A Preliminary EIA report for the construction of a New Bridge over the Danube (Vidin, Bulgaria – Calafat, Romania) comprises:
(1) Obligatory components according to legislation:
• Project background – project description and site conditions;
• Legal and administrative framework;
• Analysis of the existing environmental conditions;
• EIA Report on air quality, surface and ground water, waste, land and soils, riverbank and island erosion, geology and foundation, flora, fauna, landscape, noise, cultural and historical heritage and recreation zones;
• Analysis of main project alternatives;
• Impacts of accidential situations - risk to human health and environment; and measures to avoid accidents;
• Mitigation of environment impacts;
• Supervision and monitoring;
(2) Additional components with regard to the peculiar situation – investigation of impacts on present and planned recreation zones in the proximity of the bridge. Each of the components was considered for both Bulgarian and Romanian riverbanks. The Preliminary EIA stressed on the impacts of the main project stages – construction of adjoining infrastructure, construction of the bridge and the operation phase. Two traffic scenarios were considered: (1) low growth of traffic (LGT) and (2) high growth of traffic (HGT). The second one considers the possibility of no traffic passing through Serbia (as a result of UN embargo).
