WATER RESOURCES AVAILABILITY (WRA) COV Cover Page REINFO Respondent’s Information INTRO Introduction: General and Specific Comments on the tables DEF List of Definitions WRA_1 Water Resources Availability – Water balance WRA_R Surface Water Reservoir Storage (natural and man-made) WRA_S Stream flow measurements from representative stream flow gauges within the RB/RBD WRA_P Precipitation measurements from representative rain gauges within the RB/RBD WRA_GW Groundwater level measurement from observation wells located within the RB/RBD

WATER ABSTRACTIONS (WAB) COV Cover Page REINFO Respondent’s Information INTRO Introduction: General and Specific Comments on the tables DEF List of Definitions WAB_1 Water Abstractions by source and by sector (separate sheet for monthly, seasonal or annual data)

Water resources, water abstraction data aggregated at the River Basin District (RBD) Instead possible: administrative areas such as regions or provinces (within a RBD) or river basins (RB) at monthly (if available); seasonal (if available) or annual scale Provide estimates for the long-term annual average (LTAA) and latest years with available data

Emission data Hana Prchalova, CENIA 6.6. 2008 West Balkan water workshop Hana Prchalova, CENIA 9

Aims of the emissions reporting process‏ Collect relevant data of emissions for Status of Environment (SoE) assessement‏ on European level Produce review of emissions using indicator‏s Support European Commission`s policy 11

Requested data‏ Emission load (T/year or kg/year)‏ Emissions may be to a waterbody (i.e. not within) or alternatively they may be quantified at the mouth of a river Units of emissions: River Basin Districts (WFD) or River Basin - sum of emissions Timescale: one year or range of years 12

Requested data‏ Polutants: Nutrients and Organics – Total N, total P, BOD, TOC, COD Metals and hazardous – Cu, Zi, Cd, Ni, Pb, Hg; three optional hazardous substances 13

Requested data‏ Sources (for emisions to waterbody) : Diffuse emissions – agriculture, atmospheric deposition, un-connected dwellings, urban diffuse, other diffuse (forestry, aquaculture etc.), background, total diffuse Point sources – UWWTD – separated according number of P.E. or total, industry IPPC or not IPPC or total, other point sources (including contaminated sites, mining etc.), total point Sources (for emisions river mouth/catchment outlet): Not separated, total only 14

Requested data‏ Additional information: Respondent details Emissions to freshwater only or freshwater and coastal Area of River Basin District or River Basin Other relevant information from reports - such as tables and diagrams with emissions data, information describing the method used to calculate emissions or data describing the relative contribution of different sectors 15
