The governor of the Delta reservation, Paul Cononov, said the costs for the operation amount to a maximum EUR2 million, and will be 90% covered by former owners of vessels and 10% by the Romanian government, as not all owners have been tracked down.

Romania’s Transport Ministry unfolded a similar program in 2003-2004.
