    [RO]Floods in Danube Delta Area! Official Numbers, Pics, Etc

    Hey Everybody!!!
    Thank you for the interest of viewing this post!

    Finally another sign from b0b. But, time flies when you're having "fun"....

    As probably all of you know, Romania is facing now big floods, and as an answer to some people's request, here are the official numbers, only from my region.

    The region is called Tulcea (the administrative area/county/Landkreiss/ Judet), it is including also Danube Delta.

    The numbers i have from the Administration, and there's nothing faked in them (like the media tends to do it, all the time).

    The Situation Concerning the Effects of the Floods
    The 3rd of May 2006, h13.00


    No. | Location | No. Affected Households | No. Affected Houses | No. Destroyed Houses | No. Evacuated Persons | Flooded Fields (Ha)

    ...........TOTAL ......................1091............................322 ................................171 .........................787 .......................9012

    And that's bad....

    The data is from the third of may. i wait for updates about the evolution of the numbers, and i will post them here...

    I will try to draw you a map, to understand better the extension of the flood....

    If you have any kind of question, don't hesitate to post it here!

    P.S: apologies for the quality of the list...i didn't know how to make it look like a table....

          Here are some first pictures from floods.

          You can see there even places where the water reached the roofs of the houses. They aretaken in Ostrov village (check the list), the most affected village in the Region.

          I have these pics from friends, which work at a local newspaper.

            more pics.

            here are some more pictures. This time they are taken in the vecinty of Tulcea, the last town on Danube, before the Delta.


            Apocalipse? you can see the water on the walls of the church....




            To get you understand: My town is well prepared against floods. But even so, here is a picture which sais a lot....




            This used to be a fountain for drinking water in a village close to Tulcea.




            Where is the Danube, and where was a village? Áctually, in this picture normal would have been to see a turn of the danube around that village.....Tudor Vladimirescu.


            These pictures have been taken by a friend of mine, Andrei Parciog. aandreiptl@yahoo.com. here's his pic

              Organisations.

              For the moment i face problems i finding out who is doing what in this region.
              I know the Red Cross is moving, I know the Rothary Club is in the region, also i heard of the Maltesers.

              Also firms have comed here, and prepare for reconstruction.

              I am planning now also a reconstruction project, with my organisation, Transriver .

              We also get a contact with EIRENE, a big volunteer asociation in Western Europe. I will keep you updated on our actions.

              Anyways, after talking with the administration, (which are really cool, by the way), i am planning to try something in one of these two locations: Vulturu or Ilgani (see the firs list). For the momentthey had only the basic support, but, for reconstruction, they have none yet.

              To understand batterthe situation of Vulturu, for example:
              It has 43 Affected Households, 43 affected houses, 51 people evacuated.
              VULTURU HAS A POPULATION OF 70 PEOPLE!!!!!

              For the reconstruction phase, there will be needed a lot of money, and a lot of building materials. I also plan on bringing down some volunteers, which are suppose to help people rebuild their houses.

              The authorities have opened an account in Lei only (the national money).

              I am discussing now with my organisation, what posibillity we have to open a special account for the floods, in Euros and U.S. Dollars.

              Of course, the are several accounts opened already, but i don't know how they function, and also i am not sure about the transparency of spending these money.

              This is it for the moment, we will see further what comes.

              Bis dann!!!!
              Und Ganz vielen Dank für Ihre Zeit!!!!!

              (All i can say is that i wish the day would have 32 hours...so i could get everything done...)

                    The situation on Danube is bad, also upstream. Many villages affected.
                    Only on the Romanian side, around 16 000 people were evacuated!!!! (data from the Media). Also Bulgaria, Serbia and Hungary recorded bad damages!

                    On the Romanian side, lot of fields have been flooded controlled, to protect some endangered villages.

                    So, if you plan a Danube Path (we don't have a specific name for this bike path). All i can say, is that in some areas might be dry until July...

                    Nothing to help you much for the moment, i am sorry, but it is impossible for me to give you an exact answer!

                        Solutions?

                        So. does anybody have any idea of what can be done for these people?

                        Or...how?

                        Now, that the waters backed off, they will need a lot of money, and a lot of construction materials....plus...sometimes, some hands (some of them are really old)...

                        I am curious if anybody has any idea for this....

                        Waiting for your replies...

                          Immediate help? No concrete idea.
                          Most effectiv seems to be some kind of village partnerships with direct contact between the citizens, then help with the right gifts in right time reach the right people.
                          An institution made for rebuilding is the "Bauorden" http://www.bauorden.de/
                          In the near future visiting as a tourist and spending money will be a good help.

                            Thank you, Fernwanderer!

                            I will try to get in contact with the institution you recommended. I never heard of them, but i saw they have some construction projects in Romania (in other regions than the flooded ones).

                            Please people, an idea which sounds stupid is better than no idea! So, anykind of suggestion is good!

                            We all try to do something good overhere!

                              Another idea...

                              Soon for sure i will come with the support program from my firm.

                              I think it will consist in hudge discounts for the tours, in case volunteers come for the reconstruction there. (i am still in the dealing with some fractions, and my firm won't charge nothing).

                              Perhaps this is a method of drawing people there?!
                              What do you think?

                              I hope i will be allowed to advertize also here those discounts...i will talk with the admins.... :wink:

                                Hi Bob,
                                if you could make a list with things, people in Romania require urgently and mostly, maybe some people in this forum can/will organize this.

                                Ask the Admins to pin the list at top of the "Laberforum" cause this is one forum with the most traffic.
