Integrated Nutrients Pollution Control Project LN 4873 – RO WBTF RO MINISTRY OF ENVIRONMENT AND CLIMATE CHANGE ROMANIA Naiana Milea - PMU Director Government of RomaniaGlobal Environment FacilityThe World Bank

Methodology for evaluating the reduction of nutrients discharge in the Project area a) use of analysis data provided by a ground and surface water monitoring program performed by ANAR, in the Project area, using 124 piezometers and 84 surface water sampling points; b) use of proxies to estimate the reduced N & P discharge into the water bodies.

Stress reduction measurements: Pollution reduction practices Type on intervention AchievementsStress reduction Manure Management investments Completed in 34 communes, (50% of the localities included in the Project): 39 communal level manure storage, 1236 individual household storage facilities, 29 sets of equipment for manure management 51,120 kg N/year, 29,820 kg P/year. Municipal waste water New/extension of domestic wastewater sewerage systems and treatment plants in 16 villages receiving also investments for livestock manure proper management at community level. 6,400 kg N/year, 1,025 kg P/year, 62,735 kg BOD/year. Promotion of the Code of Good Agricultural Practices reduced or conservative tillage, nutrient management plans with soil testing, use of leguminous plants in crop rotation, use of organic fertilizers, plantation of buffer strips and vegetative barriers, public awareness and better information, etc 10,320kg N/year-2012; 24,000kg N/year-2015 in Project area
