ActionDescriptionStatus
Education/Communication/SensibilisationIn January 2022 I saw on new satellite images that the world heritage site Danube Delta, protected area in Romania with the code ROWHS0001, is losing its integrity. A unique area, the last stretch of continental seashore in Romania not destroyed by real estate developments, fell victim to a large real estate development. The illegal building works were extending on a very Natura 2000 protected habitat, embryonic shifting dunes, 2110. They were on the beach, at less than 150 from the most advanced line of the sea waves, where building in illegal. They were on public land illegally passed to private ownership. The destruction was carried out with the complicity of the Administration of the Danube Delta Biosphere Reserve. An illegal permit was issued based on a management plan which was no longer valid. Several laws were breached and, as usual, fake impact studies were in the file. I sounded the alarm, I noticed the journalists about this in-conceivable destruction of the natural heritage. I found out that a lawsuit was already filed (file 37121/3/2021 from București Tribunal), initiated by locals and Eco-Civica (environmental foundation), but the case was not a high profile case yet, as it deserved. I also wrote an article about it (in Romanian): https://www.romaniacurata.ro/au-distrus-si-corbu-plaja-salbatica/ On-going
Veuillez indiquer quels ont été les résultats obtenus dans le cadre des activités entreprises pour la mise en œuvre de cette Résolution: 
After I ”sounded the alarm” it grew like a snowball, the case was presented all around the news, a petition to stop de devastation reached 17 thousands signatures and finally the State Inspectorate in Constructions ceased the works and the prefect of the county filed a lawsuit to annul the building permit.
