A unified water management authority is needed to solve the problems with water shortage. This was what caretaker Minister of Environment and Water, Petar Dimitrov, told bTV.
Currently, water management is fragmented, responsibilities are blurred between many ministries and institutions and there is no specific authority to take care of this, Dimitrov said. It is necessary for water companies to have long-term development plans, he added. We expect the problem to be solved with European funds as a panacea, but this is impossible. These funds are intended to supplement national funding, which is practically absent, the minister said. He also pointed out the lack of new technologies in water management.
