components has been tendered in 2010. Implementation of these
components is going to start in 2011 and completed by the end of 2013.
The project has three components:
1. Twinning - 1,000,000 € (Completed)
2. Technical assistance – 2,000,000 €
3. Supply - 3,765,000 €
Technical Assistance Component of the project began in January 2011
and will last for two years. The planned activities include the determination
of sensitive areas, preparation of the action plans, the development of
codes of good agricultural practices, and establishment of national
pollution monitoring network.
Under the twinning component of the project aiming for the implementation
of the Nitrate Directive, the secondary Legislation will be prepared and
institutional capacity will be improved.
