This document was designed as a tool for assessing and guiding water management in Spain. Although Spain’s future water policy is outlined in the conclusions, the points mentioned refer only to quantitative aspects of water resources without considering the issue of quality. Nonetheless, the issue of river, reservoir, lake and groundwater pollution is taken into account in the assessment section. Amongst the problems related to water quality, the White Paper notes, among others, problems related with Directives 91/271/EEC and 91/676/EEC. A brief summary of the main issues addressed is provided below. Surface water and diffuse pollution. In general, diffuse pollution produced by agricultural and livestock raising activities (e.g.

Rivas and A. Cendrero DCITTYM (Division de Ciencias de la Tierra) Universidad de Cantabria Santander, Spain ABSTRACT ---..- • RIVAS, V. and CENDRERO, A. 1990. Use of natural and artificial accretion on the north coast of Spain: Historical trends and assessment of some environmental and economic consequences. .tllllllll:. Journal ofCoastal Research, 7(2),491-507. Fort Lauderdale (Florida). ISSN 0749-0208. •• • - · The evolution of estuarine and coastal wetland zones along the sector between the Deva and ~ .~ Bidasoa rivers, after the Flandrian maximun, is analyzed using air photographs, old maps and t!!I31l- ij'" --q & charts, and field observations. The aims of this study were to quantify historical development --+f, 4&-- of the land reclamation process in the area and to assess some of its environmental and economic con sequences. 2 The total area emerged during the post-Flandrian retreat was approximatel, 24 km . The 2 new land areas formed afterwards cover some 73 km . Out of these, around 64 km are estimated to be due to direct human intervention (draining, filling and reclamation). This artificial area represents 40% of the estuarine and wetland zones. Assuming an uniform rate of accretion (an obvious simplification) it appears that new land spaces were formed, through natural processes, at a rate of about 0.22 km2/century after the Flandrian retreat. The approximate distribution of land-use types in the artificially created lands is: 36% agriculture, 22% industry, 14% residential, 13% others and 15% without use.

Santander, SPAIN. 11–13 April 2012 WELCOME TO ISOBAY 13 The Bay of Biscay is an area of the Atlantic Ocean enclosed by the Galician coast (NW Spain) and the Brittany coast (N France), with an extension almost half of the Iberian Peninsula and with a high proportion of the Spanish and French population living within less than 60 km from its coasts. As in all fields of the marine environment, it is subject to human pressures such as chronic pollution or accidental caused by maritime disasters, overfishing, alteration of marine habitats and the irrefutable consequences of climate change. However, from Brest to Vigo there is a large number of scientific institutions and organizations, distributed along this geographical environment, which are exploring and studying different aspects of its oceanographic phenomena: physical, chemical and biological, its flora and fauna, their ecosystems and resources. In summary this scientific potential allows to keep on investigating in all these disciplines for a better management of the functioning of coastal and deep water ecosystems in the Bay of Biscay.
