (tretjina prebivalstva Galicije), kar ustvarja znaten pritisk na krhek ekosistem.

Kohezijski sklad, krepitev evropskega sodelovanja nost investicije ja znašala 90 milijonov evrov, od tega je 80 % prispeval Kohezijski sklad.
In the course of a decade, 10 treatment stations were built around the estuary, not to mention the numerous small pre-treatment units that filter the paper, plastics and other non-fluid waste upstream which the stations are unable to process.
V desetih letih so v zalivu in okolici zgradili 10 čistilnih naprav in veliko število manjših naprav za predhodno čiščenje papirja, plastičnih materialov in drugih trdnih odpadkov, ki jih čistilne naprave ne morejo odstraniti.
‘Previously, all the waste water was sent into the sea without being treated,’ explains Ignacio Niño Taboada, civil engineer with the Government of Galicia.
“Prej so se vse odpadne vode izlivale neposredno v morje,” pojasnjuje Ignacio Niño Taboada, gradbeni inženir pri galicijski vladi.
‘Nowadays, the water which is emitted is 95 % purified.’
“Danes pa pred izpustom očistimo 95 % voda.”
Ignacio points to the goldfish swimming in the perfectly clear water of the final water purification basin at the Moaña water treatment station, the most recent installation on this ria, which has been operating since 2002.
Ignacio opazuje zlate ribice v kristalno čisti vodi v zadnjem bazenu čistilne naprave v Moañi, ki je bila, kot zadnja v ria, zgrajena leta 2002.

The total investment was EUR 270 million, 72.21 million of which were financed by the Cohesion Fund.
Kompleks Cerceda je tudi največji lokalni delodajalec.
Apart from the effective waste management, the Cerceda plant is the leading local employer: as José Manuel Palias Reguro, Human Resources Director, explains: ‘375 direct jobs were created for a whole range of qualifications, from the least to the most highly skilled.’
Z besedami Joséja Manuela Paliasa Regura, direktorja človeških virov: "Neposredno smo ustvarili 375 delovnih mest, tako za slabše kvalificirane kot tudi za visoko-kvalifi cirane kadre."
It was at the very moment when Galician water quality was being improved, through these large-scale water pu-rifi fication operations, that the Prestige was shipwrecked off Corunna, on 13 November 2002, spilling most of the 77 000 tonnes of oil it was transporting and causing one of the worst oil slicks on record.
Ravno v času, ko se je voda zaradi vseh navedenih ukrepov začela čisiti, se je na odprtem morju v bližini La Coruñe 13. novembra 2002 zgodil brodolom tankerja Prestige. Izteklo je skoraj 77 000 ton kurilnega olja, kar je povzročilo eno najhujših ekoloških katastrof v zgodovini.
A combination of good fortune, a massive mobilisation of volunteers and the clean-up operation enabled the damage to be contained.
K sreči jim je z edinstveno mobilizacijo in čistilno akcijo uspelo omejiti škodo.
‘The northern coasts and the province of Corunna were most seriously affected,’ explains Juan Maneiro.
“Prizadete so bile predvsem severne obale in obale v provinci La Coruña,” pravi Juan Maneiro.
‘Here on the west coast, the large quantities of fresh water from the rivers prevented most of the hydrocarbons from entering the rias.’
“Tukaj, na zahodni obali, so velike količine sveže vode iz rek preprečile vdor ogljikovodikov v rias”.
What conclusions does the director of the CCCMM draw in July 2004?
Kakšno oceno lahko direktor ustanove CCCMM poda julija 2004?
‘Eighteen months after the disaster, the short- and me-dium-term effects have practically disappeared everywhere.
“Poldrugo leto po katastrofi so kratkoročne in srednjeročne posledice praktično povsod odpravljene.
However, we still do not know what the consequences will be in five, 10 or 20 years...’
Še vedno pa ne vemo, kakšne bodo posledice po petih, desetih ali dvajsetih letih ...”
In terms of waste management, it was primarily the serious ecological disaster which forced the Galician authorities to move up a gear: on 10 September 1996, the largest city in Galicia, Corunna (450 000 inhabitants), witnessed 200 000 tonnes of waste fall into the sea following the landslide at the main municipal tip situated right on the coast.
Galicijske oblasti je prisilil k hitremu ukrepanju na področju ravnanja z odpadki precej nenavaden dogodek. 10. septembra 1996 se je v največjem galicijskem mestu La Coruñi (450 000 prebivalcev) 200 000 ton odpadkov zaradi zemeljskega zdrsa v glavnem mestnem odlagališču znašlo vzdlož obale.
‘In total, 1.3 million tonnes of waste slid into the sea!
“Vsega skupaj je zdrsnilo 1,3 milijonov ton odpadkov!
It was a real earthquake!’ recounts Mark Guscin, press attaché for the Town Hall.
Pravi potres!” pripoveduje mestni predstavnik za stike z javnostjo Mark Guscin.
‘The disaster was the catalyst for raising environmental awareness in the city and the region.
“Katastrofa je okrepila ekološko ozaveščenost na mestni in regionalni ravni.
From that instant, the municipal council placed waste management at the top of its list of short-, medium- and long-term priorities, subscribing to a new philosophy: sustainability.’
Takrat je mestni svet ravnanje z odpadki uvrstil na seznam kratko-, srednje- in dolgoročnih prioritet. Izmislili so si tudi novo geslo: trajnost.”
Be that as it may, the efforts made by Galicia to clean up its waters are just as considerable when it comes to domestic waste management.
Tako kot na področju čiščenja voda, je Galicija uspešna tudi na področju ravnanja z gospodinjskimi odpadki. Leta 1997 je regija na svojem ozemlju zabeležila 300 nenadzorovanih in 3 000 nelegalnih odlagališč odpadkov.
To remedy this situation before 2005, the regional authorities decided to launch a ‘Plan de Gestión de Residuos Sólidos Urbanos de Galicia’ (Solid urban waste management plan for Galicia), and entrust its implementation to Sogama (‘Sociedade Galega do Medio Ambiente’/Galician environment company), providing it with a large-scale processing unit.
Da bi se obstoječe razmere popravile do leta 2005, so regionalne oblasti pripravile načrt "Plan de Gestión de Residuos Sólidos Urbanos de Galicia" (Načrt za ravnanje z mestnimi trdnimi odpadki v Galiciji), katerega izvajanje so zaupale družbi SOGAMA ("Sociedade Galega do Medio Ambiente" / Galicijska družba za okolje), ter zgradile visokozmogljivo tovarno za predelavo odpadkov.
The first task was of course to clean up the affected area, a gigantic task for which numerous local enterprises came forward to offer their services.
Začeli so s čiščenjem območja. To ogromno delo so opravila številna podjetja, ki so se odzvala povsem spontano.
In May 1997, eight months after the disaster, an urban waste plan was approved by the eight municipalities which use the tip.
Osem mesecev po dogodku, maja 1997, je osem občin, ki so uporabljale odlagališče, sprejelo načrt za ravnanje z mestnimi odpadki.
It envisaged the following lines of action: closure and securing of the tip, rehabilitation of the site and its conversion into a recreational park, the selective collection of waste and its recycling.
Ukrepi so predvidevali: varno zaprtje odlagališča, regeneracijo in preoblikovanje prostora v rekreacijsko območje ter ločeno zbiranje in vrednotenje odpadkov.
