2 WORLD WATER WEEK Stockholm, 23 th August 2015 Co-operative water governance: catalyst for sustainable development and comprehensive security Water cooperation in South-Eastern Europe and the response to the floods in May 2014 Nataša Milić Acting Director, Water Directorate, Ministry of Agriculture and Environmental Protection Republic of Serbia
3 River Network Serbia on the Danube: most of the territory (more than 90%) falls within the Danube River Basin. All major rivers (except the Morava) define or cross the state border. The Danube River Basin is shared by 19 states (14 with significant catchment areas). The middle course of the Danube runs through Serbia or along its state border: 588 km or 20.6% of total length. Two major tributaries join the Danube in Serbia: the Tisa (largest in terms of catchment area) and the Sava (most significant in terms of volume). The catchment area of the largest left tributary of the Danube the Tisa is shared by 5 states (Ukraine, Slovakia, Romania, Hungary and Serbia). The lower course of the Tisa, 160 km of 966 km (16.6% of total length), runs through Serbia. The catchment area of the Sava is shared by 6 countries (Slovenia, Bosnia & Herzegovina, Croatia, Montenegro, Serbia and Albania (small catchment area)). The lower course of the Sava, 210 km (or 25.6% of total length), runs through Serbia. The catchment area of the largest right tributary of the Sava the Drina is shared by 4 states (Albania, Montenegro, Bosnia & Herzegovina and Serbia). The Tamiš, the Timok, the Nera, the Karaš, the Nišava and a number of smaller rivers cross or define the state border. 3
4 BILATERAL Synopsis of International Cooperation Active bilateral cooperation with Hungary and Romania (agreements date back to 1955) new agreements needed. Inactive bilateral cooperation with Bulgaria (agreement dates back to 1958 but no cooperation since 1982) new agreement - negotiation started in No agreements at present with neighboring internationally-recognized states (Croatia, Bosnia & Herzegovina, Montenegro and Macedonia) following the breakup of the former Yugoslavia, internally shared rivers and groundwater resources acquired transboundary status, which requires the establishment of inter-governmental and international cooperation in the field of water bilateral agreements. Negotiation with Croatia started in MULTILATERAL Convention on Protection and Sustainable Use of the Danube River (Sofia Convention, 1994) since Framework Agreement on the Sava River Basin (2002). UN Convention on the Protection and Use of Transboundary Watercourses and International Lakes (Helsinki Water Convention, 1992) since
5 International Cooperation on the Danube and Sava river basins ICPDR - International Commission for the River Protection of the Danube The Convention established the ICPDR, which acts as a forum for cooperation and dialogue on water related issues and environmental issues dealing with water. The ICPDR has the mandate to ensure conservation, improvement and efficient use of surface water and groundwater; reduce inputs of nutrients and hazardous substances; control floods and ice hazards; and reduce pollution loads to the Black Sea. Since 2000, the ICPDR is the coordinating body for implementing the EU WFD. International Sava River Basin Commission FASRB Framework Agreement on the Sava River Basin as the result of the process of cooperation known as the Sava River Basin Initiative between four riparian countries of the Sava River Basin (parties: Bosnia & Herzegovina, Croatia, Serbia (formerly FR Yugoslavia, Serbia & Montenegro) and Slovenia) - the first development-oriented multilateral agreement in the region signed after geopolitical changes in the 1990s. 5
