discharge

The paper deals with the assessment of a surface water quality in the Kherson region, as well as the assessment of a technogenic load on the surface water bodies by the volumes of the wastewater and pollutants discharges over a long period of time. The problem of supplying the regions of Ukraine with water is urgent for many regions, including the Kherson region. The materials from the Regional reports, Ecological passports on monitoring a state the surface water as well as the data on the volumes of the sewage and pollutants discharges were used as baseline data.

The paper considers the main sources of anthropogenic pollution of the surface waters of the North-Western Black Sea Coast regions. The level of anthropogenic loading on the surface water by the volumes of sewage and pollutant discharges into the water objects is estimated.
