No artificial snow in Bulgaria's Pamporovo after dam problems


 Pamporovo resort in the Rhodope Mountains will be without artificial snow in the 2007-2008 winter season because the dam providing water for the snow machines had been drained, Pamporovo ski school director Lyubomir Sankiiski said.
The dam had been drained because it did not meet technical requirements, Smolyan's National Service Civil Protection said.
The lifts in the resort would start functioning around December 15, investor bg said, but they would also function between December 7 and 9 in line with student holidays.
Prices for lift passes would remain the same as in the 2006-2007 season. A day pass would cost 49 leva. For loyal clients of the resort, passes would be offered at a 35 per cent discount.
UK and Irish tourists were expected to be the main clients but German and Russian groups are also expected.
In the nearby Chepelare resort, lift passes would cost 25 leva. The winter season in the resort would open on December 21. Several new hotels would be opened for the new season, increasing the resort's available number of beds to nearly 400.
