Bulgarian environmental and utility management reforms

Overview

Bulgaria is pursuing various legislative and strategic reforms aimed at improving environmental and utility management.

Political parties have proposed changes to the Waste Management Act to increase market competition and lower costs for citizens by reducing administrative barriers for recycling organizations. Additionally, proposals to amend the Clean Air Act seek to establish clearer rules for the national air quality monitoring system, requiring public justification for station locations and periodic reviews.

Concurrently, the Ministry of Regional Development and Public Works is developing a new management model for the water and sewerage sector. This strategy involves a comprehensive analysis of operators and the ‘passportization’ of companies to identify risks and prioritize capital investments. The ministry intends to create an integrated analytical environment to support long-term forecasting and spatial analysis for infrastructure development.
