ACTIVITIES IN 2009

The purpose of the project was to assist Turkey in the water management

in accordance with the EU water legislation, in particular the WFD

(2000/60/EC), Urban Wastewater Treatment Directive (UWWTD

91/271/EEC) and Dangerous Substances Directive (DSD 76/464/EEC) and

daughter directives in order to reinforce Turkey’s accession to EU and thus

provide support to the water sector. This project had been executed from

December 2007 till March 2010.

ACTIVITIES IN 2009

The objective of the project is to introduce sustainable natural resource management practices in 28 river basins in Anatolia and Turkey’s Black Sea region and thereby raise incomes of communities affected by resource degradation.

encourage local communities to take responsibility for planning and implementing an integrated approach to sustainable resource management in selected river basins;

introduce communities to more environmental friendly farming and forestry production practices that raise land productivity, release pressure on marginal land and improve household income;

help reduce nutrient discharge from agricultural sources into the Black Sea;


ACTIVITIES IN 2009

strengthen the policy formulation and regulatory capacity towards meeting European Union (EU) standards for agricultural nutrient pollution control;

improve the overall framework for river basin planning and management in the context of EU directives on water;

strengthen institutional capacity to promote sustainable natural resource management and raise public awareness on resource degradation issues.

Capacity Building on Water Quality Monitoring Project Capacity Building on Water Quality Monitoring Project

• The overall objective of the project is to achieve a good environmental status for surface waters.

• Strengthening Turkey’s capacity to implement the EU Water Framework Directive

•Project began it’s activities on January 2010, and project will be

finalized at the first quarter of 2013.

This Project;

will enhance the harmonization of environmental Acquis Communautaire,

especially for WFD with regarding to surface waters,

will be a good instrument for the preparation of plans and programmes for the

National Policy,

will make the supervision system more effective,

will constitute a good model for Turkey’s other basins and also neighboring

countries in terms of the objectives of integrated and holistic approach;

will enable better environmental protection and management.



Assumed Results of Project:

The legal and institutional gap analysis is executed between Turkey and EU

in terms of WFD requirements.

Capacity building of related institutions is provided on water quality

monitoring, analysis and assessment of surface water bodies in line with

WFD

Pilot implementation is executed related to monitoring of surface water

bodies for selected basins.
