Sources of the Seret River are located near Ratyshchi village in Ternopil region. The river has the length of 248 km, the catchment area is about 3,900 km2. During the last 15 years seven small hydropower stations (SHPS) have been constructed in the Seret riverbed (Zahidhydroenergo, Velykohaivs’ka, Lux-2, Yanivs’ka, Chortkivs’ka, Bilche-Zolotets’ka, Bilche-Zolotets’ka-2, and Kasperivs’ka). Since all the SHPS are situated in the Seret riverbed and have a dam which decelerate water flow velocity, they influence the water runoff, sediments runoff, and water quality.

On the basis of geodesic pretentious novelties the transversal types of river-bed are built r. Stryj, nearbyс. Stryj. The analysis of results of supervisions is given by possibility to draw conclusion about the processes of transfer and accumulation gravel the masses in a river-bed and lower lyinga valley Stryj.
