E/ULADZIMIR ZUEV, BUG BASIN TOTAL LENGTH OF THE RIVER IS

831 KM

LENTH AS A BORDER IS 363 KM (WITHIN BELARUS 169 KM, 194 KM).

THE TOTAL AREA OF A BASIN IS 73479 SQ.KM, WITHIN BELARUS 9990 SQ.KM, 39420 – , 24 069 - UKRAINE. STATE OF RIVER BASIN MANAGEMENT PLANS –BUG BASIN

• POLAND – EU WATER FRAMEWORK DIRECTIVE, WATER LAW – 2001; ACT ON INLAND NAVIGATION - 2000; ENVIRONMENT PROTECTION LAW – 2001; ACT ON FISHING – 2004; ACT ON INLAND FISHING – 1985 AND DETAILED REGULATIONS PROVIDED BY MINISTRY OF ENVIRONMENT • UKRAINE – LAW ADOPTION PROCES: LAW18.03.2004 №1629-ІV “ON THE STATE PROGRAM OF ADAPTATION OF THE UKRAINIAN LEGISLATION TO THE EU LEGISLATION” MAKES UKRAINIAN LAW CLOSER TO WDF TILL 2020 • BELARUS – COUNTRY WATER LAW; ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION LAW STATE OF JOINT RIVER BASIN / TRANSBOUNDARY WATER MANAGEMENT BODIES

EXPANSION OF CROSS-BORDER SYSTEM OF SEWAGE TREATMENT IN A RIVER BASIN THE WESTERN BUG", 2013-2015, THE PROGRAM OF POLISH-UKRAINIAN COOPERATION FOR CROSS-BORDER COOPERATION OF POLAND- THE PROTECTION OF THE BOUNDARY BELARUS-UKRAINE 2007-2013. WATERS AGAINST POLLUTION – MUNICIPAL ENTERPRISE OF HOUSING AND COMMUNAL SERVICES "KAMENETS HOUSING GOVERNMENTAL BODIES FROM LUBLIN AND COMMUNAL SERVICES AND WOŁYŃ INTERNATIONAL PROJECT OF THE EUROPEAN UNION ON PREVENTION AND TO CONTROL OF FLOODS ON THE CROSS-BORDER RIVERS (2010-2012) - FLOOD-WISE PROJECT ENVIRONMENTAL GOALS OF WDF

GOOD WATER STATUS • GOOD CHEMICAL STATUS • GOOD ECOLOGICAL STATUS WHICH IS MEASURED THE FOLLOWING PARAMETERS: QUALITY GROUPS OF ORGANISMS LIVING IN WATER (MICROSCOPIC ALGAE, AQUATIC PLANTS, SO- CALLED. MACROPHYTES, BENTHIC INVERTEBRATES, FISH) GOOD ECOLOGICAL STATUS OF WATERS REQUIRED BY THE WATER FRAMEWORK DIRECTIVE = AS CLOSE AS POSSIBLE TO THE NATURAL STATE OF THE RIVER AND ITS VALLEY AND THE STATUS OF POPULATIONS OF ORGANISMS INHABITING THE RIVER. THE RIVER IS NOT THE RECEIVER OF WATER DRAINAGE, SEWAGE AND WATERWAY. MOST OF ALL THE RIVER SHOULD BE FULLY FUNCTIONAL ECOSYSTEM. SO WE HAVE TO JUSTIFY WHAT KIND OF RIVER IS ACCORDING TO WFD ACTUAL ENVIRONMENTAL PROBLEMS OF BUG BASIN

• BIOGEN LEACHING FROM POINT SOURCES (LACK OF WASTE WATER TREATMENTS, LACK OF WASTE WATER MANAGMENT) • BIOGEN LEACHING FROM NON POINT SOURCES (INTENSIVE AGRICULTURE) • EUTHROPHICATION AND LOSS BIODIVERSITY • RIVER REGULATION • LOSS THE WETLANDS • HEAVY METALS - BREST PROPOSAL OF SOLUTION

• ORGANIZING PUBLIC HEARINGS, ROUND TABLES, ENVIRONMENTAL • PARTICIPATION IN DECISION-MAKING REFERENDUMS ON THE WAYS OF CONCRETE ENVIRONMENTAL PROBLEMS SOLUTION;

PROCESS OR FORMATION OF • PARTICIPATION IN PREPARATION OF PROJECTS ON MANAGEMENT DECISIONS THAT WOULD IMPROVE THE ENVIRONMENT STATE, ENVIRONMENTAL POLICY IN THE ESPECIALLY PROJECTS ON RESTORATION OF LANDSCAPES ON THE WATERSHED TERRITORY , DECREASE OF WATERSHED POLLUTION ( WESTERN BUH RIVER BASIN FOR EXAMPLE, PREPARATION THE DRAFT DECISIONS ON ESTABLISHMENT OF THE PROTECTIVE COASTAL ZONES FOR RIVERS FOR LOCAL COUNCILS );

• LOBBYING IN THE BASIN COUNCIL THE NATURE-PROTECTING INITIATIVES OF NGOS

• ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSING AND PROTEST OF ADOPTED MANAGEMENT ACTS IN CASE THEY HAVE A NEGATIVE IMPACT ON THE ENVIRONMENT ( FOR EXAMPLE , PUBLIC ASSESSING ON INADMISSIBILITY OF CONSTRUCTION OF GAS STATIONS IN THE ZONE OF IMPACT ON WATER OBJECTS PROPOSAL OF SOLUTION

• • DETECTION OF LOCAL ENVIRONMENTAL PROBLEMS AND CHECKING THE PROCESS OF INFORMING AUTHORITY AND WIDE PUBLIC ABOUT THEM ( FOR EXAMPLE, DESTRUCTION OF LANDSCAPES AND ENVIRONMENT DESTRUCTION OR NATURE OBJECTS) ; PUBLIC MONITORING • WORK OF PUBLIC ENVIRONMENTAL INSPECTORS; • INITIATION OF ENVIRONMENTAL EXPERTISE AND CHECKING ACTIONS OF DIFFERENT ENTERPRISES SITUATED IN THE BASIN; • LOBBYING THE SOLUTIONS THAT PROMOTE INTRODUCTION OF TECHNOLOGIES THAT REDUCE THE AMOUNT OF DISCHARGE, SEWAGE WATERS, MATERIALS AND POWER-CONSUMPTION OF THE ENTERPRISES AND ALSO PROMOTE ENVIRONMENT-FRIENDLY PRODUCTION. PROPOSAL OF SOLUTION

• INFORMING POPULATION ABOUT CONCRETE ENVIRONMENTAL PROBLEMS, • INFORMATION-EDUCATION ESPECIALLY RIVER PROBLEMS OR ITS SPECIAL REGIONS, CAUSES OF THESE PROBLEMS APPEARANCE ( FOR EXAMPLE RELATED WITH THE ABSENCE OF DIRECTION COASTAL PROTECTING ZONES); • DIFFERENT TYPES OF EDUCATIONAL WORK WITH POPULATION (TALKS, QUESTIONNAIRES, ENVIRONMENTAL PROPAGANDA TEAMS, APPLICATION TO COURT BECAUSE OF VIOLATION OF NATURE PROTECTION LEGISLATION ETC.);

• INFORMING PUBLIC ABOUT PLANNED PROJECTS – ABOUT EVERYTHING THAT IS PLANNED TO BE DONE WITHIN THE RIVER NETWORK AND THE WHOLE WATERSHED;

• INFORMATION ACTIONS, CAMPAIGNS IN SCHOOLS, MASS MEDIA, USING DIFFERENT PUBLICATIONS, DISTRIBUTION OF LEAFLETS AND OTHER PUBLISHED MATERIALS;

• PREPARATION AND DISTRIBUTION OF DIFFERENT PRINTED MATERIALS WITH THE MOST WIDESPREAD INFORMATION ABOUT THE RIVER AND ITS BASIN PROPOSAL OF SOLUTION

• INTRODUCTION OF PRACTICAL ACTION PLANS ON CONSERVATION AND • DIRECT ACTIVITY ON RESTORATION OF RIVERS; ESTABLISHMENT OF COASTAL PROTECTIVE ZONES, WATER PROTECTION ZONES OF RIVERS, LOBBYING THE GRADUAL WITHDRAWAL OF HARMFUL FOR RIVER OBJECTS OUTSIDE THE WATER ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION OF PROTECTION ZONES OF THE RIVERS; BUG BASIN • INTRODUCTION OF PROJECTS ON RESTORATION OF FORESTS IN THE BASIN AND PROJECTS ON CREATION AND MANAGEMENT OF NATURE-PROTECTION TERRITORIES, CREATION OF ELEMENTS OF ENVIRONMENT NETWORK , CAN BE THE RIVER WETLANDS;

• INTRODUCTION OF THE PROJECTS ON RESTORATION OF BIORESERVATION IN DWELLING SITES INCLUDING CLEANING, SANITATION AND WIDENING THE TERRITORIES OF PARKS, GARDENS AND SQUARES, GREEN ZONES AND OTHER ELEMENTS OF NATURE LANDSCAPES AND ECOSYSTEMS AT THE SETTLES LANDSCAPES ETC. ;

• CREATION AND ACTIVITY OF THE PUBLIC COMMUNITIES AND NGOS FOR PROTECTION , MANAGEMENT , CARE AND RESTORATION OF THE RIVERS’ STATE;

• INTRODUSING NEW ENVIRONMENT –FRIENDLY TECHNOLOGY NEW COMMON ENVIRONMENTAL PROBLEM – E 40 E 40 – CASCADE LOWER VISTULA - 10 DAMS E40 – BETWEEN AND BREST

• MARITIME INSTITUTE IN GDANSK PROGRAMME EU CROSS-BORDER COOPERATION POLAND - BELARUS - UKRAINE HAS DEVELOPED A PROJECT CALLED:"REBUILDING THE WATERWAY E-40 SECTION - VISTULA: FROM STRATEGY TO PLANNING • 3 VARIANTS AND CASCADE OF LOVER VISTULA IS NECCESSARY KING WATER WAY DNIEPR - BUG
