  1. EU WFD and GIS: Status and plans in Lithuania Aldona Margeriene Director of Basin Management and Pollution Prevention Department Environmental protection agency

  2. Status of WFD implementionin Lithuania The transposition of WFD to Lithuanian law is completed 4 River Basin Districts established EPA designated as a Competent Authority responsible for the development and implementation of River Basin Management Plans (BMP) for all RBDs 4 Coordination boards for each River basin district are foreseen for the involvement of various stakeholders into management process Environmental protection agency

  3. River Basin Districts in Lithuania Latvia Venta RBD Lielupe RBD Daugava RBD NemunasRBD Russia Poland Belarus Environmental protection agency

  4. GIS layers under WFD requirements 1:50000 • Deliniation of River Basin Districts (RBD) boundaries (vector data) • Deliniation of river basins and subbasins boundaries (vector data) • Attribution groundwater bodies to RBD • Deliniation of rivers, lakes and ponds boundaries and geocoding • Deliniation of rivers, lakes, transitional and coastal waters to types (not finished) • Deliniation of rivers, lakes transitional and coastal waters to water bodies (not finished) Environmental protection agency

  5. Environmental protection agency

  6. River types in the pilot catchment Environmental protection agency

  7. GIS layers under WFD requirements • Protected areas register : • Basing waters • Protected zones for drinking water (not finished) • Protected areas according Birds and Habitats directives requirements (not finished) Environmental protection agency

  8. Water Resource Management Information System (WRMIS) aim of WRMIS: • to establish a WEB portal to connect information from different institutions based on different technology in a common information system by use of the Internet, XML technologies, and by bridging to well known existing systems. institutions using WEB portal for data exchange : • Environmental Protection Agency • Geological Service • Joint Marine Center • Hydrometeorological Servise • Environmental Protection departments Environmental protection agency

  9. GIS layers in Lithuania • Infrastructure 1:50000 • Relief 1:50000 • Landuse scale 1:100000 (CORINE) • Hydronetwork 1:50000 • Soils 1:300000 • Protected areas 1:200000 • Geology 1:50000 • Population (2001 data) 1:50000 Environmental protection agency

  10. Softwear and Hardwearin EPA • ArcInfo 8.3 for data collection, analyses and presentation • ArcView 3.x for data collection, analyses and presentation • ArcSDE 8.3 for data storage • Oracle 8 for data storage • ArcIms 4.0 for data wieving and presentation from the Web Environmental protection agency

  11. Proposals on GIS and information infrustructure analysis in Nemunas and Daugava basins project • Integrated common Nemunas and Dauguva data system : • GIS data • Monitoring stations • Point and non point sources • Hydropowers and dams • Protected areas • Polluted teritories Environmental protection agency

  12. Environmental protection agency

  13. Creation common Nemunas and Dauguva river basin analysis tools for : • evaluation of Nemunas and Dauguva river basin pollution sources, • Urban and teritorial planing, turism infrostructure development • Evaluation of distribution of branches of industry, population density, water use, dangerous substances • Exchange of data between Nemunas and Dauguva basin sharing countries • Public information Environmental protection agency

  14. Pollution from point sources Environmental protection agency
