Innovative methods of Barta river basin management system

The project “Bārta Club” was created with the objective to get involved in the creation of the plan of the Bārta river management, in order to reduce the pollution level in the catchment area of the Bārta river, creating an innovative river basin management system in Latvia. An additional objective was through pilot projects to show what the opportunities exist to improve the condition of drinking water for small size (up to 2000 inhabitants) local governments. The project has resulted in an improved quality of drinking water in the local governments involved in the project and the pollution level in the Bārta river has decreased.
