  1. MINISTRY OF AGRICULTURE, FORESTRY AND WATER MANAGEMENT-DIRECTORATE OF WATER- THE MONITORING PROGRAM OF THE IRON GATE ON DANUBE RIVER

  2. Second largest river basin in Europe THE MONITORING PROGRAM OF THE IRON GATE ON DANUBE RIVER

  3. THE MONITORING PROGRAM OF THE IRON GATE ON DANUBE RIVERDANUBE RIVER IN EUROPE SECOND LARGEST RIVER BASIN IN EUROPE • Catchment area of 801,463 km2 • Shared by 18 countries

  4. THE MONITORING PROGRAM OF THE IRON GATE ON DANUBE RIVER The Iron gate I and Iron gate II Hydro Power and Navigational Systems (HPNS) are built on part of the Danube River, shared by Serbia and Montenegro and Romania.

  5. THE MONITORING PROGRAM OF THE IRON GATE ON DANUBE RIVER HPNS Iron Gate I and Iron Gate II are comprised of: • MAIN STRUCTURES at km 943 and km 862,8 of the Danube River, each including -2 navigation locks -an earthen non-overflow dam -2 hydroelectric power plants -an overflow concrete gravity dam….

  6. THE MONITORING PROGRAM OF THE IRON GATE ON DANUBE RIVER The reservoir of the Iron gate II HPP extends to the upstream dam, while backwater of the Iron gate I HPP spreads 310 km on the Danube, 100 km on the Sava and 60 km on the Tisza river.

  7. THE MONITORING PROGRAM OF THE IRON GATE ON DANUBE RIVER MONITORING PROGRAM COMPRISE 9 SPECIFIC SUB-PROGRAMS FOR THE MONITORING OF: • River flow and backwater levels • Groundwater levels and drainage systems operation • Sediment regime and deposition • Ice regime

  8. THE MONITORING PROGRAM OF THE IRON GATE ON DANUBE RIVER • Agricultural land and deposition • Forests and wetlands • Flood control structures • Quality of water and sediment • Riverbank and landslide stability

  9. THE MONITORING PROGRAM OF THE IRON GATE ON DANUBE RIVERRIVER FLOW AND BACKWATER LEVELS

  10. THE MONITORING PROGRAM OF THE IRON GATE ON DANUBE RIVER 30 years of monitoring of the influenceof Iron Gate Reservoir on water levels and hydrology, sedimentation, and quality of water • 400 km of new or reconstructed levees, • 50 km of new revetments, • drainage systems on 1100 km2 of agricultural land (with 59 pumping stations)

  11. THE MONITORING PROGRAM OF THE IRON GATE ON DANUBE RIVER III – SEDIMENT REGIME The forecast indicated considerable alteration of the sediment regime in the Danube and its tributaeries - result in a relatively slow development of sediment deposits. Sediment monitoring program started 1974 and included measurement and observation of water and suspended sediment.

  12. THE MONITORING PROGRAM OF THE IRON GATE ON DANUBE RIVERSEDIMENTATION IN IRON GATE RESERVOIR(near Donji Milanovac)

  13. THE MONITORING PROGRAM OF THE IRON GATE ON DANUBE RIVER MEASUREMENTS AND OBSERVATIONS OF WATER AND SUSPENDED SEDIMENT

  14. THE MONITORING PROGRAM OF THE IRON GATE ON DANUBE RIVER V) DRAINAGE SYSTEM OPERATION -Protection of agricultural regions: • a network of open drainage channels combined with old branches of the Danube • a network of open channels combined with artesian drainage wells, pumping stations

  15. THE MONITORING PROGRAM OF THE IRON GATE ON DANUBE RIVER Depth to the groundwater level of 0.8 – 1.0 m from the terrain surface was selected as the protection criteria

  16. THE MONITORING PROGRAM OF THE IRON GATE ON DANUBE RIVER PROTECTION OF POPULATED AREAS Achieves by operating drainage wells with submersible pumps and drainage collectors. IT MAY BE CONCLUDED THAT ADEQUATELY MAINTAINED DRAINAGE SYSTEMS ASSURE A GOOD GROUNDWATER REGIME IN MOST HPNS RIVERINE AREAS.

  17. THE MONITORING PROGRAM OF THE IRON GATE ON DANUBE RIVERIMAPCTS OF THE IRON GATE DAMS • LOOSES • Resettlement • Looses of agricultural land • Environmental impacts

  18. THE MONITORING PROGRAM OF THE IRON GATE ON DANUBE RIVERIMAPCTS OF THE IRON GATE DAMS Question- IS THE RESERVOIR OF IRON GATE I BLACK POINT OF BALCAN PENISULA??

  19. THE MONITORING PROGRAM OF THE IRON GATE ON DANUBE RIVERIMAPCTS OF THE IRON GATE DAMS • POSITIVE • Production of electricity • Safe navigation • New jobs • Positive environmental impacts on endangered species of flora and fauna especially birds

  20. THE MONITORING PROGRAM OF THE IRON GATE ON DANUBE RIVERIMAPCTS OF THE IRON GATE DAMS • Production of electricity -11 milliards KWH of electric power

  21. THE MONITORING PROGRAM OF THE IRON GATE ON DANUBE RIVERIMAPCTS OF THE IRON GATE DAMS • Safe navigation

  22. THE MONITORING PROGRAM OF THE IRON GATE ON DANUBE RIVERIMAPCTS OF THE IRON GATE DAMS

  23. THE MONITORING PROGRAM OF THE IRON GATE ON DANUBE RIVERIMAPCTS OF THE IRON GATE DAMS

  24. MINISTRY OF AGRICULTURE, FORESTRY AND WATER MANAGEMENT-DIRECTORATE OF WATER- THE MONITORING PROGRAM OF THE IRON GATE ON DANUBE RIVER THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION THANKS TO FRANSE THANKS TO MACEDONIA THANKS TO FRANCE EMBASY

  25. QUESTION AGAIN-IS THE RESERVOIR OF IRON GATE I BLACK POINT OF BALCAN PENISULA OR NOT SO BLACK ??? MERITA BOROTA merita.borota@minpolj.sr.gov.yu karamuco_1@yahoo.com
