Conservation of the CARAORMAN Forest

The project is implemented in the protected natural area – Danube Delta Biosphere Reserve, declared SIT NATURA 2000, in ROSCI 0065 Danube Delta and ROSPA 0031 Danube Delta and Razim Complex, by the appearance of the second legislative acts Order No 1964 of 13 December 2007 establishing the protected natural area regime of sites of Community importance, as an integral part of the European ecological network Natura 2000 in Romania, as amended by Order No 2387 of 29 September 2011 andOrdinul nr. 46/2017 on the establishment of the protected natural area regime and the declaration of sites of Community importance as an integral part of the European ecological network Natura 2000 and Government Decision no. 1271 of 29 September 2011 on the establishment of the special protected area regime of Romania and the declaration of sites of Community importance as an integral part of the European ecological network Natura 2000 and Government Decision no. 1271 of 29 September 2011 on the establishment of the special protection regime of the protected natural area and the declaration of sites of Community importance as an integral part of the European ecological network Natura 2000 and Government Decision no. 1271 of 29 September 2011 on the establishment of the special protection regime of the protected natural area of Romania and the declaration of sites of Community importance as an integral part of the European ecological network Natura 2000 and the Government Decision no. 1263 of October of 24 October 2011 on the declaration of the special protection regime of Romania and the declaration of the sites of Community importance as an integral part of the European ecological network Natura 2000 and the Government Decision no. 1263 of October of 24 October 2011 on the establishment of the special protection regime of the protected natural area and the declaration of sites of Community importance as part of the European ecological network Natura 2000 and the Government Decision no. 1263 of October 24th of October 2007 Caraorman Forest has an area of 3.612 ha of which 2.825 represents strictly the protected area and 787 ha the buffer zone occupies the central part of the Caraorman beam. The area has gained the state of the area with integrated protection in order to protect the most developed and representative dunes denounced in the Danube Delta, but also of the Caraorman forest, consisting of meadow stand, poplar, ash, oaks (examples with diameters over 4.2 m) or laureate undergrowth. In addition, a number of species protected by the Berne Convention are found in the Caraorman Forest, such as 4 mammalian species, 3 reptile species, 102 bird species, 6 amphibian species, but also a number of very rare superior plants. Given the large number of protected species, the overall objective of the project is to implement measures from the management plan to improve the conservation status of biodiversity in the Caraorman Forest. The achievement of the general objective of the project will contribute both to the achievement of the specific objective of OS 41 and with the ITI strategy. Priority Axis 4 – Environmental protection through biodiversity conservation measures, air quality monitoring and decontamination of historically polluted sites, targets investment priority 6d “Protection and restoration of biodiversity and soils and promotion of ecosystem services, including through Natura 2000 and green infrastructure”, aiming, through Specific Objective 4.1 “Increasing the protection and conservation of biodiversity and restoring degraded ecosystems”, to promote biodiversity conservation measures in line with the Natura 2000 Priority Action Framework, the European Biodiversity Strategy 2020 and the National Strategy and Action Plan for the Conservation of Biodiversity 2014-2020.
