Rainwater and Meltwater in Urban Areas – Sustainable Management of Water Resources

Abstracts

EN
The audit conducted by NIK, dedicated to management of rainwater and meltwa ter in urban areas, shows that, despite climate changes and the consistently lowering level of groundwater, a strategy for management of water from atmospheric precipi tation has not been developed to date. The activity of the Polish Waters State Holding (Polish: Państwowe Gospodarstwo Wodne Wody Polskie) related to the management of such waters, has not been systemic and mainly comprised its statutory tasks such as, among other, judicature related to issuing legal permissions and, what is more, in the majority of the audited entities irregularities have been found. Investments relat ed to management of rainwater and meltwater in urban areas were mostly realised by local self-government units, and they were mostly aimed at preventing local floods and permeations due to violent downpours. Only some cities dealt with possibilities to manage rainwater and meltwater and introduced incentives to encourage residents to collect and use this kind of water. The audit also showed that some cities channelled rainwater andmelt water without legal permissions, and unduly met their obligations to collect charges for reducing natural retention. Insufficient cooperation among local self-government units and the organisational units of the Polish Waters State Holding further reduced the effectiveness of the system of charges set forth in the law on water, which had been aimed to encourage lower channelling of rain water and melt water, and to introduce solutions to ensure natural retention preservation.

Zachodzące zmiany klimatyczne i systematyczne obniżanie się w Polsce poziomu wód gruntowych nie skłoniły podmiotów odpowiedzialnych do opracowania jednolitej strategii dotyczącej zagospodarowania wód pochodzących z opadów atmosferycznych, która określałaby cele i konieczne do podjęcia działania. Efektywne gospodarowanie w miastach takim zasobem wciąż nie jest w Polsce zjawiskiem powszechnym. W wyniku zaniechań znaczna ilość wód opadowych i roztopowych nie jest w ogóle wykorzystywana. W 2017 r. dokonano zmiany ustawy – Prawo wodne aby przeciwdziałać ich marnotrawstwu. Wprowadzone rozwiązania miały zachęcać do zmian w sposobie gospodarowania wodami, a także racjonalnego wykorzystywania. Kontrola NIK wykazała, że tak się nie stało.
