SUMMARY - BULGARIA: 
 
-- June 17 A new point of entry in Lesovo was opened at the

and Balchik. 
 
A. SITE ASSESSMENTS AND MEETINGS DURING REPORTING PERIOD 
 
1. June 20 - 24 Bulgaria hosted the "Southeastern Europe 
Seminar towards NATO and EU Accession: Effective Export 
Control Legislation - Lessons Learned."  This seminar built 
on the 2002 regional seminar aimed at contributing to the 
process of harmonization of the export control legislation 
and strengthening the mechanisms for its implementation. 
Albania, Bulgaria; Bosnia and Herzegovina; Croatia; 
Macedonia; Moldova; Romania; and Serbia and Montenegro 
participated. 
 
2. June 26 - July 1 EXBS team (Advisor and Staff Assistants 
from Bulgaria and Romania) traveled to Kapitan Andreevo to 
review the port operation and discuss the portal monitor 
operation and location.  Currently, the portal monitor at is 
still giving false alarms.  In addition, the vehicles queues 
at the exit point continue to disrupt the portal monitor 
operation.  TTFSE Advisor Ivan Taborsky is attempting to 
improve the exit queuing but the placement of the portal 
monitor interferes with these changes.  The DOE after action 
report from their May 2005 site visit recommends that the 
portal monitor be moved to a new location within the port. 
By a separate action requests have been made to DOE to 
accelerate this process. 
 
--EXBS also visited the Customs Canine Training Center at 
Balchik to observe their training procedures in preparation 
for the Bulgarian Customs exchange in Sep 2005.  As a result 
of this visit the director of the training center is being 
included in the group participating in the Customs exchange 
so that he can observe the U.S. Canines program in training 
and in action. 
 
B. TRAINING CONDUCTED DURING REPORTING PERIOD

that the portal monitor at Ruse detected radioactive 
material in a load of scrap material.  Open source
