  3. Water Information System of Bosnia and Herzegovina

  4. Water Agencies in Bosnia and Herzegovina Agency for Sava River Basin District-Sarajevo http://www.voda.ba/isv-i-monitoring Agency for Adriatic Sea River Basin District-Mostar http://www.jadran.ba/ Public institution „Vode Srpske“-Bijeljina http://www.voders.org/index.php/vode-srpske/informacioni-sistem Data web distribution

  5. Water Information System of Bosnia and Herzegovina Spatial database of WIS consists of modules (cadastre) according to thematic areas of water management. So far, the following modules are implemented: • Modul1 – Cadastre of surface water and water facilities • Modul2 – Model of topographic data • Modul3 – Cadastre of characterization of water areas and river basins • Modul4 – Cadastre of water documentation • Modul5 – Cadastre of water use, water protection • Modul6 – Cadastre of public water • Modul7 – Cadastre of groundwater, transitional and coastal waters

  6. Legal background for water data State level Agency for Statistics of BiH (BHAS) (BD stat. Bureau) Central Bank of BiH Institute for Statistics of FBiH RS Institute of Statistics Other producers of statistics in FBiH Other producers of statistics in RS Entity level • Legal background: Statistical laws, Environmental laws, Water laws, Results of national initiatives: various strategy papers, NEAP, LEAP-s and other relevant documents; Results of international assistance programs and projects Workshop on Water Statistics, Geneve, 13 May 2014

  7. Existing water data – JQ Inland Waters 2014Population connected to public water supplyPopulation connected to WWT • Data are mainly collected via statistical water survey questionnaires and processed to fit JQ-IW. • PUBLIC SEWAGE SYSTEM (collect the following data: the amount of waste water by source of pollution; waste water treatment; the amount of treated and under treated waste water by place of release; the sewage system) • EXPLOITATION OF WATER IN MINING AND QUARRYING, MANUFACTURING, ELECTRICITY SUPPLY AND WATER SUPPLY (collect the following data: pumping and supply of water; used of water in industry; discharge of used waste water) • VOLUME OF WATER PROVIDED AND SUPPLIED AND VOLUME OF WATER LOSS FROM PUBLIC WATER SUPPLY (collect data on: volume of water taken by the water supply system from; volume of water supplied from the water systems, by users and by settlements; water loss during the water distribution, the number of connections and the length of primary and secondary water supply system) • External administrative sources are: • Hydromet offices from FBiH and RS • UWWT plants Workshop on Water Statistics, Geneve, 13 May 2014

  14. OBJECTIVES OF WATER POLICY IN BOSNIA AND HERZEGOVINA- document “Plan of Water Policy in Bosnia and Herzegovina”, Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Relationships of B&H Holders of implementation are: MoFTER BiH, Entity Ministries, Water Agencies, Cantonal ministries responsible for water management, Local authorities .

  15. Recent major projects-planned changes – (in statistics and water management) “Implementation of Sida statistical cooperation” Through the component Water Statistics were carried out to improving statistical questionnaires and methodological standards for conducting these surveys. “IPA MBP 2011- Component Water statistics” • IPA was focused mainly onto improvement of data collection, compliation and transmission to Eurostat • Additionally assessment of BiH quality water statistics data was made • Practical filling of Eurostat / OECD Joint questionniare on inland waters with calculating missing values • Practical filling UNSD/UNEP Questionnaire-Section Water

  16. Expectation from the Project „Capacity Building in the Water Sector“, started 2014 • Assistance in transposition and iplementation of EU water directives • Capacity building • Water Information System Project of Environmental Protection Fund of FBiH„ 2014th - year investment in projects” • These are infrastructure projects for water protection of importance for FBiH financed and co-financed by credit and grant funds • The focus of the Environmental Protection Fund goal is to continue to encourage projects to protect water sources, which includes: • an increase of connection and reduce losses from public water supply systems, • increasing of connection to the public water network, • to achieve good status of groundwater and surface water through the construction, reconstruction and repair of public sewerage systems and wastewater treatment, standing out from the Environmental Protection Fund of FBiH.

  17. Challenges for Statistics • BiH Household Census 2013 data will be available soon, the first data after 1991 • Agriculture census is planned, containing data on irrigation. Not clear whether it will take place or not. • To improve closer cooperation and coordination between users, stakeholders and statistics in general • Ensuring proper measures for data users, users should find what they want easily(research materials for academia etc...) • Production of more and more available statistical data used for environment strategy development , Workshop on Water Statistics, Geneve, 13 May 2014

  18. Challenges for Statistics • BHAS needs intense efforts directed towards improving cooperation with other, primarily Hydrometeorological Institute and Agencies for Water (since they use different data formats in reporting water data) • To create the basis for gathering: • An additional water data for administrative sources • Better level of cooperation and eventually special project that would harmonize present administrative and methodological approaches. Workshop on Water Statistics, Geneve, 13 May 2014

  19. Actions/ways for addressing the shortcomings Urgent measures for improve the current situation; To achieve necessary preconditions for effective implementation of EU directives related to the water sector, it is essential to undertake, in a short period of time, the following actions: • harmonize laws on waters in accordance with EU directives, • harmonize the obligations and responsibilities of all the institutions / organs to fulfill, the obligations that BiH must be carried on the basis of international agreements related to the water sector , • to hire new staff in the institutions responsible for the management of water resources in order to reach percentage of employees in relation to total population, which is common for the water sector in the EU, • prepare master plans for: • water supply, drainage and wastewater • treatment plants in Bosnia and Herzegovina • reinforcefiscal discipline for user of water resources in order to efficiently collect fees which are defined in existing legislation,

  20. Actions/ways for addressing the shortcomings • thoroughly agree with the statistical authorities types of information relevant to the planning and designing of the water sector and method of processing data • needs for water accounts (SEEA methodology) • complete set of high-quality water statistics (balance extent and burden within institutions) • To solve general problems with coordination in collecting water data
