STATE OF WATER RESOURCES USAGE OF UKRAINE

Abstract

The state of the use of water from natural water bodies for water supply of industries and population of the regions of Ukraine form available water facilities is highlighted. The total share of land under water and open wetlands are calculated and analyzed, as well as the amount of total water intake from the natural water objects and use of fresh, recycled and consistently (re)used water in the calculation of per capita and the share of water in total use for production needs, total water removal and the share of dirty discharge into the surface water objects from total water removal volume by the regions of Ukraine. On the 1st of January, 2015 lands of water fund occupied 3 409,0 hectare (5,6 %) of country territory, also lands under water – 2 426,4 hectare (4,0 %) and open wetlands – 982,6 hectare (1,6 %). The most summary part of lands under water and open wetlands are found in Kherson, Odesa, Poltava, Volyn, Kyiv, Rivne, Cherkasy regions, in the Autonomous Republic of Crimea and in Kyiv City; the least – in Donetsk, Ivano-Frankivsk, Ternopil, Transcarpathia and Luhansk regions and in Sevastopol City. The most amounts of general gathering water from nature water objects are fixed in Donetsk, Dnipropetrovsk, Kherson and Zaporizhia regions; the least are in Chernivtsi, Volhyn, Ternopil, and Transcarpathia regions. The most amount of fresh water usage are fixed in Dnipropetrovsk, Zaporizhia, Donetsk, Kherson and Kyiv regions and in Kyiv City; the least are fixed in Chernivtsi, Ternopil, Khmelnytskyi, Volyn, and Transcarpathian regions. The most amount of circulating and repeated used water are fixed in Zaporizhia, Donetsk, Dnipropetrovsk regions; the least are in Ternopil, Kherson, Volyn, and Transcarpathian regions. The most amount of general drainage in the surface water objects are found in Dnipropetrovsk, Donetsk and Zaporizhia regions; the least are in Transcarpathia and Khmelnytskyi regions. From the general amount of drainage the biggest part of dumping of the polluted reversed water in surface water objects are fixed in Luhansk, Sumy, Donetsk regions; the least are in Kyiv, Vinnytsia, Ivano-Frankivsk, Volhyn, Poltava, Zhytomyr regions and in Kyiv City. The regions, united in classical groups, are fixed and maps-schemes are elaborated according to results of this study.
