Assessment of the Water Bodies’ Ecological Status: Unificated Approaches to Attaining of the «Ecology» National Project

The authors have recommended the sequence of actions to realize the Federal project «Preservation of unique water bodies» as a component of the National project «Ecology». We have presented practical recommendations concerning measures aimed at the federal project realization, a standard list of actions and a toolbox for assessment of the water bodies' ecological safety. We have demonstrated a possibility of the unificated approach to studying the dynamics of the basic indicator of anthropogenic load in order to assess the watercourses quality (dynamics along the river flow) and water bodies (dynamics in time) taking into account local and diffuse negative impacts. The standardization areas that are to compensate deficiencies in nature/protective legislation.
