SELECTED PROBLEMS OF ESTABLISHING THE PROTECTION AREAS OF THE MAIN GROUNDWATER RESERVOIRES

Journal Title: Biuletyn Państwowego Instytutu Geologicznego - Year 2011, Vol 445, Issue 445

Abstract

The establishment of the protection areas of the main groundwater reservoirs is one of the important tasks for the implementation of the Frame Water Directive as well as for the planning, water management and water protection in Poland. In 2009 at the National Water Board order the 6 year program was initiated to document protection areas for 116 reservoirs. The carried out analysis of the existing legal regulations revealed the necessity to undertake urgent legislative initiatives which should improve the process of establishing the MGR protection areas. The implementation of these initiatives should be accelerated and the enforcement of the protection measures should be facilitated. The main actions in this respect are to supplement the Water Law with among others the list of orders, bans and limitations possible to be introduced to protect a reservoir. A legal regulation must be elaborated and implemented as far as the detailed principles of the protection area establishment are concerned. It is necessary to make land use planning regulations and water management planning regulations compatible.
