Background
The quality of the Mediterranean environment has been increasingly threatened by human activities, with a particular impact on the coastal and marine areas. Rapid and insufficiently controlled urbanisation, as well as unsustainable development of industry, agriculture or tourism play an important role in this degradation process, which results in: water scarcity, pollution of the environment (water, soils, air) by untreated wastewater, municipal, agricultural and industrial waste, coastal degradation due to pressure of human activities and climate change effects, land degradation, desertification and biodiversity losses.
During the10th Anniversary of the Barcelona Process Summit in2005, the Euro-Mediterranean Partners committed themselves to increasing efforts to substantially reduce the pollution of the Mediterranean by2020 in what is called the "Horizon2020 Initiative" (H2020). Horizon2020 was endorsed during the Environment Ministerial Conference held in Cairo in November2006 and is one of the key initiatives run under the Union for the Mediterranean (UfM). It tackles specifically the following sources of pollution: municipal waste, wastewater treatment and industrial emissions. A Road-Map has been adopted, which focuses on the following four pillars:
· Identification of projects to reduce the most significant sources of pollution.
· Identification of capacity-building measures to help neighbouring countries create national environmental administrations that are able to develop and police environmental laws.
· Use of the EC’s research budget to develop greater knowledge of environmental issues relevant to the Mediterranean and ensure this is shared.
· Develop indicators to monitor the success of Horizon2020.
Thanks for the invitation. I believe most of MEP (Mechanical, Electrical, Plumping) projects should focus first in protecting the customer safety from any kind of disaster and power shutdown disruptions, also they should focus on other alternative solutions, such as planting an alternative power generators in case if we got a power shutdown.
MEP ( Electrical , Mechanical and Plumbing )
As per My opinion , in all these the Main focus should be on the continuous and Genuine supply of products to the costumers ...
Thanks, agreed with colleagues answers.
Thank you Alex, am learning from the experts
I agree with experts and I would say safety comes first.
MEP ... as in Mechanical, Electrical, Pluming ... I would say that all mechanical items are running smooth no down time to be expected ...
Electrical - all connections and wires are up to specifications and not accidents or down time to be expected ...
Pluming - all pipes and.. all fixtures are in the right place ... having piping to the building and in the building in the budget or on site...
All items needed are ordered, in transit or on site in it's designated place awaiting call to be installed.
Mechanical, electrical, and plumbing services (MEP) is a significant component of the construction supply chain. MEP design is critical for design decision-making, accurate documentation, performance and cost-estimating, construction planning, managing and operating the resulting facility.
The most important in MEP projects to foucs on is to have clarity of workscope between the Contractor and SubContractor, also the agreement of contract between Contractor and Client scope work.
1. Language of contracts with service provider vendors should be 'Iron Clad' with clearly defined scope of work, estimations and responsibilties.
2. All the stakeholders have clear understanding of risks and penalty caluses.
3. Communication with all the stakeholders is clear, crips and targeted. No irrelevant or additional information is provided to any unintended project stakeholder.
