Abstract:

The area of the Trotus basin is of 4,456 km2, of which at least 20% is in need of antropic interventions, as the ecologically areas affected by erosions and transports are continually increasing. Therefore the issue is the ecological reconstruction of about 900 km2 = 90,000 ha. The length of the Trotus river is of 162 km, of which about 130 km in Bacau County. This length (river section) requires special works of water-bed and streamline regulation and ecological renewal of the affected flood-planes and terraces (15,000ha). Areas of forest clearings that have to be replanted represent about 70,000 ha, in order to complete forested areas, and without having the guarantee that this would solve the dramatic issue of floods. The catastrophic floods of 2005 were the synergetic outcome of thermo-climate deregulations due to the pollution of the stratosphere by toxic gases and the massive antropic degradation related mainly to the clearings in the Trotus basin.
