The transboundary area is characterized by high concentration of chemical industrial enterprises and dense transportation network which poses a potential threat of oil/chemical accidents in the region. Late or inadequate response to the consequences of an oil or chemical spill may affect large territories of neighbouring countries. The adequate response to emergency situations, which can solve this problem, can be provided only by uniting resources of the neighbouring countries in a cross-border approach. The project aims to increaseat increasing the level of ecological safety in the region by ensuring quick and professional response to oil/chemical spills for sustainable development of the region.
