Description
Division of Poland into 161 water bodies valid in 2010-2015
The first qualification of groundwater bodies, their characteristics and the preliminary assessment of their status was carried out in 2004 by the Polish Geological Institute - National Research Institute in consultation with RZGW, CIEP and the MOŚZMIL Water Management Office. 161 water bodies were identified, which were qualification due to the types and extent of aquifers, the relationship of groundwater with terrestrial ecosystems and surface waters, the possibility of water intake and in relation to the nature and extent of anthropogenic transformation of groundwater chemistry and dynamics.
According to the definition given in the Water Framework Directive, groundwater bodies include those groundwater that occur in aquifers with porosity and permeability, enabling a significant uptake in water supply to the population or a flow of significant intensity for shaping the desired state of surface waters and terrestrial ecosystems.
