Peninsula. In the Black Lake area, an area which has been announced protected a

hydropower is being built. On the basis of environmental protection laws and the

law on environmental impact assessment, the hydropower which is being built,

must have the project on environmental impact assessment. Questions asked by

residents, which have remained unanswered, eg. where will the hydropower plant

get the water from, and will the lake dry or emerge the water from the lake in times

of rainfall. The builders say that throughout the summer the hydro station will not

pick lake water, while the contract penalties for non-compliance in these situations

are unknown. The concept of protected area is “Protection of nature has priority over

development”. The issue of a building permission for a hydroelectric power station

within a protected area is a concern for the impact that it will have on the water level

of the Black Lake, and deforestation, whose assets are not found elsewhere in Albania

and is almost an untouched area. This is a great harm being caused to the wealth

of Albanian nature. Residents in 2014 onwards are opposing the implementation

of the project but still there is no solution and the construction continues. For all

the above, we conclude that the continued protection of these areas is a task of the

regional authorities County (Regional Environmental Agency), local authorities etc.

Therefore regional authorities (REA), which are responsible for the protection of these

areas should exercise their legal eff ect to these destructive activities on landscapes.

Local authorities should also undertake a campaign of reforestation areas, planting

characteristic vegetation to restore the previous state and also to protect them from

erosion.

Only the implementation of suggested actions can enable the return of these

climatic conditions to a potential development area. We believe it is urgent and very

important understanding the role of climate change on the environment, agriculture

etc., and possible preventive actions by human. This article emphasizes the need for

addressing these concerns and urges people and institutions at all levels to work

together in providing intelligent and practical solutions.
